On our last festival club for 2025, we’re throwing a proper bash – join us!

A customary part of any performance includes bows, applause and often showering the artists with flowers, in both bunches and bouquets. Like the performing arts, flowers are full of life, color, and beauty, yet destined to wither and fade with time. In true theatrical spirit, we gather to express our gratitude to artists, the festival team, volunteers and visitors alike. Bring a bouquet, a wreath, or even a single rose and show your appreciation to whoever you wish! 

The theatre group Administrationen wraps up their 33-hour performance Actor in a cage, the winner of the Antonia Award is announced, and DJs Malin Nyqvist and Friday, the Professor guide us across a blooming dance floor through the last sweaty night of the festival. Let’s celebrate life, summer and theatre – all fleeting but no less precious!

Long live the theatre festival!
