Stockholm, Opening Reception and Dinner events

Stockholm - the Royal capital of Sweden - is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. It is built on fourteen islands and surrounded by waters so clean that you can fish and swim in the middle of the city.

The reception is generously hosted by Stockholm City, and includes a sightseeing cruise on the water ways of Stockholm, through the Old Town to the City Hall, famous for the Nobel Prize festivities. The banquet dinner is hosted at the Vasa Museum, site of the Sweden's largest and most prestigious warship.
