The Göteborg Film Festival starts with its annual conference on Swedish film policy. By invitation only.

A wildly entertaining portrait of the iconic American indie band Pavement—a brilliant fusion of mockumentary, Broadway musical, and rock biography. Alex Ross Perry delivers a meta-masterpiece brimming with affection and reverence for the band's legendary place in music history. The conversation follows the screening with Kristoffer Åström about Pavement. Book a ticket for the films and talk. The talk is in Swedish. Followed by an afterparty from 22:00–01:00. Afterparty entrance free.

Welcome to a night of celebration at the Grand Opening of the Göteborg Film Festival 2025! This year's event offers a thrilling smörgåsbord of performances. Dive into an eclectic mix of genres, from the vibrant hyperpop beats of locals Zorse and Tigons to the smooth live jazz of the Valter Saarva Trio, and the creative twists of distorted trombone pop by Göteborg’s underground sensation, MAG. For the artisans, Perverskroki presents Crime and Punishment, a performance inviting reflection and confession. Join us for energetic jungle rhythms and nostalgic classical hits from DJs Gustav Ejstes and Vera 4 Ever. Free entrance with accreditation.
