FESTIVAL: NYTORGSFESTEN
Söder’s annual day party returns to Nytorget this weekend. Nytorgsfesten offers live music, food trucks, DJs, films viewings, flea markets and more, and say that their aim is to replicate the vibe of the Notting Hill Carnival in Stockholm. That goal might be difficult to pull off, but it promises to be a good party at least.
Aug 17, 18, 19, 18:00/12:00-01:00
VINYL MARKET: FOOLS GOLD
Stockholm’s independent music scene has always been pretty healthy, with large numbers of artists and labels operating and doing exciting things outside the major label system. And it might be about to get a boost. Fool’s Gold Stockholm is a new festival and market, set to open for the first time at Tantolunden on August 18 with vinyl on sale from labels including PNKSLM Recordings, Lazy Octopus Records, Rama Lama Records, Adrian Recordings, Birds Records, Hybris, Strangers Candy, Welfare Sounds, Novoton, Rundgång Rekords, Startracks, Maternal Voice and Youth Recordings, and performances from artists including Mira Aasma and Kluster.

GIG: PNKSLM SECRET SESSIONS
PNKSLM has a new project. The label has announced that they’ll be running a series of intimate concerts this summer at Bar Brillo. This Friday marks the last of them, and having already featured Henrik Appel, Gestures and Shitkit, the last artist is for the moment still a secret. Who knows?

It all kicks off at 12:00 on Friday.
