Is Oslo Central Station open at night?
Station hours, Østbanehallen, lockers and ticket sales.
Short answer
No, Oslo Central Station closes at night: the station and its waiting areas are open every day from 03:45 to 01:30. Østbanehallen, with shops and places to eat, opens at 04:30 and also closes at 01:30. The luggage lockers cannot be reached while the station is closed, so collect your bags before 01:30.
Why
- Vy states that the station and waiting areas are open every day from 03:45 to 01:30.
- Visit Oslo gives the same station hours and lists Østbanehallen, with shops, eateries, a hotel and the Oslo Visitor Centre, as open 04:30–01:30.
- Visit Norway notes that the luggage lockers cannot be accessed while the station is closed at night.
Details
Bane NOR gives the ticket office hours at Oslo S as 06:30–23:15 on weekdays and 10:00–18:00 on Saturdays and Sundays. The staffed toilets in the station hall cost NOK 20, payable by card or cash. Visit Norway says the lockers can be reached again from 04:30, later than the station opens.
Tip
If you arrive late or leave very early, plan where to wait: Oslo Bus Terminal is closed at night too, as its building is open only from 05:15 to 00:55.
