Anniversary project
The City of Gothenburg's anniversary projects are sprung from ideas from the residents of Gothenburg's ideas. The projects help to fulfill the 400-years anniversary's goals and vision. They also add value to the city through unique solutions and events that are sustainable in the long term. They are of a different nature and represent a diversity and breadth. The projects are considered to have the potential to make a lasting impression for the future.
