Gallery Get-Together

A festive weekend for art enthusiasts!

On the weekend of September 6–7, 2025, museums and galleries in Borås are hosting a gallery get-together. Nine different museums and galleries will be open on both days, aiming to provide you with a truly festive visit. There will be everything from special exhibitions and musical entertainment to exciting offers and refreshments.

Shuttle Bus

To make it easy to navigate between the different venues, we have arranged free shuttle buses for your convenience. There's plenty of space for those short on time, having trouble finding their way, or facing mobility challenges. All to ensure you can maximise and enjoy your art experiences in the best possible way.

Trivia Walk

There will be a trivia walk with a question at each Gallery Gala venue, offering great prizes. The trivia walk consists of ten questions, and you can start and finish wherever you like. Don't miss the tiebreaker question located at the front desk in the entrance of the Textile Museum. Submit your answer sheet at any participating venue. Only available in Swedish.
