The Viking Planet Tickets Oslo

The Viking Planet, Oslo's digital Viking museum

The Viking Planet is a modern museum where the Vikings are told through screens, headsets and holograms instead of glass cases. It stands in central Oslo, a good indoor choice on a rainy or cold day, and it is designed for visitors of all ages, from curious children to adults who want history explained in a fresh way.

If you are searching for Viking Planet tickets, this page offers both the museum-only ticket and the combination ticket. Many travellers ask whether the Viking Planet in Oslo is worth it. If you enjoy immersive technology and want to understand the Viking Age quickly, it is a good, fun stop, and it works well alongside the city's traditional museums.

The VR film, the Helmet cinema and the Hologram Theatre

The highlight for many is the VR film, a short prize-winning production that places you on a Viking ship for an ambush on the west coast of Norway. It lasts about twelve minutes and runs frequently, so waiting times are short. The Helmet is a 270-degree cinema that surrounds you with Viking landscapes, and its film starts every quarter of an hour.

In the Hologram Theatre, life-sized holograms of Viking Age people appear in front of you, wearing the armour and clothes of different social classes, all based on archaeological evidence. A documentary called Norvegr and interactive timelines add context about early medieval Scandinavian culture, and each screen is easy to follow.

The Viking ships, the VR game FERÐ and which ticket to choose

The Viking Ship exhibition is a digital walk-through of the world-famous Viking ships from Oseberg and Gokstad, with 3D files of key objects you can turn and explore. It is a good way to see them while the historic Viking Ship Museum on Bygdøy is being redeveloped, so check the latest status before you plan your day.

The combination ticket adds the VR game FERÐ, in which you defend a Viking village and lay siege to rivals. It is for guests aged 12 and over. The museum-only ticket includes the VR movie and all the exhibits except the game, and it suits younger children. Both include an app guide and Wi-Fi.

Opening hours, timing and how to get to The Viking Planet

The Viking Planet opening hours change by day and season, and the booking panel shows entry times for your date. Allow about two hours for the full experience, and book the game if you like interactive challenges. The best time to visit is a weekday morning, when there is less waiting for the VR film and the game.

The venue is in central Oslo, easy to reach on foot, by tram or by metro, and your voucher shows the address. It fits well into a day that includes Karl Johans gate, the Royal Palace or a trip to the Bygdøy museums. The museum is wheelchair-accessible.
