From 25 May to 8 June 2019, the Swedish Embassy will tour the United Kingdom. From Brighton to Edinburgh, we will travel through England, Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotland to meet people, businesses and institutions who together make up the strong relationship between our two countries.
Sweden comes to Belfast on the 6th June - which is our National Day.
You can meet us at the Pop-Up Embassy outside Belfast City Hall between 12 - 5pm, where Ambassador Torbjörn Sohlström and Embassy staff will be present.
The Ambassador will also host a National Day Reception at Belfast City Hall for civic and business representatives and the Swedish community. If you want an invitation to the reception please send an e-mail to Johan Berglund.
In addition, the Embassy will pay a visit to the Titanic Belfast Museum and Queen’s University Belfast. The visit aims to strengthen Sweden’s relations with Northern Ireland.

You will get the chance to meet the Ambassador of Sweden to the UK, Torbjörn Sohlström, and his colleagues from the Embassy.
We hope to connect with some of the 100,000 Swedes and 1,000 Swedish companies who live and operate in the UK. And of course, we aim to meet as many Britons as possible who are interested in learning more about Sweden.
