Järvaveckan (Järva Week)

Stockholm, Sweden

Democratic innovationFestivalNational

Democracy festival held since 2016 at the Spånga sports ground in Järva, north-west Stockholm, driven by the foundation Stiftelsen Järvaveckan. It brings parties, companies, public bodies and associations to the northern neighbourhoods of the city with the stated aim of making use of the strength of diversity and inclusion, with free entry and close to 50,000 visits a year. After its tenth edition (May 2026), the foundation and the City of Stockholm are negotiating a new and more sustainable format, so its continuity in its current form is open.
