ABOUT

The NORDIC STREET program is created by PASSAGE Festival as a part of the H22 City Expo with the support from Perform Europe.

PASSAGE Festival is presented annually in a unique collaboration between two cities, two countries and two organisations: PASSAGE Festival takes place in both Helsinborg, Sweden and Helsingør, Denmark, and is organised by the Swedish cultural institution Dunkers kulturhus and the Danish local theatre association Helsingør Teater. Despite different prerequisites and endless amounts of red tapes, the two organisations have succeeded in developing one of the largest and most attractive festivals for performing arts in public spaces in Northern Europe for more than 15 years.

H22 is a major initiative by Helsingborg city to develop future welfare solutions aimed at improving quality of life in a smarter, more sustainable city.

H22 City Expo 30 May – 3 July 2022: For 35 days, Helsingborg invites the world to explore new twists on a sustainable city that celebrates all life. Through cultural events, conferences, innovative installations and more, the H22 Expo explores how innovation and collaboration can inspire everyday solutions to the world’s biggest challenges.
