Welcome to a day about development!
Visitors see no borders. How can we ourselves think without boundaries and allow the attractiveness of places to be connected in an organic way?
On 18 March, we - the tourism industry and the public sector - come together for the first time for Fjärdhundraland Day, on how to build destinations in harmony with the local community.
Fjärdhundraland invites you who work with development issues, rural areas or tourism - regions, county councils, municipalities and organizations, together with companies and organizations in the tourism industry. The aim is to create contacts and ideas, across borders.
We want to make a day that provides inspiration, knowledge and new contacts. Please recommend a colleague!
Time: 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Tuesday, March 18, 2025.
Place: Ekolsund Castle, Enköping.
