Viva Sounds celebrates five years with initial line-up

Dubbed as Gothenburg’s very own (and only) club festival, Viva Sounds will celebrate its fifth year in December, and have now unveiled the initial line-up for their next event.

Viva Sounds will welcome performances from the likes of Hot Breath, Boy With Apple, 7ebra, and Cloudsurfers, with more than thirty more names set to be announced over the coming months. It will take place at numerous venues throughout the city centre from the 2-3 December, with tickets available to buy now here.

Speaking about the next event, Gustav Påhlsson from Viva Sounds and Westside Music says, "2021 was our best edition so far and 2022 will be even better. We use a couple of new venues, which we’re very happy about, and we’ll be even more centered around Andra Långgatan and Stigbergstorget. The venues are basically each others neighbours, which is a very good thing when you want people to discover lots of new music. The summer is pretty short in Gothenburg, which means December isn’t that far off, and with it Viva Sounds".
