Oslo’s Øya Festival has revealed the first wave of artists for its 2026 edition, taking place from 12–15 August in Tøyen Park.

The Cure will headline the opening night on 12 August for their only Norwegian show of 2026, with Australian punk-rockers Amyl & The Sniffers confirmed as main support. The Cure are returning seven years after their last headline performance on Tøyen Park’s main stage.

Claes Olsen, Founder of Øya Festival said: “Super excited with this first announcement, as The Cure has been one of my favourite bands since I was a teenager, and they keep on delivering mesmerising shows. Amyl and her band will also be a blast”.

Øya Festival takes place from 12-15 August at Tøyenparken, Oslo. For more information, and to purchase tickets, visit seetickets.com.
