"I thought you were pretend, but now I know you exist for real." – a visiting child to Madicken in Astrid Lindgren's World

In Astrid Lindgren's World, visitors step right into the world of fairy tales and become a part of it. Here, children and their families can meet, talk, and play with characters from Astrid Lindgren's books. During the high season, our visitors can see stories from the well-known books performed in over 30 different shows every day. Each year, the park welcomes half a million visitors, making us Sweden's largest outdoor theater and a fairy tale world that creates memories for life. Our goal is to bring Astrid Lindgren's authorship to life and to work in her spirit based on the fundamental value that all people have the same worth and are equally important. With us, everyone plays a significant role in creating an authentic and genuine experience of Astrid Lindgren's World.

Do you want to be part of our work?

As a sound technician in Astrid Lindgren's World, you will work with the sound for all performances in the park. We have eight different stages where shows are performed throughout the day. You will manage the sound according to the sound script and work together with stage technicians in preparing before and after the performances. You will be part of the stage and sound department team.

We welcome everyone regardless of ethnicity, gender identity, and cultural background. If you meet the formal requirements, you are welcome to apply!
