The Konserthus in Oslo, officially Oslo Concert Hall, opened in 1974 and serves as the primary venue for the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra. Designed by architects Arkitektgruppen AS, it’s notable for its acoustics, achieved through careful planning and the use of specific materials – including birch veneer throughout the main hall. The building also houses smaller performance spaces and rehearsal rooms.

The Konserthus is situated near the city's harbor and is considered an important landmark in Norwegian cultural life. It underwent significant renovation between 2020 and 2023 to improve accessibility, technical facilities, and further refine its acoustic properties. The hall regularly hosts international orchestras, soloists, and ensembles alongside performances by Norwegian musicians.
