Children’s Walpurgis – Music, Choral Singing and a Children’s Bonfire
Location: Sollidenplan, 17:00–18:00 (the small bonfire is lit at 17:30)
New this year is Children’s Walpurgis – an earlier and slightly calmer celebration designed for our youngest guests. Here, children and adults can experience Walpurgis together in a format suited to children’s rhythm and evening routines. Food and refreshments will be available for purchase on site.
The programme begins at 17:00 with music and traditional choral singing of classic Walpurgis songs. At 17:30, the smaller spring bonfire is lit, and the celebration concludes at 18:00.
Children’s Walpurgis is especially suitable for children aged approximately 3–9 – and for anyone who would like to welcome spring before it gets too late in the evening.
Traditional Walpurgis Celebration – Spring Speech, Choral Singing, Music and Bonfire
Location: Solliden Stage, 20:30–22:00 (the bonfire is lit at 21:00)
In the evening, the traditional Walpurgis celebration continues at the Solliden Stage. The programme features a traditional spring speech, choral singing and musical entertainment before the large bonfire is lit at 21:00. As the flames rise and the songs of spring echo across Djurgården, the special Walpurgis atmosphere is created – one that has made the celebration at Skansen a cherished tradition for generations.
More information about the evening stage programme will be presented shortly.
