Welcome to Ekkofestival 2024. The festival will be the 21st edition and will offer a wide range of musical and interdisciplinary performances, commissioned works, club nights, installations, performances, and much more in the heart of Bergen.
As always, we look forward to welcoming visitors from Bergen and Norway. Since we want to make the journey and stay for visitors as smooth as possible, we have gathered some practical information on how to get to the city and tips on where to book accommodation.

Travel
Train
The train runs all day to Bergen. To check the actual schedules and/or departure times, visit the website www.vy.no.
If you are traveling via Oslo and need to take the train to Bergen, you must take the airport train from Gardermoen to Jernbanetorget. From there, you will find the platform for Bergen.
Car
Bergen city center is car-friendly, but parking can be quite expensive. For environmental reasons, we advise all visitors to use public transport. Cycling is the fastest way to get around Bergen city center.
Tickets
Tickets can be purchased via Ticketco.
The festival pass grants you full access to the entire festival, and day passes are also available for purchase.
