Article about the summer at Solliden at Ölandsmagazinet's summer issue.

At the article it is told that during the winter, the entrance building has been rebuilt. It has become more spacious and the palace's shop has been given more space. The stage adjacent to the entrance has also been modernized, there are thirteen concerts this summer.
Pernilla Klintbert, marketing director at Solliden, tells that they want to surprise visitors and bring novelties every season. Queen Victoria who had Solliden built in the early 20th century was a modern queen. They continue in her spirit and believe that she would have liked the modernization that Solliden is undergoing now.

The King inaugurates tomorrow The Themed Gardens Exhibition - 'Glazed 2.0' (Inglasat 2.0). Four profiles (Ernst Kirchsteiger, Malin Björkholm, Paul Svensson and Kajsa Vildängen) inspire visitors by decorating greenhouses in their very own unique way.
Solliden Palace published at its Facebook photos of the participants decorating their greenhouses yesterday.

A nice blog post about a visit to Solliden recently at a food blogger's blog. She visited Solliden with her family and tells that she visits Solliden almost every summer. She tells at her blog that they saw the royal family, they drove past in a car and waved to the children.

A couple of photos taken recently of Kavaljershuset, the house where Carl Philip and Madeleine are staying with their families when they are at Solliden. The house was built in 1902 and has over 500 square meters and two kitchens.

Solliden Sessions concerts at Solliden also in the summer 2023.

The hit concept Solliden Sessions returns in 2023 to our small stage right next to Kaffetorpet. Here we offer songs, jazz, pop and hits with some of Sweden's top artists. The concerts will be smaller and more intimate.
The first artists are now released. We will continuously update the list as soon as the artist and date are ready!

I love the idea of turning a dead tree into a garden sculpture.

More concerts at Solliden Sessions in summer 2023
Boka biljetter till Solliden Sessions 2023

For the third year, "Solliden sessions" are organized at Solliden.
So far, 15 artists have been booked and a few more may be added.
- The royal family is very satisfied, both with the concerts and the reception. The family has visited several of the concerts and met the artists, says Solliden Palace's project manager Pernilla Klintberg in a press release.
- We would like to book some unique gems for the audience at Solliden's concerts. Gilbert O'Sullivan and King Carl XVI Gustaf are incidentally of the same golden year. I expect it to be a nice nostalgia concert that will make a memorable impression, says concert producer Patrik Krall.
According to Patrik Krall, the royal family has from the beginning been strongly involved in the musical performances at Solliden.
- If I were to come up with an artist that I know they have asked for, it is Niklas Strömstedt, reveals Patrik Krall.
