Come to Malmö 2008

Over 100 million people in Europe can reach Malmö by air in under two hours. Choose to land at Malmö Airport, and take the Flygbussarna to the centre of Malmö, or land in neighbouring Denmark at Kastrup/ Copenhagen Airport. The Öresund train from Copenhagen and Copenhagen Airport to Malmö takes 35 minutes across the magnificent Öresund Bridge. Coming from Stockholm the traintrip is only four and a half hours to Malmö, and two and a half from Gothenburg. Travelling by train is an easy alternative because you reach the centre of Malmö without the need of any connecting transport.

With a population of nearly 300.000 Malmö is an intimate city with a big-city feel, offering a wide range of high class cultural entertainment and sporting events. Thanks to its seaside location Malmö has unique qualities as a beautiful coastal city. The Ribersborg area has a 3 km bathing beach, and right next to it is Västra Hamnen with its pubs, cafés, boating and bathing from wharfs and promenades. Distances are short and its position in the middle of the Öresund region means it is close to the metropolis of Copenhagen and the charming countryside of Skåne.
