A collective hospitality that strengthens Stockholm

Every major event in Stockholm leaves an impact far beyond the arenas. When people gather, new meetings, ideas, and demands for experiences and services arise – creating opportunities for those operating here.

Stockholm City of Supporters brings together companies, associations, organisers, and Stockholmers in a collective host role for the city’s major events and championships. For you, this means the chance to become part of the overall experience, reach new target groups, and gain visibility in a context defined by engagement and international attention.

As an actor in Stockholm, you contribute to the city's attractiveness. By engaging in this host role, you can develop your business, strengthen your brand, and create new collaborations – while Stockholm continues to grow as an event city. When we join forces for the city's events, we build more than just a momentary celebration – we build a better Stockholm, for today and the future.
