What is the Sweden Rock Festival?

The Story Since Inception

Sweden Rock is not just some random festival that gained popularity because of some marketing agenda but has a long-rooted history. The saga of this festival came into existence in 1992. Initially, the festival was organized in the locality of Olofström and was named Sommarfestivalen i Olofström. 

At the very beginning of the festival, it only lasted for one day as this concept only piqued the interests of nine bands. The next year in 1993, the festival was organized in the Karlshamn locality and was renamed to Karlshamn Rock Festival. This year, more bands showcased interest to be a part of the festival so the event lasted for two days.

In 1998, the festival was moved to Norje locality but no changes were made in the name of the festival. But, the name of the festival changed to Sweden Rock Festival. One more day in the event was added as the participation of the bands increased in 2000.

Post that,  the festival began to last for three days from 2003  to 2006. From 2007 onwards, the number of featured bands rose to 120  and the number of days was expanded to 4 days.

The Sweden Rock Festival has taken place every year since its inception except during the pandemic of Covid-19. For 2020 and 2021, the festival was canceled due to the precautionary measures against the virus.
