WELCOME TO SWEDEN ROCK FESTIVAL, June 9-12 2021

The Sweden Rock office is now closing for summer vacation. We'll be back mid-august, revved up and ready to put together a kick-ass festival for 2021!   As mentioned, next year's festival will offer a bigger and better festival area - complete with a new wine garden, kid's corner, more seating, toilets and of course more great food to choose from. In other words, more space and better comfort all around!   We are very grateful that so many of you chose to keep your tickets! However, this also means that the number of available tickets for 2021 will be limited. We have not yet set a time and date for ticket on-sale, but we promise to let you know well in advance.   Discussions with artist are ongoing, progressing, and will continue over the summer. More information about the line-up for 2021 will of course be revealed in good time before tickets are made available.   With that said, we want to wish all of our Sweden Rock friends a really amazing summer! Take care of each other and stay

We would like to send a great big Thank You to all of you who chose to keep your festival ticket for 2021. Your choice means a lot to us, and we are very happy and grateful!   Opportunity to upgrade tickets A few days before the 2021 tickets go on sale, a ticket upgrade will be offered to you. This means that - if you desire and as far as the capacity allows - it will be possible to upgrade a 3-day ticket to a 4-day or a 4-day VIP. It will also be possible to upgrade 1-day ticket to a 3-day, 4-day or 4-day VIP, and a 4-day ticket to a VIP.   It has not yet been decided when in time the tickets will go on sale, but rest assure that information about the date will be shared ahead of time. Detailed information about exactly how an upgrade is requested will also be posted later on.   Switch day for 1-day tickets Before the new 1-day tickets go on sale, it will also be possible to switch day for your 1-day ticket. If you do, you will keep the value of your ticket. More details about this wi

It has come to our attention that some of you who are planning to keep your 2020-ticket for 2021, also are interested in a ticket upgrade. Hence we have looked into the matter, and it has now become clear that this is possible.   Therefore, a ticket upgrade will be offered a few days before the 2021 tickets go on sale. (It is not yet decided when in time the tickets will go on sale, but rest assure that information about the date will be shared ahead of time.)   This means that - for those who desire and as far as the capacity allows - it will be possible to upgrade a 3-day ticket to a 4-day or a 4-day VIP. It will also be possible to upgrade 1-day ticket to a 3-day, 4-day or 4-day VIP, and a 4-day ticket to a VIP.   Detailed information about exactly how this is done - and when - will be sent out further on, so keep a lookout.

In the last few weeks we have been working hard investigating the possibilities to reschedule the 2020 festival from June to the end of the summer. For a while it looked doable, as we received a very positive response to the plan from artists, suppliers and collaborators. However, due to the unprecedented situation it has now become clear that cancelling is unavoidable. Instead we are now focusing our efforts towards 2021.   For many of you, our visitors, Sweden Rock Festival is one of the highlights of the year. The festival is also of great importance to a number of others, such as crew staff, suppliers, partners, associations, camp sites, hotels and more. A lot of people have been working hard for a very long time to prepare for another sold out event. Hence, we put a lot of energy and time into exploring alternative options. We are now taking all that hard work and enthusiasm and putting it towards 9-12 June 2021. We promise to make next year's festival the best one ever!   Associa

Like the rest of the world, we are closely following the development of the Covid-19 pandemic and its consequences with horror. Our national authority guidelines and decisions change almost daily, and we know as little as everyone else about when the epidemic may be over and life can begin to return to normal.   In recent weeks, we have been working diligently to investigate the possibilities of postponing the festival.   Since there are so many people involved (artists, crew, employees, suppliers, partners, authorities, etc.) and there are so many different issues to look through, we ask for your patience and understanding that we need a little more time. We also ask for understanding that we will not be able to communicate any details about this until we have made absolutely sure what is possible and what is not. No later than mid-April, we will give you detailed information about this year''s festival, why and what is going to happen moving forward.    /The Sweden Rock Festival Mana

We understand that many of you are wondering what''s going to happen, but we would like to assure you that we are still continuing the preparations for our upcoming festival.    We are following the developments and guidelines carefully, and if there are any change to our plans we will of course inform you about it. 

Last night, the Swedish government decided to - for the time being - restrict all gatherings of more than 500 people. Since then, many of you have contacted us with questions regarding how this will affect the festival.   We understand that the current situation is contributing to a worry and stress, but as there are still several months to go until the festival, the plan to go through with Sweden Rock Festival the 3-6th June still stands. We will therefore continue to work hard at preparing for a great experience this summer.   We will continue to monitor the situation, with highest regard to the safety and wellbeing of our visitors and staff. All decisions we make will be made according to regulations in place, and in dialogue with the authorities in charge.

We are happy to announce the following twelve additions to this summer's festival poster: One of Sweden's biggest and most influential rock bands,  The Hellacopters , reformed for SRF 2016 and will now return to Sölvesborg by popular demand. And so will the classic 70's band  10cc , known for hits like "I´m not in love", "Dreadlock holiday", "The things we do for love" and many more.
