Welcome to Norrviken Gardens
Norrviken Gardens offers both the grand and the quiet – from formal gardens and garden rooms to more hidden places within the greenery. Here, nature’s wilder expression meets experiences, exhibitions and events that evolve throughout the season.

The Aurora den 26-28 juni
The countdown to The Aurora has begun. From 26–28 June, Norrviken Gardens will be transformed into a gathering place for some of the world's most spectacular classic cars, sports cars and hypercars. The Aurora is an international lifestyle event where automotive culture, design, innovation and unique experiences come together in a truly exceptional setting.
Preparations are already underway throughout the gardens, with exhibition areas, installations and event structures taking shape ahead of this year's event. As a visitor, you may therefore encounter temporary installations and event build-up activities in parts of the gardens, which may affect the experience in certain areas over the coming days.
The Aurora is an independently organised event and requires a separate admission ticket. Read more and purchase tickets on The Aurora website.
Henrik Wahlström at Norrviken
Henrik Wahlström’s exhibition at Villa Abelin explores the contrasts of life – light and darkness, anxiety and recovery. An experience that invites reflection, contemplation and hope.
Moss People – A New Story in the Forest
Along Rudolf Abelin’s woodland path, two new characters have found their home. The monumental sculptures Nest and Thinker by Finnish artist Kim Simonsson appear to have emerged from the moss itself, becoming a natural part of the landscape. Here, art, nature and imagination meet in a fairytale-like universe where the line between reality and storytelling begins to blur. Discover a permanent installation that will live and evolve alongside the forest – becoming part of Norrviken’s continuing story.
Weddings All Year Round
Norrviken Gardens is a place where love and nature come together in a fairytale setting. Here, among lush garden rooms and blooming pathways, weddings filled with magic and timeless beauty are created. With the sea on the horizon and the greenery of the period gardens as a backdrop, you can celebrate your entire special day in one place – from the ceremony and wedding reception to the party that lasts long into the night.
It’s no coincidence that Norrviken is one of Sweden’s most sought-after wedding venues. Here, nature becomes part of the celebration, the changing seasons give each day its unique touch, and every wedding becomes a story in itself – a story that begins here, but lives on forever.

We are proud and honoured to have been named Experience of the Year by Hylla Skåne – Visit Skåne’s annual celebration of the region’s tourism and events industry.

The award Experience of the Year recognises organisations that develop visitor experiences in innovative and sustainable ways while strengthening the attractiveness of their destination. Receiving this award is a meaningful acknowledgment of our long-term work and our commitment to creating memorable experiences for our guests.
