About Live at Heart

... A SHOWCASE FESTIVAL, A MUSIC INDUSTRY CONFERENCE, A CREATIVE STARTUP CONFERENCE AND A BELOVED CITY FEST, ALL IN ONE.

THE BASICS

The festival is located in Örebro - in the heart of Sweden - with fast & simple traveling connections to both Gothenburg and Stockholm as well as Oslo (Norway). Hundreds of artists, industry delegates, students and entrepreneurs get together with thousands of Live at Heart fans in September, each year.

DATES

The 2024 edition will be the 15th annual festival - Let's celebrate! It is being held between 11 - 14 of September.

FESTIVAL

We showcase around 100 signed and unsigned artists in a vast variety of genres on +10 different stages, all in the center of the city.

CREATIVE

Get to know new invaluable connections and start new collaborations during a 2-day event, with Wednesday dedicated to the music business and Thursday towards Startups & Investors.

DAYPARTY

‘Dayparty’ is our festival extension pack. A free-for-all city party with music everywhere - on outside stages, in courtyards, on outer town stages or parking lots. It is intimate, unique and pretty damn cool.

``WE ARE PART OF: INES``
