The 2025 Oslo Cup was held from August 28 to 31 at the Snarøya Curling Club in Oslo, Norway. The event was held in a round robin format with a purse of NOK 112,000 on the men's side and NOK 78,000 on the women's side. It was the first event of the 2025–26 Nordic Curling Tour.
On the men's side, the John Shuster rink, skipped by Chris Plys and playing as three, won the United States' first Oslo Cup title, defeating Sweden's Niklas Edin 7–2 in a rematch of the 2018 Olympic final. Plys, with teammates Matt Hamilton and Colin Hufman, finished 4–1 through the round robin. They then beat Andreas Hårstad in the quarterfinals and Jan Iseli in the semifinal to qualify for the championship game. Conversely, Team Edin earned the eighth playoff seed with a 3–2 record before knocking off previously undefeated Cameron Bryce in the quarters and Mathias Genner in a semifinal rematch from the round robin. Yves Stocker and Orrin Carson rounded out the playoff field.
In the women's event, Xenia Schwaller's Swiss rink won 7–2 over Norway's Torild Bjørnstad in a battle of previously undefeated teams. Both teams earned a bye to the semifinals following 4–0 round robin records where they beat Dilşat Yıldız and Team Constantini respectively. Yıldız advanced to the semis with a 4–2 win over Moa Dryburgh in the quarterfinals while Constantini stole in an extra end to eliminate Marianne Rørvik.
