They were the first ones in at the newly renovated Avicii arena – now they're the last ones out on the first evening of Way Out West. Kite will be one of the major attractions at the summer music festival in Gothenburg.

The performance in Slottsskogen will be the only one the band does in Sweden this summer, writes Way Out West in a press release.

The duo, consisting of Nicklas Stenemo and Christian Hutchinson Berg, has become a big live favorite among the Swedish concert audience. On February 1, Kite became the first band to play at Avicii arena in Stockholm, which opened after the renovation, and in 2023 they drew a large audience to a performance in Dalhalla.

This year's Way Out West is arranged on August 7-9 with Charli XCX, Chappell Roan, and Iggy Pop as the biggest headliners.
