Together with the World Tunnel Congress, ISPO and R\u00f6ntgenveckan, as well as world-leading gaming events such as DreamHack, Stockholmsm\u00e4ssan is consolidating its position as a dynamic hub and meeting place in the Nordic region. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Highlights included the World Tunnel Congress, which brought together over 3,000 experts from more than 80 countries; ISPO, an international congress on prosthetics, orthotics, mobility aids and rehabilitation with over 4,000 participants from more than 100 countries; and R\u00f6ntgenveckan, a national conference for all radiology professionals. In addition, a wide range of public fairs were held, including Br\u00f6llopsfeber, the Sewing &amp; Crafts Festival, Allt f\u00f6r sj\u00f6n, the Antiques Fair and Nordiska Tr\u00e4dg\u00e5rdar. In the spring, the Swedish Championship for Young Enterprise was also organized, an important meeting place between schools, the business community and decision-makers.  <\/p>\n<p>The autumn saw both established and new initiatives, such as Tr\u00e4dg\u00e5rdsm\u00e4ssan H\u00f6st, which was held in parallel with Hem &amp; Villam\u00e4ssan, as well as strong public and industry events such as Formex, Sthlm Food &amp; Wine, Allt f\u00f6r H\u00e4lsan, Sectech, Odontologisk Riksst\u00e4mma and Swedental.<\/p>\n<p>The year ended with two major international public events. DreamHack, the world&#8217;s largest festival for gaming and internet culture, filled the entire facility and set a new attendance record with 60,000 visitors, 8,000 more than last year. Hyrox also took place, a unique fitness race that has grown every year from 900 to over 16 000 athletes.  <\/p>\n<p>In 2025, Stockholmsm\u00e4ssan&#8217;s strategic direction shifted, which means that public fairs will not be organized under its own auspices. In December, Numera M\u00e4ssor was confirmed as the new organizer for the portfolio, which will continue to be organized at Stockholmsm\u00e4ssan. The spring public fairs will be organized by Stockholmsm\u00e4ssan as planned, but will then be transferred to Numera M\u00e4ssor.  <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8211; The focus is on organizing its own fairs and events for selected sectors of the business community and actively cultivating the meetings market to be able to welcome major congresses, fairs and other meetings here. This means that Stockholmsm\u00e4ssan can continue to create value for all of Sweden&#8217;s companies and organizations, as well as Stockholm as a region,&#8221; says Mats Viker, CEO of Stockholmsm\u00e4ssan. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>Strongly equipped for 2026<\/strong><br \/>\nWe are now looking ahead and welcoming six international congresses and lots of other exciting events, conferences, congresses and fairs to Stockholmsm\u00e4ssan. Among other things, we will be hosted by the Swedish Kennel Club in September 2026, when the European Dog Show is organized. This event is expected to attract around 25,000 visitors, 25,000 dogs and judges from 25 different countries over three days.  <\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8211; &#8220;With 78 events already booked for 2026, including six international congresses, we are positive about the future. Stockholmsm\u00e4ssan will continue to be a global meeting place and accelerator for social development, in Stockholm, the Nordic region and the world,&#8221; concludes Anna-Karin Werner, Director of Sales &amp; Event Operations at Stockholmsm\u00e4ssan. <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><em>The 2026 event calendar is packed with popular events, congresses and meetings.<br \/>\n<a title=\"For more information about the events, visit the Stockholmsm\u00e4ssan event calendar.\" href=\"https:\/\/stockholmsmassan.se\/kalender\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">For more information about the events, visit the Stockholmsm\u00e4ssan event calendar.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the past year, Stockholmsm\u00e4ssan has hosted several world-leading congresses, international meetings and trade fairs.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":3427119,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[141],"tags":[290,292,528,151,148,584,535,553,562,249,194,556,557],"class_list":["post-3447951","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-novelty","tag-2025-en","tag-b2c-en","tag-changes","tag-congress","tag-event-en","tag-fairs","tag-hospitality-industry","tag-initiative","tag-public-consumer-fairs","tag-stockholm-en","tag-stockholmsmassan-en","tag-the-business-community","tag-the-meeting-industry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stockholmsmassan.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3447951","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stockholmsmassan.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stockholmsmassan.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stockholmsmassan.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/6"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stockholmsmassan.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3447951"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stockholmsmassan.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3447951\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stockholmsmassan.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3427119"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stockholmsmassan.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3447951"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stockholmsmassan.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3447951"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stockholmsmassan.se\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3447951"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
