In and around the venue

Dieselverkstan, our venue, includes a pub, a café, a climbing center, a public library, and a cinema. There's a small park with a playground just outside, and it's a short walk to plenty of other amenities.

 

Sickla is a lively neighborhood, not far from Stockholm's City Center, with plenty of shops, busses, and trams.

There's a substantial shopping mall, the Sickla Köpkvarter, just a few minutes away from Dieselverkstan, and even more restaurants, bars, cafés, as well as several grocery stores, on the roads and paths surrounding it. 

Sickla Wood City

Sickla Wood City is a major project, building the world's largest urban construction project out of wood. If you are able to explore the neighborhood while you are in Sickla for SMOFcon 42, you'll be able to see the first of the Wood City buildings, which are due to be completed by the end of 2025!
