The Royal National City Park 30 years
The world's first national city park turns 30
A living room for culture and nature
The National City Park is an oasis in the middle of the capital, where nature and culture exist in harmony. At 27 km², the park encompasses forests, open landscapes, and historic environments. Here, you can hike along shores, visit museums, enjoy cafés and restaurants, or simply take in the tranquility of the lush green surroundings, all year round.
The park was established in 1995 to protect this unique area and its rich biodiversity. Over the years, it has become an important place for both the city's inhabitants and visitors. Now we celebrate 30 years of preservation, care, and showcasing—and you are warmly welcome to join!
Before, during, and after the Open House Stockholm festival weekend, October 3-5, you have the chance to discover the national city park through various events, organized by both Royal Djurgården and Open House Stockholm.

On August 26, 2025, we celebrated the Royal National City Park's 30th anniversary in the best way possible – with a guided bike ride around Brunnsviken. Over 30 brave cyclists braved the initial rain, but the clouds soon parted and we were accompanied by brilliant sunshine.
On Tuesday, June 3rd, 2025, around thirty cyclists gathered at Djurgårdsbron for OH! POPUP's guided tour through the heart of the National City Park.
On June 28, 2023, the public was invited to a guided bicycle tour to see a cross-section of the city's green and cultural hub, Djurgården. From the Blue Gate, the island was circled, proceeding over Blockhusudden to Galärvarvet.
