Nieu Scene Torshov
Vogts gate 64, 0477 Oslo 2 hours
This is the larger Nieu stage, located in the old Soria Moria building at Torshov. They often have English shows, which is great if your date isn't a local. The venue has its own bar and the view is good from most seats. It’s a bit more chilled than the Løkka spot, but just as fun.
Why it works
A good choice if you want entertainment without the usual downtown chaos.
What to order
Check if it's an English-speaking night if needed, and just take the tram up.
Best time to go
Friday and Saturday night.
What it costs
200–450 NOK per person
