NORRÖNA Transports 1 in 50 Faroese Citizens to Oslo
NORRÖNA, the ferry operated by Smyril Line, is set to transport a significant number of Faroese citizens to Oslo. With a capacity of 1,482 passengers, the vessel will depart from Tórshavn on January 14, 2024, and is scheduled to arrive in Oslo on January 16, 2024. This journey is particularly important as it will accommodate supporters traveling for a major sports event.
NORRÖNA’s Role in Supporting Faroese Fans
Once in Oslo, NORRÖNA will serve as both a hotel and a base for Faroese fans during their stay. The ferry will dock at Akershuskaia, which is recognized as Oslo’s most centrally located cruise pier. This strategic location will allow easy access for supporters attending various activities related to the event.

According to Smyril Line, all 1,000 allocated spots for this special trip have sold out swiftly. This means that nearly 1 in 50 citizens of the Faroe Islands will join the voyage to Oslo.

This transportation initiative highlights NORRÖNA’s significance not just as a ferry, but as a vital link for communities united by sports. The event will provide an opportunity for Faroese supporters to connect in a festive atmosphere while showcasing their spirit in Oslo.
