Whether you’ve got concert tickets or not, Stockholm is turning into one giant Bad Bunny celebration. The Puerto Rican superstar brings his hugely anticipated Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour to Strawberry Arena on July 10 & 11, marking his biggest Swedish shows to date. As the first Latin American artist to headline stadiums on this scale across Europe, expect massive production, an unforgettable setlist, and thousands of fans travelling to Stockholm for the weekend.
But the fun starts long before the concerts.
Throughout July 9–11, La Plaza in Kungsträdgården becomes a free Bad Bunny fan zone with live DJs, games, food trucks, drinks and a lively atmosphere where fans can gather before heading to the arena.
Around Strawberry Arena, Arenastaden Goes Live transforms the entire district into a festival. Expect live music, DJ sets, performances, food from more than 60 restaurants, shopping, entertainment and activities spread across Mall of Scandinavia, the surrounding hotels and public spaces.
Looking for somewhere to start your evening? Los Conejos Pre-Party at Bar Americain (Haymarket) serves themed cocktails, food and Bad Bunny hits from the afternoon onwards, while Bad Weekend at Josefinas offers both daytime parties (12:00–17:00) and after-concert celebrations (21:00–03:00), complete with multiple DJs, a live Latin band, waterfront views and plenty of fellow fans.
And when the concert ends, the party continues at STHLM Baile – Bad Bunny Afterparty at Debaser Strand, where reggaeton, Brazilian funk and perreo keep the dancefloor going until 3am.
