Parkteatret Review

This must be Oslo's perhaps best concert venue, they weren't nasty in the door and inside it was magical

Cool small place with one bar on each side, and not too crowded when I was there. Short way to toilets which are nice enough

Cozy cafe. The chairs are a little uncomfortable, but the rest was good

Nice scene and office space. You do best with a stooor party bladder.

One of Oslo's best scenes with everything from different music and events, close cool bars and eateries on the loop. Lots of great concerts!

Intimate place with good sound. The bar solution is not entirely optimal. We were very disturbed by bar guests who wandered a lot back and forth.

Nice, intimate concert venue with good acoustics. But why on earth no wardrobe? November and cold degrees after all!

Very good medium-sized scene, with everything from small to quite large artists and bands.

Awful toilet facilities and scary few of them (is that at all allowed ??). The bar also has shit selection and the mushroom tastes plastic. Thank goodness they have a great club concept like Club Loveless.

Lovely concert scene. Good visibility, good sound, and suitable size for a good and intimate concert experience. Will go here again, and also actively search for more concerts that are arranged here. Thumbs up!

Intimate, good sound and easy to see the scene from all sides!

Poor selection on the menu, lousy service, zero charm.

This is a decent scene with good sound. Have been here twice and been reasonably disappointed by those who work there. A moshpit that was very violent, that went beyond the audience that was not part of it. And another experience where several were asked to go because the concert was over, because the person who worked had not agreed that there should be a signing after the concert. So I experience that those who work there are unprofessional and it is stupid that it ruins the concert experience

Nice place, but it is unnecessary to play so loud that the PA turns and the whole room shakes.

A great small personal scene location, the only drawback is having nowhere to put jackets.

Nice comedy venue. Seated and standing for audience with two bars for drinks.

A bit too much people in the same place when it's full but the sound is great.

The Park Theater is a very good place for smaller concerts. There is generally a very good view of the stage no matter where in the room you are. This is largely due to the floor sloping down towards the stage. With two bars in the relatively small room, you usually grind beer queues. The sound in the Park Theater is also completely usable.

Nice area for concerts but alcohol is way too expensive for what you get

A great bar and seriously one of the special venues in the city.

There are wonderful nice people who work at the Park Theater! They are both accommodating and helpful. Everything should be in order to have a good experience.

Among one of the better stages that offer music in Norway. A must visit!

Good environment, maybe it was because of the expensive beer that there were a few there?

A nice intimate venue for live music. No matter how many people you're never too far from the stage!

Great concert venue, but they don't have a coat room, which is quite annoying in winter!

Parkenteateret is one of my favourite concert venues that I like to go too. It's not too big, and can get a bit cramped when there are bigger concerts. Though it's part of it's charm. The sound of the concert is definitely better than a concert at Telenor Arena!

Nice enough concert venue, but very crowded with wardrobe.

Kind staff and great sound - always glad to perform here!

Fantastic concert with Novo Amor! But the sound might have been a little better.

Just stood by when I was in, good drink sales with two bars in different sizes, Norwegian prices. Decent size of the room and good atmosphere but became a bit noisy at times. Unless you're there for stage shows, I would recommend standing a little distance away from scena.

Small and intimite venue with great sound! #AnnaofTheNorth

Of Oslo's many fine concert venues, this is my favorite!

Intimate and fine concert venue. Bar, audience and scene in one

Small but nice venue with two bars to help alleviate any thirst you might have.

Decent concert venue with allright stage and sound/lights, but not a nice place to hang out. Closes once the concerts are finished.

Great small venue, the place to see big names before they become famous.

Nice little venue although it can get overly crowded. Beer selection is a bit simple. The stairs inside the concert hall can be a bit of a trap of you're not cautious

It's a real good concert venue and the audience is very well exposed to the stage.

Of all the concerts I've been to in Oslo this place has had the most memorable ones

Nice place to have a drink. Nice service, cool music :-)

Too loud sound, took 15-20 min before it was fixed.

Parkteatret Bar is a very nice place to have a drink, especially in combination with an event on their stage. If you are particularly fond of beer or single malt whiskey, they have a great selection to enjoy! On the first Saturday of the month, you can hear django-inspired jazz being played by the lively band of the Oslo Radio Orchestra between 15 - 18. (Yes, two words. No, no hyphen.) This event is completely free.

Something else that is definitely worth taking is the Blue Canvas, a monthly film meeting where you get to see tastings of upcoming feature films and documentaries. Directors and some actors are present and are interviewed and can answer questions from the audience. This costs about NOK 60, and is very worth it.
