The entry of king Gustav Vasa into Stockholm 1523
Midsummer 2023 marks 500 years since Gustav Eriksson Vasa entered Stockholm after a war that is more than two years long. We want to celebrate this with a large reenactment of the entry into a historical parade that will involve many different groups of participants, all related to the day and time.
Come and celebrate the 500th anniversary of Stockholm’s liberation and Sweden’s independence!
