On June 25th, a completely unique popup exhibition will open at Klammerdammsgatan 4 in Halmstad city. The Gyllene Tider Experience is more than an exhibition. It is an experience that evokes emotions. It is retro and it is also contemporary.
This exhibition has truly engaged the band’s members. All five have opened their hearts and searched through their stashes for memories and items that create a picture of Gyllene Tider’s dreams when they started their career. In one corner, you will find the rehearsal room set up as it once looked, interpreted from the film Sommartider. In another part, you can sing along to one of Gyllene Tider’s songs. Maybe you also want to share your dreams. You can do that here.
The popup exhibition is about Gyllene Tider’s early years, with a connection to the upcoming film Sommartider, which will be released in Swedish cinemas on July 17th. As Micke Syd often says, “we are merchants of joy.” And that is exactly how it is. Many visitors will likely feel Per Gessle’s song “Här kommer alla känslorna på en och samma gång” (Here come all the feelings at once). Because music is life, at all stages. And Gyllene Tider has been with us all the way – for a long, long time.
Gyllene Tider brings happiness and pride
-Halmstad is and has always been the place in our hearts. When I was contacted about a popup exhibition related to the upcoming “Sommartider” film and the fantastic audio guides recently launched, it felt natural to open the archives and treasure chests. We in the band, along with those working on the exhibition, have had many memories revived, which feels incredibly fun. I believe many visitors will be happy with this exhibition, says Per Gessle.
-Since the band’s start, Gyllene Tider has meant a great deal to Halmstad. In their wake, with all the songs that depict the city, history has been written, creating immense pride in all of us who live here. Their music has always attracted visitors to our beautiful city, and with the exhibition, we look forward to even more tourists and for Halmstad residents to visit Klammerdammsgatan 4 to walk along Gyllene Tider’s memory lane, says Stefan Pålsson (S), chairman of the municipal executive board in Halmstad.
The Gyllene Tider Experience opens on June 25th and runs until August 31st. Halmstad Tourist Center is in the same location, where you can buy tickets for the exhibition. Tickets are also available on ticketmaster.se.
