Find what's happening around you, discover events that match your interests, and see what your friends are into.
What??? Your favorite artist performed in your city last night and you completely missed it?
We've all been there. You open Instagram or TikTok and discover that an amazing concert, comedy show, party, or local event happened just around the corner. And somehow, you had absolutely no idea.
Over the past year, we've seen countless TikToks go viral about this exact frustration. There's so much happening around us, but finding the events we actually care about isn't always easy.
So we built something to change that.
Introducing Venga Discovery, a new AI-powered way to discover events, explore things to do near you, and make plans with friends.
Whether you're looking for concerts in Stockholm, parties in Gothenburg, things to do in Malmö, or events in Helsinki, Venga helps you find experiences worth leaving the house for.
Discover what's happening around you
Finding great events shouldn't mean scrolling through five different websites, checking endless Instagram accounts, or relying on your friends to tell you what's happening.
With Venga Discovery, you can explore events happening in your city, all in one place.
Looking for something fun to do this weekend? A live music event? A comedy show? A new running club? Or maybe just something different to do with your friends?
Venga helps you discover:
- Concerts and live music: Find upcoming gigs, performances, and music events.
- Parties and nightlife: Discover parties, club nights, and other nightlife experiences.
- Comedy and entertainment: Explore stand-up comedy, live shows, and performances.
- Sports and fitness: Find running clubs, workouts, and community sports events.
- Food and social experiences: Discover supper clubs, tastings, and other gatherings.
- Art and culture: Explore exhibitions, cultural events, and creative experiences.
From big concerts to smaller local gatherings, there's always something new happening around you.
Event discovery, personalized to your taste
Not everyone likes the same things. Some people love live music and nightlife. Others prefer running clubs, food experiences, art exhibitions, or comedy shows.
That's why Venga Discovery is designed around your interests.
When you get started, you choose a few categories that match your taste. Venga then helps you explore relevant events through a simple, swipeable feed.
See something interesting? Save it or mark yourself as Interested.
Not your thing? Keep exploring.
The more you interact with events, the more Venga can learn about your preferences and help you find experiences you're likely to enjoy.
It's a more personal way to discover what's happening around you, without having to search for everything yourself.
Find concerts, events, and things to do in your city
We're bringing Venga Discovery to cities where there's always something happening, but discovering it all can be a challenge.
Things to do in Stockholm
Looking for events in Stockholm this weekend?
From live concerts and comedy shows to running clubs, nightlife, and cultural experiences, Stockholm has plenty to offer.
With Venga, you can explore what's happening in Stockholm, find events that match your interests, and discover new experiences around the city.

Discover things to do in Malmö
From concerts and nightlife to cultural experiences and community gatherings, there's always something to discover in Malmö.
Venga makes it easier to find upcoming events in Malmö, explore activities that interest you, and make plans without having to search across multiple platforms.
Find events in Helsinki
Looking for concerts, parties, or things to do in Helsinki?
Venga Discovery also helps you explore events in Finland's capital, from live music and entertainment to sports, nightlife, and social gatherings.
Whether you're a local or visiting Helsinki for the weekend, you can find experiences that match your interests.
Venga Discovery is currently available in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö, and Helsinki, with more cities on the way.
See what your friends are interested in
Finding something fun to do is one thing. Finding people to go with is another.
That's why we've made friends a central part of Venga Discovery.
With the Friends tab, you can see which events your friends are interested in, making it easier to discover experiences through the people you know.
Maybe your friend has saved a concert you didn't know about. Maybe a few people are interested in the same party. Or maybe you discover a new activity you wouldn't have considered otherwise.
You can also share any event directly with friends using a link.
See it. Save it. Share it.
And most importantly, actually do it. Together.
Find event tickets and make plans in one place
Discovering an event is only the beginning.
When you find something you like on Venga, you can access available ticket links directly from the event page.
No need to spend another ten minutes figuring out where to buy tickets or how to attend.
You can also save events you're interested in, share them with friends, and come back when you're ready to make plans.
Whether you're planning a spontaneous night out or organizing your weekend in advance, Venga makes the journey from discovering an event to attending it easier.
Never miss out on a great event again
There are amazing experiences happening around us every day.
Concerts you would have loved. Parties your friends are going to. New communities to join. Events that could turn an ordinary weekend into something memorable.
The problem isn't always that there's nothing to do.
Sometimes, it's simply that we don't know what's happening.
We built Venga Discovery to help change that.
To make it easier to find events you care about, discover new interests, and spend more time doing things in real life.
Your next plan starts here
Venga Discovery is available in the Venga app and on the web.
Choose your interests, explore events near you, see what your friends are into, and find something worth getting out of the house for.
Starting in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Malmö, and Helsinki, with more cities coming soon.
