About the venue: Ångfartyget S/S Blidösund - Norrtälje

S/S Blidösund is a steam ship built in 1911 that served the Stockholm archipelago for over a century. Now moored in Norrtälje harbour, the vessel is a listed historic monument and functions as an event venue for concerts, private parties and cultural gatherings. Its original salon interiors give a genuine feel of early 20th-century passenger shipping.
