News and updates

Sweden Rock 2019 is rapidly approaching. Our ambition is, of course, to offer this year's visitors a really nice festival experience, with focus on good music, high service and security.

 

Most things on the festival area will be the same as always, but below you can read about a selection of new additions and upgrades:

 

- We are increasing capacity and improving the access to toilets. In addition to the large lavatory villages from last year, we are adding two more. One between Rock and Festival Stage, and one by the Sweden-Stage area.

 

- We are increasing the festival surface by adding a new food area (read the piece of news about The Smoke Pit from a few days ago!), and also increasing the size of the VIP-area.

 

- The fresh water function in the partner-activity area returns, and we are also adding another fresh-water tap next to the disability ramp. The water posts by the toilets from last year will of course remain as well. 

 

- 2019 will be the first year when you can pay with your credit card in all of our bars. (But cash is still acceptable if that is your preferred choice.)

 

- The festival area will offer four Wi-Fi hotspots; one in the main bar, one by the Staropramen bar (sun deck) , one in The Smoke Pit and one the VIP area. 

 

- The Staropramen bar will get a larger sun deck, and the Brooklyn bar will double in size and move to an area between Festival Stage and the VIP area.

 

- In the area between Sweden Stage and Rock Stage, we will open a Jacobs-Creek wine bar, offering an organic range of wine by the glass. 

 

- As always, your safety is at the top of our agenda, and something that we work extra hard with improving each year. One addition we can mention, is that we will this year team the hosts and hostesses patrolling the area with HLR-educated personnel. Each team will also carry a portable defibrillator with them at all times.

CONFIRMED: TALISMAN - A TRIBUTE TO MARCEL JACOB We're incredibly happy to announce that Talisman - A Tribute to Marcel Jacob is confirmed for this summer's festival! Marcel Jacob (1964-2009) who would've turned 60 this year, was Talisman's bassist and undisputed leader. In his honor, the band's music will be performed by his surviving bandmates - singer Jeff Scott Soto, guitarist Fredrik Åkesson and drummer Jamie Borger. Bassist Johan Niemann (Evergrey) completes the lineup, in a way that guarantees that classics like "I'll be waiting", "Mysterious" and "Colour my XTC" will be played in a way worthy of one of Sweden's greatest hard rock bands ever. Right now, there's...

TWIN TEMPLE out, LUCIFER in! Unfortunately, we have to announce that TWIN TEMPLE is canceling their performance at Sweden Rock Festival 2024. At the same time, we are pleased to announce that they will be replaced by LUCIFER! Heavy retro rockers Lucifer were formed by German singer Johanna Sadonis and debut album "Lucifer I" arrived in 2015. Then Sadonis teamed up with songwriting partner and drummer Nicke Andersson (Hellacopters, ex-Entombed) and moved the band to Stockholm. Lucifer's sound is based on analogue arrangements, predominantly 70s' influences, and occult overtones. Every album has reinformed their positions as rising stars on the scene, a development likely to continue...
