Sara Parkman performed at Stockholm Concert Hall on Sunday, 18 October 2026 for a gala concert celebrating Ersta diakoni's 175th anniversary. The blue neoclassical building, designed by Ivar Tengbom and opened in 1926 at Hötorget, is home to the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra and one of the city's premier concert venues. The gala brought together several prominent artists alongside Gustaf Sjökvists chamber choir. Parkman is on an extensive Swedish tour with nine dates across autumn 2026, with the Stockholm concert marking a significant point on this touring schedule.
