About Visfestivalen i Västervik

The Västervik singer-songwriter festival has been held every summer since 1966, always in the Stegeholm castle ruin with the moat and archipelago as its backdrop. Generations of Sweden’s greatest songwriters have stood on this stage, and the festival is considered the true home of the Swedish "visa" tradition.

The format is loved for its simplicity: summer evenings, a ruin with centuries-old walls, and artists meeting the audience up close. Many attendees have come every year for decades.
