Östgöta:

Silent disco: Imagine a club where you can change the music if you do not like the song, a club where you can talk normally but still dance like a maniac on the dancefloor. Impossible you say? Oh no! Use your imagination, we have done that and made it so that every guest can borrow a pair of headphones in order to feel how fantastic and magical a silent disco is!

Pub: Imagine a sunny afternoon on the backyard with your whole group of friends. Charge up with good food and nice company in our bars.
