The notice was issued in May last year and came after an action plan was launched due to the tough economic situation, to save 50 million kronor between 2024-2027.

It is now clear that the goal will be achieved without layoffs, among other things through natural departure, voluntary redundancy offers, and fixed-term contracts that will not be renewed.

The total staff reduction will be 44 man-years by 2027, which corresponds to eight percent of the entire staff.

"It's a major joint effort that we've carried out together and it's naturally a great relief that we, as it looks today, will manage the staff reduction without layoffs", says Christina Björklund, CEO of the Gothenburg Opera, in a press release.
