The 2nd and the 3rd of May 2026

 

Sweden’s first and only
Sake Festival

On May 2nd and 3rd, 2026, we are proud to host the second edition of the Stockholm Sake Festival. As the first and only festival in Sweden entirely dedicated to Japanese beverage culture, we are leveling up this year and transforming TAK into a vibrant Neo Tokyo.

The festival is hosted by TAK in collaboration with Sweden’s leading experts in Japanese gastronomy. This year, we are taking over both floors 13 and 14 to create an even larger and more ambitious experience for curious beginners and dedicated sake enthusiasts alike.

A tribute to Sake and Japanese drinking culture

The purpose of the festival is to celebrate, introduce, and deepen the knowledge of sake in Sweden through personal encounters, tastings, lectures, and gastronomic experiences.

For this year's festival, we are doubling the number of suppliers and welcoming over 15 breweries directly from Japan. This offers a unique opportunity to meet producers, sake sommeliers, and experts who are eager to share their passion and knowledge of this multifaceted beverage.
