Viktor Frisk to Speak on Mental Health and Inclusivity at Skellefteå Pride Week

Viktor Frisk, well-known Swedish artist famous for hits like "Bada nakna," "Shuffla," and "Groupie," is set to deliver a lunch lecture on February 11 at Sara Kulturhus during Skellefteå's Pride Week. This event continues a tradition started in 2014 by the Skellefteå municipality in cooperation with RFSL, featuring prominent speakers to promote awareness and inclusion.

Frisk will candidly share his personal journey, including his experiences with mental health challenges and his ADHD diagnosis. Despite his public success, Frisk has faced bullying in his hometown of Enköping and openly discusses the struggles that affect 12% of Sweden's population concerning mental health.

The lecture aims to provide not only insight into Frisk's life but also practical advice on creating safe and empowering spaces for both youth and businesses. His message emphasizes the importance of environments where individuals feel safe to express themselves.

This event underscores ongoing efforts in Skellefteå to combine cultural celebration with advocacy for mental health and inclusivity, highlighting personal stories that resonate widely. The lecture is scheduled for February 11 at Scen 1 in Sara Kulturhus, making it a key happening of Pride Week 2026 in the region.
