Dance nights and parties

Thursday, Friday and evenings at Tvetagården

Sunday evening afterparty in the city (Odengatan 89)

Single night tickets are available at the door for all nights.

Workshops and skillshare

Workshops & Skillshare

There will be a variety of optional workshops and skillshares. Are you interested in holding your own skills-share or workshop? We can give you the time and space to do so. Don’t have to make your mind up now, just let us know when you arrive.

Venue

Accomodation

The hostel rooms have between 3 and 6 beds.

There will be an online spreadsheet for camp participants to organize room sharing.

We highly recommend that you bring your own bed sheets, but if you want to hire bed linen at an extra cost, we will provide details about how to pay for this option closer to the event, as it is arranged directly with the hostel.

Are you travelling from far away and want to save some space in your bag and some money? Ask our friendly locals (via the facebook event) if they can lend you a bedsheet or two.

Campers have a separate shower/toilet facility accessible all night.

Schedule

This is a preliminary schedule meant to help you plan your planning and get an idea of what’s going on. Once we are at the camp, there will be only one official schedule, which you will find on physically on a very nice bit of wall.

Volunteers

While we expect everybody to help during the camp, a few tasks need extra attention. We are seeking volunteers in exchange for meals and access to the parties, skillshare activities and at least 50% of the classes. There will always be a responsible organiser to help out with things you don’t know, so no worries about not knowing what to do! 

ACCOMMODATION

The hostel beds are our biggest limiting factor; we are mainly searching for volunteers willing to camp. There will be some indoor mattresses, but volunteers with tents will be prioritised. For those of you travelling from far, we will try to get tents to borrow.  

WORKLOAD

During the camp, you should expect  to work up to 8 hours per day. We will ensure that you can attend 50% of the classes undisturbed, but we cannot guarantee that you will be able to choose which classes you will go to. 

Even if every one of you will be assigned a specific area of responsibility, we hope you are flexible and can jump in other areas if needed. It is also important that you are available during the whole camp (Thursday morning to Sunday evening). We are really sorry but we can’t have volunteers arriving late or leaving early, this would mean an unfair workload for everyone else. 

TYPES OF WORK

Builder Hulk means starting early on Thursday and finishing Sunday evening is a must. You help with the setup and tear down of the camp. This means moving tables and chairs rearranging beds and mattrasses in the hostel, and putting up and taking down the decorations.  Builders are first to come on Thursday and last to leave on Sunday but have a little more free time during the camp but ocassionally we will need your help with further changes. For example, you might also help to prepare lighter snacks between classes one of the days and will make sure rooms are ready for classes and evening parties. During the camp it is your responsibility to make sure that the toilets and other camp areas are clean. 

If you are resourceful, practical,not afraid of carrying things, and moving around quite a bit, this is a great role for you!

As a Breakfast elf you need to wake up early and ensure the breakfast is prepared, served and cleaned away every day. Between classes, you will help with preparing snacks and after dinner, you participate in the set up of the evening café. YIf you don’t mind getting up early, this is the role for you!

The Café troll takes care of the café. In the evenings, you will make sure the café is properly filled, that there is coffee and so on. You get assigned one evening and are in the café the whole evening. This means you will miss one live night, but you can take all the classes!  If you like responsibility, can read labels, and care about food allergies, this it the spot for you!

The kitchen hero assists the chef with the meals. You should be comfortable working in a group. You will cut, stir, carry and serve. If you know how to show up on time and are good at executing instructions quickly, this is the spot for you!

Code of Conduct

Stockholm Blues retreat is a special event as we all eat, sleep, socialize and dance in the same space.

The community is a very important part of this event and we all help each other make this event enjoyable and safe for everyone. I agree to help out with the duties I sign up for.

As we all eat together I am aware that there are people with allergies and I will do my best to avoid crosscontamination of food and will follow instructions of the organizers and volunteers.

I understand that people have different needs and that anyone can need time alone. I am free to seek alone time as well.
