The potato festival in Alingsås
The potato festival in Alingsås June 12-13, 2026
In June, Alingsås is transformed into a vibrant meeting place when the popular Potato Festival takes place. The festival has its roots in the town’s history as a potato town and today offers a wonderful mix of market, local delicacies, music and activities for both young and old. Here you can stroll between stalls, discover local flavors and enjoy a summery festival atmosphere in a charming urban environment.
For those who want to experience the festival but at the same time have the opportunity to retreat to the tranquility, Stora Djupsås is a perfect choice. Here you live close to nature and peaceful, with forest and open landscapes around, while you only have about 30 minutes by car to central Alingsås.
With us, you can choose from several different types of accommodation, ranging from luxurious rooms at our Bed and Breakfast, simple pitches and tent sites to more experiential options such as glamping and tree tents. No matter how you want to stay, you’ll have a relaxing base to land in after a day filled with impressions.
This makes it easy to combine the hustle and bustle of the festival with the tranquillity of the countryside, a holistic experience that offers the best of both worlds.
