Upcoming Events in Stockholm this weekend

Planning a trip to the Swedish capital, or maybe you are a local seeking out the best tickets, either way, SeatPick has you covered.

Located in the south of the country, Stockholm blends island views, historic streets, and a lively events scene, so there is almost always a game, concert, or attraction worth building into your trip. Sorting your Stockholm tickets in advance makes it easier to match venues and sights to the days you are in the city and avoid queues at peak times.

Why buy Stockholm tickets via SeatPick?

SeatPick helps you plan your visit by putting sports, music, and attraction tickets in one place so you can compare options before you travel. You can filter by date, price, and section, choose between a single ticket for one venue or passes that cover several days, and then book in just a few clicks.

• Each option clearly explains what your entrance covers and how long the ticket is valid, so you know exactly what to bring and how the ticket will be checked at the doors.
• Confirmations arrive to your inbox or app, meaning you just scan your ticket on arrival instead of stopping to buy on the day.
• Seeing arena dates, palace visits, and island tours side by side helps you map out which areas to explore on which day and how to connect them by metro, tram, and buses.
• You can narrow results by age category and seating area, making it simple to pick the right view in the stadium or the best time of day for a museum or boat tour.
• Checking details ahead of time also helps you avoid days when a museum is closed or a tour runs a shorter route, reducing the risk of last‑minute changes.

Top Stockholm sports teams

Stockholm’s clubs play in some of Sweden’s best‑known stadiums and arenas, many of them on direct public‑transport routes. Fans can easily combine a match with sightseeing earlier in the day.

AIK, Hammarby IF, and Djurgårdens IF

Friends Arena in Solna is home to AIK and also hosts Sweden’s men’s national football team, making it a focal point of the local football scene. Tele2 Arena in Johanneshov is shared by Hammarby IF and Djurgårdens IF, so across a typical week there are multiple chances to catch top‑flight Swedish matches depending on the schedule.

Ice hockey around Avicii Arena and Hovet

Around Avicii Arena and neighbouring Hovet you will find strong ice‑hockey traditions, with clubs such as Djurgårdens IF Hockey drawing loyal crowds. These venues sit in the southern part of the city and are easy to reach by metro, which makes it straightforward to slot an evening game into a day that already includes museums or other sights.

Top Stockholm music venues

Stockholm has a long musical history and a wide range of venues, from domes to theatre‑style rooms and clubs. Booking ahead lets you pick your preferred room size and location and fit shows neatly around your daytime plans.

Avicii Arena

Avicii Arena, formerly the Ericsson Globe, is a landmark indoor dome that hosts major concerts and special events. Tickets are usually offered in several price levels, and advance purchase makes it easier to secure the balance of view and cost you want and to rely on mobile entry at the gate.

Friends Arena

Friends Arena also operates as a concert venue for stadium‑scale tours, bringing global artists to Solna with capacities that exceed most indoor halls. For these high‑demand nights, it is smart to book early, check which entrance your section uses, and confirm that your mobile ticket will be accepted at the doors.

Cirkus and other mid‑sized venues

Cirkus on Djurgården is a classic theatre‑style venue, hosting Swedish and international artists, comedy, and special events in a more intimate setting. Mid‑sized halls and clubs such as Debaser Strand and Södra Teatern add smaller rooms where you stand or sit closer to the stage for a different feel than the big arenas.

Top Stockholm attractions tickets

Many of Stockholm’s top sights sit on or near the water, with Djurgården and Gamla Stan especially rich in museums and viewpoints. Buying tickets in advance helps you choose which attraction to visit on which day and then link them by public transport or boat.

• Djurgården is home to several flagship museums and attractions that offer either single‑entry or combined tickets, making it easy to cover more than one stop on the same visit.
• Drottningholm Palace, on the shores of Lake Mälaren, can be reached by boat in season or by public transport at other times, and often offers the option of a guided tour inside the palace.
• Hop‑on, hop‑off tours by bus or boat let you see multiple neighbourhoods in a single day, and tickets typically spell out in English how long they remain valid and which stops are included.

Checking the details before you buy also tells you when reduced prices apply for children, from what age an adult fare is charged, and whether certain days or months have shorter opening hours.

Planning your Stockholm visit

To get the most from a few days in Stockholm, it helps to decide in advance which sights and tours you want to fit into each day and how to move between them. With SeatPick, you can find and book Stockholm tickets before you arrive, receive confirmations on your phone, and then simply scan valid tickets at each entrance.

By lining up museum visits, Drottningholm Palace, island boat trips, and evening events with metro, tram, and bus routes, your journey through the city becomes smoother, and you spend more time on experiences rather than on logistics.

Booking early via SeatPick also reduces the chances of sold‑out days or awkward gaps, leaving you free to focus on Stockholm’s food, views, and waterfront atmosphere.
