On September 13, Sweden goes to the polls. One of the most burning questions in cultural policy is: who will pay?
Sweden is at the bottom of Nordic countries in terms of cultural funding – both in public funds and how much visitors take out of their wallets. Why? And what culture should be financed? Tonight’s panel has different perspectives on how money should be prioritized – is any art, music, literature, drama or target group more important than any other? The panel includes actor Elin Skarin.
At Konserthuset’s culture evenings, we take a look at Gothenburg’s cultural life. With exciting guests and challenging ideas, we look beyond the borders and see the possibilities. Join us too. The conversation is led by Johan Hilton, author and cultural director at GP.
Wednesday 2 September 2026: The event ends at approx. 20.15
