Vassen, a new street food area, will open at the end of May, with the opening planned for the last weekend in May, according to multiple reports. The project is located at the old Götaverken shipyard area, opposite Stenpiren, by the riverbank. It will be a 3,000 square meter street food area with bars and shops, offering a range of features and amenities.
Plans include nine food outlets, a large beer hall, a skate ramp, a tattoo studio, shops, and a stage, with entrance being free, as reported by major media. The project is backed by restaurateur Anders Hedin and co-owner Magnus Albrektson, and the inspiration is Reffen in Copenhagen, according to major media. According to Aftonbladet, Magnus Albrektson described it as a living district that is emerging, aiming to be as obvious to visit as Liseberg, the Paddan boats, or Feskekyrka.
It should become as obvious as Liseberg.
The exact opening date in May is not specified, and the specific names or types of the nine food outlets are not provided. Additionally, the operating hours or seasonal availability of Vassen are not mentioned, and the funding or investment details for the project are not disclosed.
We see Vassen as a living district that is emerging. A completely new destination in Gothenburg that should be as obvious to visit as Liseberg, the Paddan boats, or Feskekyrka.
