The Nobel Lectures 2023

Welcome to the Academy’s official Nobel Lectures 2023, with this year’s Laureates in Physics, Chemistry and Economic Sciences.

Registered participants have received a confirmation e-mail upon registration that they must show at the entrance. All seats are taken, but, if you are only interested in Claudia Goldins lecture 14.00, there will probably be seats open, since some of the audience usually leave after the physics and chemistry part.

There will be a security check of participants and bags, so we urge everyone to be at the venue in good time before the event starts.

The doors will open 08:00.
