Stockholm hosts of Europride 2008!
Some people say that if there was ever a capital city designed by gay people for gay people, Stockholm would be it!
"It's the capital of the country that gave us the classic gay-icon band ABBA"
See one of the worlds most beautiful cities and take part in the event of the year - Europride 2008, July 25 - August 3.
Built on 14 islands and with one of Europe's largest and best-preserved medieval city centres, Stockholm is superbly positioned, with stunning and extremely varied scenery in every direction. Stockholm itself is a city of contrasts - water and islands, history and innovation, small town and big city, short winter days and long, light summer nights - offering a dazzling array of impressions. And as the city is compact in size with everything within easy reach, this is a perfect destination for city breaks or longer stays, all year round.
Gay life in Stockholm is like the city itself: easy accessible, hugely fun, highly varied, warm and welcoming in a laid-back, typically Scandinavian type of way. It's the capital of the country that gave us the classic gay-icon band ABBA. It's the Capital of Scandinavia and in the summer of 2008 it will once again be the Gay Capital of Europe, when it hosts Europride for the second time in just ten years. The festival theme 'Swedish sin breaking borders' stems from the 60's equal rights movements and attitude toward sexual politics and liberation in Sweden.
Welcome to Stockholm!
