Good to know

Big stars on the big stage

Stora Scenen has existed in one form or another ever since Liseberg first opened in 1923. It was originally conceived as a stage for Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra and various military orchestras, but these concerts were soon alternated with various circus and acrobatic performances.

The biggest names of our age have appeared here. The fantastic Fattini has swung from a giant lamppost. Roy Fransen has dived in flames into a shallow pool. Charlie Rivel has pouted and played guitar. Olof Palme has given a speech. And hundreds of performers from Sweden and abroad have attracted concert crowds from near and far. The Rolling Stones, ABBA, Evert Taube, Patti Smith, Sammy Davis Jr, Frank Zappa, Birgit Nilsson, Tages, Ted Gärdestad, Zarah Leander, Carola, Deep Purple, Nationalteatern and Snoop Dogg. The list is almost endless. And it gets longer every year!

Are you allowed to bring a bag to the concert area?

You are allowed to bring one small bag to the concert area at Stora Scenen. Please note that the bag must not be larger than 40x40x20 cm. Make sure to measure your bag before you arrive.

What should I as a guest think about?

For the smoothest entry possible, Liseberg primarily recommends that you leave your bag at home. If you wish to bring a small bag (max. 40x40x20 cm), please be careful to measure your bag before you arrive.

Please note that your bag may be searched, so only bring the essentials you need.

Arrive well in advance, preferably an hour before the concert starts.

Does the bag size limit apply to all concerts at Liseberg?

No. The limited dimensions for carry-on bags only apply to those going to concerts at Stora Scenen. Concerts at Lilla Scenen are not subject to any restrictions.  

Are there exceptions for medical reasons?

Exceptions may be made for people who need to bring a bag into the concert area for medical reasons. Exceptions may also be made for people who need walkers or are accompanied by children who need a diaper bag. Bags that are permitted may be checked by authorized personnel before entry.

Is it the same size bag for me who has booked a menu package at Lisebergs Wärdshus or 1923 in connection with a concert?

Yes, the dimensions for permitted bags also apply at the Lisebergs Wärdshus & 1923 restaurant in connection with concerts at Stora Scenen (40x40x20 cm).

Where can I find storage spaces in Lisebergsparken?

There is a limited number of storage spaces in the park and a fee is charged per locker. There is staffed storage at the North Entrance. There are storage boxes at the South Entrance and Kristallsalongen.

Can I bring a stroller to the concert at Stora Scenen?

No, strollers are not allowed inside the concert area. This also applies to Lilla Live on Sundays.

Can I bring a star prize with me into the concert area?

No. A star win is larger than 40x40x20 cm and is therefore not allowed to be brought into Stora Scenen. This also applies to Lilla Live on Sundays.

Can I bring my own water bottle into the concert area?

Bottles made of softer plastic, such as PET or sports bottles, are permitted. Harder bottles made of metal or glass are prohibited inside the area. It is possible to refill you water bottle in the concert area. You can also buy water and other drinks in one of our bars.

Can I bring an umbrella into the concert area?

No, you are not allowed to bring umbrellas, star prizes or other objects that may obscure the view, get in the way of, or harm other concertgoers. This also applies to Lilla Live on Sundays.

Accessibility at Stora Scenen

All concerts at the Main Stage are accessible to wheelchair users..
In front of Stora Scenen, there are two wheelchair ramps. Seating is limited, so please arrive well in advance.
For seated audiences, a number of spaces are reserved for people with assistance dogs at the front of the stage, along the outer edges of the seating area. This is to ensure that the dogs have a small area to stay in, are not crowded, and can easily access water and shade.
For seated audiences, wheelchairs may also be positioned at the ends of each row of seats. Wheelchairs are not permitted in the aisles due to safety and evacuation requirements.
Guests with walkers/rollators may use the regular seating. If the walker/rollator is in the way for safety reasons, Liseberg staff can assist by storing it during the concert.

Dare to Care

- a commitment to mutuality and to combat sexual abuse

In partnership with Svensk Live, the Swedish Association for Sexuality Education and various festivals, organisers and performers, we support everyone’s rights to their own body and their own sexuality.

At festivals, clubs – and everywhere. Dare to Care is primarily about creating a social culture that advocates communication, mutuality and consent in sexual relationships. In practice this involves working to establish norms and values and provide practical safety measures together with organisers, as well as talking to audiences at venues.

Greentopia

– Events as a driving force for climate change

Through the Greentopia initiative, stakeholders in live music, the sports community and Swedish cities have formed an alliance that is committed to reducing the carbon footprint of events.

We have joined this alliance, and together with other members of Greentopia we will actively work to reduce the climate impact of our own events and strive to encourage visitors and other stakeholders to contribute to the goal of making cities climate-neutral by 2030. Our focus is on food and drink, transport and textiles.
