Elsker stenger dørene

Elsker is closing down

Elsker was only able to be part of Lysløypa 2026 for a short while, but for many, this place has meant so much over the years 🌈
A safe dance floor, good vibes, and people who made you feel at home.

Lysløypa is about highlighting and celebrating places like this—welcoming, inclusive spaces that truly matter.

Thank you to everyone who has created, worked at, and danced at Elsker through the years.
The memories live on 🌈✨

When places have to close, it’s painful—and unfortunately beyond our control at Lysløypa 💛 But precisely because this can happen, we’ve included 33 venues in the Lysløypa 2026 book, so you can enjoy even more experiences.

Explore Oslo with Lysløypa!
