First held in 2007 as a single-day music festival, Way Out West expanded to a three-day event in 2012. The festival features five stages spread throughout Slottsskogen, a huge parkland area in the town of Gothenburg.

Not only does the festival deliver a jam-packed lineup of awesome artists, but once each night finishes, the clubs and bars around the city put on gigs with international artists and throw massive parties for festival attendees to kick on well into the early morning.

The 2024 festival was a monster success with a bill headlined by the likes of The National, PJ Harvey, Fever Ray, Jack White, Fred Again.. and many more.
