Where does it start and finish?
The 'Midnight Race' starts in the evening on Södermalm, looping the island's hilly streets in a carnival atmosphere with live bands on course.
Where should I stay?
Södermalm itself for the start-line buzz and best bars; Gamla Stan (old town) is a short walk north for sightseeing.
How do I get from the airport to the start?
ARN airport is ~20 min on the Arlanda Express to Central, then a short Metro ride to Södermalm.
What else is on that weekend?
Evening start leaves the day free — Vasa Museum, an archipelago boat trip, or fika in SoFo. Note Stockholm is the priciest of the five for food and hotels.
