Things to do in Stockholm

All articles
  • Is Stockholm safe to visit?

    Stockholm is generally safe for visitors. The city has a low crime rate and is known for its clean, orderly environment. Petty crimes, such as pickpocketing, can occur, particularly in crowded areas and on public transportation. Staying alert and keeping your belongings secure can help avoid these issues.

    Public transport, including buses and trains, is reliable and safe. However, it's wise to be cautious during late-night travel and remain aware of your surroundings. Some areas may be quieter at night, so it’s best to stick to well-lit and populated streets if you're out after dark.

  • Is Stockholm LGBTQ+ friendly?

    Yes, Stockholm is very LGBTQ+ friendly. The city is known for its progressive attitudes and inclusivity. Stockholm offers a range of LGBTQ+ bars, clubs, and community centers, particularly in the Sodermalm district, which is known for its open and accepting atmosphere.

    The annual Stockholm Pride festival, held in August, is one of the largest in Scandinavia and features a parade, performances, and a variety of events celebrating LGBTQ+ rights and culture. Sweden has strong legal protections for LGBTQ+ individuals, including anti-discrimination laws and marriage equality.

  • When is the best time to visit Stockholm?

    Spring (March to May) offers mild temperatures and blooming parks, providing a pleasant time for exploring the city and enjoying outdoor attractions.

    Summer (June to August) features long daylight hours and warm weather, ideal for sightseeing and outdoor events. It’s also when the city is most vibrant, but be prepared for larger crowds.

    Autumn (September to November) brings cooler temperatures and fewer tourists. The city’s parks are beautifully colored with fall foliage, and it’s a good time for cultural activities.

    Winter (December to February) is cold and dark but offers a charming atmosphere with festive holiday markets and winter activities. It’s quieter and can be more affordable, though daylight hours are very short.

  • How can I be a good tourist in Stockholm?

    Stockholm values calm and quiet in public spaces. Keep noise levels down, especially on public transport and in residential areas. The city is committed to sustainability, so make sure to sort your waste correctly. Recycling bins are clearly marked, and following local guidelines helps maintain cleanliness.

    Swedes value punctuality. If you have reservations or appointments, arrive on time to respect others' schedules and plans. Use polite language and gestures. Swedes appreciate courtesy, so say “tack” (thank you) and maintain a respectful demeanor in interactions.

  • What public holidays/events in Stockholm should I be aware of?

    Midsummer (late June) is one of Sweden’s biggest celebrations, marked by traditional dancing around maypoles, music, and festive food. It’s a lively event, and many local festivities occur in and around the city. Stockholm Pride (August) is a major LGBTQ+ event featuring a colorful parade, parties, and cultural activities celebrating diversity and equality.

    Nobel Prize Ceremony (December 10th) is a significant event with ceremonies at the Stockholm Concert Hall and City Hall. Although tickets are not available to the public, the ceremony attracts many visitors. Christmas Markets (December) are popular in Stockholm, with markets like the one at Gamla Stan offering festive decorations, crafts, and seasonal treats.
