In Kalmar, the traditional celebration at Larmtorget was exchanged for a live broadcast with flag raising and speeches at Krusenstierska farm. Växjö chose a pre-recorded variant with interviews with Växjö residents, music and speeches by Mayor Bo Frank. Drill and music were offered from Ljungby in Hembygdsparken as well as speeches by the chairman of the municipal council Magnus Gunnarsson (M). Oskarshamn Municipality also offered a pre-recorded video concert and speeches from Stadsparken.

Stopped by rain

Hultsfred had grand plans to make the national anthem sound out over the city's residential areas from high altitude - they had rented the rescue service's lift car that would send singer Marlene Karlström high up in the air. But the buzzing rain also canceled the corona-secured celebration and it had to be broadcast a live broadcast on facebook from the fire station instead.
