Do events make a city happier? 😃
We met up with the only Chaired Professor in Wellbeing, Welfare and Happiness in the world, Micael Dahlen, at the Stockholm School of Economics!

📈 Micael used Taylor Swift’s three concerts in Stockholm to study how large events can positively impact a city’s well-being and sense of community.
It turns out, big events like these can really lift a city’s overall happiness!

These are Michael’s 5 happy places in Stockholm:
🏟️ The Avicii Arena and SkyView
🏙️ Liljeholmskajen
🌳 Royal Djurgården
🖼️ Blasieholmen & Skeppsholmen
🪙 The Stockholm School of Economics

The Woodland Cemetery—Skogskyrkogården—has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site for 30 years, since 1994!💚

🌲🏛🌲 Renowned modernist architects Gunnar Asplund and Sigurd Lewerentz designed this site, an exceptional example of how architecture and landscape can harmoniously blend together, making it one of the most beautiful places to visit in Stockholm year-round.

🚇 Located in southern Stockholm, it’s easy to reach by public transport. Just take subway line 18 towards Farsta Strand and get off at Skogskyrkogården station.

Did you know that there is over 100 kilometres of art to explore in Stockholm's subway system? This is the red line station Stadion! ⁣😍

🌌 The station’s artists not only wanted to bring the sky underground, but also remind passengers of the nearby arena Stadion’s significance in sport’s history.

🏟️ The Stockholm Olympic Stadium, also called Stadion, was the venue for the 1912 Olympic Games – and is still one of Stockholm’s great event arenas!⁣

🌈 Many also associate this station with the Stockholm Pride festival, not only for the large, beautiful rainbow, but also because it is the closest station to the festival park site since many years!
