From August 1st to August 3rd, 2023

Stay

  • Grand Hotel

Do/See

  • Have a look inside Hellmans Music Shop to see some old musical relics and get a feel for how music influenced the city

  • Took scooters around the island SoderMalm

  • On Gamla Stan, see the Nobel Prize Museum, walk the streets of Vasterlanggatan, surrounded by a lot of tourists and shops

  • Walked across the Skeppsholmsbron bridge and took a ferry across to Djurgarden for an impromptu stop at Grona Lund

  • Tour the Vasa Museum to see the massive royal viking ship that was unearthed and restored.

  • Visit the ABBA The Museum, sing, record music, watch old videos, see old stage outfits; “walk in singing, leave dancing.”

Eat/Drink

  • A bar called Gemma - a local lively hot spot

  • 800 Grader Slice Shop - some of the best pizza we’ve had (outside of Italy)

  • Lucy’s Flower Shop - great cocktail bar, slightly difficult to find off the street, very cool atmosphere inside with cool lighting 

  • Dinner at Tjoget - a local hipster spot with (you’ll never believe it) great cocktails. Felt like MB Post in Manhattan Beach

  • Röda Huset - one of the top bars with the best casual food, great views of the city and local hospitality with Hampas, the bar magician
