The outdoor seating area sits right down by the Akerselva river and is one of the city’s most laid-back meeting spots. In summer it’s open seven days a week. In winter, people gather around the firepit at weekends, enjoying the cosy atmosphere. Every Sunday there’s a free concert with the Frank Znort Quartet. Inside at Blå, as well as in the bar at Himmel, the programme continues throughout the year with concerts, club nights and various events.
