Allt ljus på Uppsala

Experience Allt ljus på Uppsala – With Us as Your Starting Point

Right now, from November 6 to 22, Uppsala’s city center transforms into a sparkling open-air exhibition during the annual light festival Allt ljus på Uppsala. Every evening between 4:00 PM and 10:00 PM, thirteen unique artworks by both Swedish and international artists illuminate streets, squares, and facades in the November darkness.

This year’s theme is “Courage. Patience.” (“Mod. Tålamod.”) – an artistic reminder of the courage required to change old habits and the patience needed to build a sustainable future. From Akademihotellet’s peaceful and historic neighborhood on Övre Slottsgatan, you are within easy walking distance of the entire light trail. Take an evening stroll through the city, then return to our warm hospitality for a restful night’s sleep and a delicious breakfast buffet.

Tip: The light installations are completely free to visit. A map and more information about all installations and side events can be found at alltljuspauppsala.se.
