157,000 people saw Per live in Sweden


STOCKHOLM - Per's Swedish tour this summer was a huge success, as we all know. Expressen has some statistics to back this up. A total of 157,000 people saw Per live in concert during his Sommar-Mazarin tour. Here is a list of the concerts and their number of attendance:

  • Halmstad, Jul 7: 13,000
  • Helsingborg, Jul 30: 12,000
  • Skövde, Aug 1: 8,000
  • Finspång, Aug 2: 8,000
  • Varberg, Aug 3: 12,000
  • Malmö, Aug 5: 10,000
  • Göteborg, Aug 6: 22,000
  • Kalmar, Aug 8: 9,000
  • Jönköping, Aug 9: 7,000
  • Karlskrona, Aug 10: 7,000
  • Stockholm, Aug 12: 17,000
  • Sundsvall, Aug 14: 6,000
  • Leksand, Aug 15: 9,000
  • Karlstad, Aug 16: 7,000
  • Eskilstuna, Aug 17: 10,000

Per thinks one of the highlights was the mid-August concert in Stockholm. "Over 17,000 wonderful people showed up. Playing in Stockholm has always been tough for a country boy like me, but eventually it was an excellent concert," says Per.

  "The tour was fantastic, but all too short," Per said to Expressen. "I hope there will be a follow-up."
