Bislett Stadion, Athletics stadium in Oslo, Norway
Bislett Stadion is a competition facility in Oslo featuring eight outdoor running lanes, a heated indoor track spanning 546 meters with two lanes, and a football pitch measuring 105 by 68 meters. The complex integrates multiple training zones and event spaces into a unified sports center.
The facility was built in 1922 on the grounds of a former brick factory, beginning a new chapter in Oslo's sporting infrastructure. A comprehensive rebuild in 2004 by C.F. Møller Architects transformed it to meet contemporary needs.
The stadium takes its name from Thomas Bislett, an early school principal and sports advocate whose legacy shaped Oslo's athletic culture. Visitors witness one of Scandinavia's most significant sporting venues, where athletes from around the world gather to compete.
The site welcomes the public during training hours, with convenient tram and bus connections leading directly to the facility. Visitors should check training schedules beforehand, as competition days may restrict general access.
The venue hosted the Bislett Games tournament where athletes set numerous world records over the decades. This rare concentration of record performances made the place a benchmark in global track and field competition.
