About Society Expo 2026
Expo 2026 showcases Skellefteå and explores sustainable solutions
Here in Skellefteå, we are undergoing a unique societal transformation. We've experienced rapid growth, and we’re committed to a sustainable development. We take pride in our shared journey and our development and want to share it with the world. In 2026, we’ll host the Society Expo - a global event highlighting Skellefteå and exploring sustainable solutions to the challenges we face. The aim is to discover knowledge and tools that make a real impact -both locally and globally.
Skellefteå has expanded significantly in a short time, and we want sustainable social development. It's the foundation of our development strategy, Skellefteå 2030. It is about education, jobs, health and social care, leisure opportunities, openness, and so much more. With sustainability, we mean climate, economic and social sustainability. The development strategy is the starting point for Society Expo 2026.

Now we are in the middle of the transition and we need to take big steps. With SE26, we want to create new collaborations, where different actors can test and develop ideas, solutions, and tools that make an impression. It's also about showcasing our journey. Both for us as decision-makers, researchers, and other stakeholders.
Social sustainability is perhaps the biggest challenge of them all. It is also a topic that we especially want to highlight during our Expo. It's partly about showing successful projects that others can learn from. But also about examining the challenges that we face, where the Society Expo 2026 can drive development to find the solutions of the future.
And most importantly, we do it together. Everyone is involved in Skellefteå's development. And everyone is welcome to contribute. Together, we discover how we can carry out a fast and sustainable urban transformation.
We warmly welcome you in 2026!
