Lara Wong live in Oslo

Experience Lara Wong live on August 16th

Lara Wong will perform at Melahuset as part of Melafestivalen in Oslo, Norway on August 16, 2026. Wong is a Norwegian-Chinese artist known for her blend of electronic music with elements of traditional Chinese instrumentation and vocals. Her style often incorporates ambient textures, experimental sound design, and themes exploring cultural identity and personal narratives. She frequently utilizes field recordings and processed sounds alongside synthesized elements, creating atmospheric and emotionally resonant compositions.

Melahuset is a cultural center in Oslo established in 1983, initially as a meeting place for immigrant communities, particularly those with ties to the Middle East and North Africa. It has since broadened its scope to encompass a wider range of cultural expressions and serves as a venue for music, art, and dialogue.

Melafestivalen, the larger festival within which this concert takes place, is an annual multicultural arts festival held in Oslo. Established in 1999, it aims to promote diversity and intercultural understanding through music, dance, theatre, literature, food and other artistic expressions.
