International meeting place for the development of contemporary music
The Kalv festival is a yearly contemporary music festival that since its inception in 2004 has explored the world of experimental new music in the beautiful countryside south-east of Gothenburg, through show-casing interdisciplinary and pedagogical projects, work-shops as well as commissioning and staging some of the most important musical works of the last century. A feature which has placed the festival as one of the key contemporary music festivals of Sweden and integrated it socially and culturally in the local regional life.
This year’s Kalv festival begins with three days of three house concerts, a vesper and a vernissage.
The festival in 2023 will be (almost) a week long filled with parallel and interwoven tracks where the playful and exploratory take center stage.

Although snow once again is approaching the Swedish latitudes, spring is still approaching – and not least, summer! And with it the Kalv festival returns as usual!
