Götheborg of Sweden is the world's largest ocean-going wooden sailing ship, and will create great attention wherever she goes. We are now heading out again! Together with a selected number of partner companies, and focus on business and sustainability, we will sail to Asia in 2022 and 2023. The trip to Stockholm in August 2021 was the first stop on that adventure!
We are now back in Gothenburg until May 2022.
The planned expedition to Asia is extended with a year, in response to the great interest in the expedition start-up in 2021. Arrival at the end destination in Asia, Shanghai, will be in September 2023. The route is expanded primarily in Europe, with focus on Northern Europe.
Come for a guided tour on board Götheborg! Starting Saturday October 2nd, we are open to visitors on weekends, Saturdays and Sundays 12:00 – 15:00. You can buy your tickets online or on-site, in our shop. Please note that the ship can only be visited in the company of a guide.
Now back in Gothenburg, we want to direct a big thank you to Stockholm – the city, our partners and guests, and everyone who came to visit us on board or from the quay. It was a week with fantastic events and great meetings, and we were overwhelmed by the warm and enthusiastic welcome from all our guests and the citizens of Stockholm.
It's been more than fifteen years since Götheborg of Sweden sailed to Asia. In May 2022, we are heading out again! In the same vein as in our history, the mission is to promote Swedish-Asian trade and create new business opportunities.
For our next expedition, we are also putting innovations for a better world on display. We will create a commitment to the greatest challenge of our times – the adaptation to a sustainable future.
Partnering with us means you will be associated with the spectacular ship, trade for sustainability, and our common mission to promote Swedish-Asian trade.
International trade can have positive effects on all three dimensions of sustainability; economic, social, and environmental. With our 2022/2023 expedition, we are putting innovations for a better world on display. We will help spread commitment to the greatest challenge of our times – the adaptation to a sustainable future.
The quay quickly transforms into a bustling location with 10,000 people circulating through the area. On board Götheborg, there will be mingles, dinners, family days, press events and much more.
