The Vasa Museum in Stockholm hosts the jazz concert Patrik Boman Seven Piece Machine on 14 October 2026. The programme places live music alongside the preserved warship Vasa, the museum's central object and a surviving vessel from 1628.
The event gives the Stockholm museum a current cultural programme beyond its permanent displays. It is scheduled during Stockholm Jazz Festival and offers travellers a specific evening visit to one of Sweden's major maritime museums.
Vasa Museum adds a Stockholm Jazz Festival concert
Patrik Boman Seven Piece Machine is listed for 14 October 2026 in the museum's autumn programme. The official event page names the venue as Gradängerna and gives a scheduled period from 5.30pm to 7.45pm. It says the concert begins at 6pm according to the organiser.
The band is presented as a seven-piece ensemble led by bassist Patrik Boman. The listed musicians include Fredrik Lindborg on clarinet and saxophones, Anders Ekholm on saxophones, Hampus Adami on trombone and valve trombone, Erik Tengholm on trumpet and flugelhorn, Carl Orrje on piano and Harry Wallin on drums. The official event programme says the concert is part of Stockholm Jazz Festival.
Music takes place beside the preserved Vasa
The museum describes the event as an evening combining a bar, social gathering and music in its museum setting. The ship remains the central historical context: the Vasa Museum preserves the warship Vasa, built in 1628 and decorated with hundreds of wooden sculptures. That link between a seventeenth-century ship and a contemporary jazz programme is specific to this venue.
The official museum description identifies Vasa as a well-preserved warship from 1628. The ship's presence means the concert is not an isolated city gig but a programme placed within a museum whose subject is the vessel and the period in which it was built. Further event information is also carried by a Stockholm cultural listing.
