The Walpurgis Ball at Uppsala Castle


30 Apr - 1 May

Plats: Uppsala slott

16:00-02:00

The Walpurgis Ball at Uppsala Castle is one of the highlights of spring, attracting guests from all over Sweden every year. Celebrate spring in style with an evening of fine food, drinks and entertainment hosted by Scandinavia’s oldest academic choir, Allmänna Sången. The dinner consists of a three-course meal, lots of singing and performances by Allmänna Sången and beautiful traditions in the spirit of spring.

After dinner, at nine o’clock in the evening, you can listen to the Allmänna Sången at Gunillaklockan in front of the castle, which is also broadcast on national radio. Then the tables are cleared and the hall becomes a dance floor, with live music from Attraktionsorkestern until the early hours of the morning.
The ball is open to anyone over the age of 18 and no student nation card is required. Let the fairy tale come true for an evening and join the Allmänna Sångens valborgsbal at Uppsala Castle!
