Nestled between Frihamnen’s docks, surrounded by Stockholm’s distinctive water views, is B-K. B-K is an old soul who is now being born again, set to become one of Stockholm’s largest cultural and evens spaces with room for up to 3750 guests. B-K will host two indoor stages, four bars, dreamy production solutions and a large outdoor area.
The building was established in 1927 for Banan-kompaniet, a banana importation and handling business. The premises gave the banana bizz access to their own quay and a warehouse big enough to fit 20 000 banana logs. The property was set with architectural beauty and would become known as The Banana Palace due to its castle-ike design. Still today, the premises welcomes you through its majestical foyer flooded with natural light, into its grand main roomThe main room is a 1000 sqm warehouse-style space with an authentic industrial profile and original details such as textured brick walls and concrete floors.
Fast forward some 95 years - long after the bananas had gone on to other adventures - the building is now a part of the Kulturarenor-family. The same family as sister venues Fållan, Trädgården, Eden and Färgfabriken evenemang. And as if B-K wasn’t enough, she’s just got a brand new baby brother - her own brewery B-K Brewing Co around the corner.
