Book conferences and meetings

Stockholm University offers conference and meeting venues in Aula Magna at Campus Frescati and Campus Albano. You can book rooms for everything from small meetings to large conferences and, if needed, add services such as technical support, logistics and participant management.

Aula Magna is the University’s largest conference facility, with space for up to 1,200 people. Since its inauguration in 1997, it has been a key venue for scientific meetings, academic ceremonies and public events such as the Nobel Lectures.

The film about Aula Magna conveys the architecture, materials and atmosphere of the building, designed by architect Ralph Erskine. The film is subtitled in English.
