It will reflect a universal truth, that people make a city, that these people come from different background and have different stories.

Gothenburg is uniquely positioned. A port city, it has been a gateway for welcoming people, music and ideas.
Design
From it's formative Jazz and Blues clubs of the 50’s, where imported LPs would find there way from the docks into the hands of musicians and music lovers, through to Beat, Psych & Prog and the counter culture politics of the 60’s and 70’s, to the city’s engagement with appetite for contemporary music, Gothenburg has always listened.
