Welcome to a family day filled with folk cultures from near and far! Out of the treasure chest flows music, dance, and cultural expressions from all over the world. And the best part – everyone gets to join in! Outdoors, the area comes alive with free activities, workshops, mini-concerts, shows, magic, and delightful food stalls from every corner of the globe. Indoors, we invite you to a Treasure Hunt, where you will be guided through three unique performances featuring fabulous musicians and dancers.
The real treasures are everything you experience, see, hear, and take part in.
Join the treasure hunt!
Skattekista at Schous - 30. august 2025 at Riksscenen
Skattekista at Rommen - 6. september 2025 at Rommen scene
Skattekista is being established as a brand new family festival in Groruddalen!
Skattekista at Rommen is a free-standing offshoot of Skattekista at Schous, which for the past five years has brought children together at and around Riksscenen in Grünerløkka, Oslo. In 2025, Samspill International Music Network will take the helm of the festival and expand it with an additional Skattekiste, at Rommen Scene.
During the last weekend of August (at Riksscenen) and the first weekend of September (at Rommen scene), children aged 0 to 12 years and their families are invited to a festival with concerts, performances, and a wide range of workshops and activities. The festival is a low-threshold offer for families living in the area. The program is composed of professional acts and local cultural initiatives.
Here, children get to experience cultural treasures from many places in the world. They get to try for themselves, do it together with their family, and feel both curiosity, surprise, and recognition. We hope the festival will help strengthen local identity, pride, and community.
Skattekista at Rommen is initiated by Samspill International Music Network and Riksscenen. It is organized by Samspill in collaboration with Rommen Scene and local arts and cultural actors in and around Rommen Scene.
Skattekista at Schous is initiated by Riksscenen and organized in collaboration with Samspill.
