== The Venue ==
The Host venue for FSC #158 April 2022, is Kalmarsalen (The Kalmar Hall), in Kalmar, Sweden. Originally Kalmar Ångkvarn AB mill (from 1800s), it was sold to the city in 1990 to be used as a concert venue. It has subsequently become a multi-event concert hall which is located on the Kvarnholmen bay. It is used for various cultural events (including music concerts) and conferences / conventions as well as being an important social meeting place in the region. It is considered one of southern Sweden’s most popular cultural event places, both flexible & professional. The hall called “ Kvarnen ” in the Kalmarsalen building structure is prime for sound logistics & is usually used for concerts, musicals (anything from famous Broadway-musicals to newer innovative productions), theatre productions (for adults and children alike) , shows (including stand-up comedy) and such events . Combined standing and sitting capacity is for 1285, people which makes for an intimate fine experience. They are proud to host this evening’s edition of the Forum Song Contest.
