Øyafestivalen is an annual Norwegian music festival held in the Tøyen Park, Oslo.
It has grown quickly since its modest start in 1999 and has become one of Norway's biggest and most important music festivals.
[1] The festival has previously featured musicians like Kanye West, Sonic Youth, Iggy and The Stooges, Arctic Monkeys, Babyshambles, Morrissey, and Beck.
Contrary to popular belief, it is not the same festival as the old Kalvøyafestivalen, which was also held at Kalvøya.
[3] Then, in 2014, as construction works made it impossible to hold the festival in Middelalderparken, it was moved to the Tøyen Park.
