Stockholms nation, Student nation in Uppsala, Sweden
Stockholms nation is a student society in Uppsala housed in a building that combines classical and modernist architectural features on Drottninggatan. The space serves students as a hub for dining, socializing, and attending events throughout the academic year.

The building hosts regular performances by student choirs, a dance group, and a house band that shape the cultural life of members. These gatherings throughout the year bring together students with shared interests in music and performance.
Access is restricted to members who pay an annual fee and gain access to meals, study spaces, and housing queue benefits in return. The facilities are most active during the academic year, especially in evenings and on weekends.
The Thursday gathering has become a cornerstone of student life in Uppsala, drawing large crowds each week. This regular social event has grown over the years into a well-known meeting point that extends far beyond the membership.
