The sun was shining as it usually does on summer Tuesdays, when it was time for another fine sing-along evening at Skansen in Stockholm. The lineup of the week included Ellen Krauss, Liamoo, Newkid, Uno Svenningsson and more.
As you should know, Allsång på Skansen is a cherished institution of Stockholm summer, that brings out the best in the local people (as well as visitors) joining in on singing everybody’s favorite songs and watching the artists perform their new hit songs. In case you have missed our previous Allsång på Skansen reports of the season, read more here and here.
Being Pride week, this edition of Allsång also had its fair share of rainbow-themed content, glitter and glow beside the usual abundance of love and good vibes.
Here are our favorite photos of the Allsång evening by photographer Jytte Lindberg.
The First Lady of Lidingö, Pernilla Wahlgren, hosted the programme in her usual professional manner.
Newkid kicked off the proceedings by singing the Gyllene Tider summer classic Sommartider together with the audience. The story of the band is currently playing at cinemas around Sweden, so make sure you go and watch it.
He then went on to perform his new tune Underbart to the cheers of the audience.
Schlager legends Bettan & Lotta AKA Elisabeth Andreassen and Lotta Engberg led the audience to another sing-along classic, Sån’t är livet.
Ellen Krauss has a place in the hearts of the Swedish people since her big breakthrough in Så Mycket Bättre. She performed her song Cherry on Top.
Check out our pictures of her Gröna Lund show here.
Pernilla had heard Ellen is a romantic, so she got a surprise dinner, including cake with a cherry on top.
Liamoo led the audience in singing another huge summer classic, Sol, vind och vatten by Ted Gärdestad.
The audience then helped Uno Svenningsson sing his biggest hit Vågorna.
Popular drag queen Elecktra came to Pernilla’s aid when she needed some help with her styling.
Liamoo sang his new song Hjärtan, which just happens to be the official song of Team Sweden for the Paris Olympics.
Further on the Olympic theme, the young judoka Tara Babulfath celebrated her bronze medal with the Allsången audience.
