Car Rental at 'Stockholm - Sheraton'

February is the month of design and beauty in Stockholm. Of course, long walks on the street in February are not possible, due to the short light day and severe windy weather. The best choice is to attend two major events in the world of Scandinavian design. The first event is the Stockholm Furniture Fair, which is the largest and most famous Scandinavian interior exhibition-fair. Here are exhibited the furniture, lighting, textiles and interior items for residential and public spaces. The Stockholm International Antiques Fair is an annual event here, founded in 1978. The fair features paintings, collectibles and antiques and even contemporary design works. All of them are put up for sale. So if you are looking for some new item for your interior - the Stockholm International Antique Fair is the best place for it. The tastiest event is held on March 25, when Swedes celebrate the International Waffle Day. Local people dust the old grandfather's cast-iron wafers and cook the dough for wafers according to a special recipe. The waffles are complemented with the traditional cloudberry and blueberry jam.

During late April, two traditional holidays smoothly follow one another. On April 30, the Stockholm residents celebrate the birthday of the King of Sweden. While in the evening of the same day, the Swedes celebrate the Walpurgis Night - the official occasion to jump over the fire, and then break away at the bar. In May, the so-called street tourism is awakening here. If you are lucky enough to get to Stockholm at the moment when the Japanese cherry trees start to blossom in the center of the city. In August, Stockholm hosts a major event: the Stockholm Culture Festival, which includes many events at various venues of the city. Virtually all the exhibitions and performances, within the framework of the festival, are free. Fans of mass sports events can participate in the night race in Stockholm, ending with music and dancing. In even-numbered years, the Biennale of gospel choirs is also held in Stockholm. In November, Stockholm hosts an International Film Festival - a significant event for the Scandinavian film industry, where the representatives of European cinematography also come. At the end of November, in the Gamla stan starts a magnificent Christmas Fair, which creates a festive mood among tourists and residents of Stockholm.
