For us, Steampunk is a passion! And we want to share that passion with everyone with a similar interest in what once was but ain’t no more, or what wasn't, but might have been... Our passion in an age where one took pride in marvellous inventions and made sure they looked every bit as awesome as possible! An age of creativity, positivity and spectacular style!
That is what SilwerSteam aims to bring to all!
Tickets for SilwerSteam can be found to the right on this page (see bottom of this section for details).

​
We are looking for more wondrous artifacts to exhibit at the museum. We want art to be exhibited and sold. We want more lecturers and workshop leaders, of course you do know something that could benefit other enthusiasts!
Are you our next Tea Duelist Champion? Will you participate in Steampunk team contest or play at our board games hang-out?
If your costume is a matter of pride for you why don't enter our costume fashion show and contest?!
Are you an ingenious (or just mad) inventor and technical know-what, then enter our inventor show-case to discuss, share and show off robots, gadgets and steampunk artifacts that actually do something, in contrast to just looking cool!
Need more paraphernalia, a hat or an almost-never-imploding-ray-gun-of-awesomeness? Take a stroll at our craftsmen distributed around the museum, where you can see the most beautiful steam engines puffing away!
And at the end of the day, we all gather at the new venue of the "Steampunky" pub Slussvaktaren down by the stream that's also open for us SilwerSteamers!
​
That is what SilwerSteam aims to bring to all!

SilwerSteam is hosted by Anna & Nicklas Silwerulv. The couple lives in Sweden with a dog, a cat and 6 children and way too many books and board games (if that is at all possible!). The have organized events since they met each other in the year 2000 at a Viking burial site. They work under the name Silwerulv Historical Events, part of the non-profit organization Silwerulv Historical Society, most often within the cultural history sphere, and have made everything from conventions, festivals, LARP's, theater and exhibitions.
If you are curious about some of the other things they have worked on, head over to Historical Events Facebook page and make sure to check out their photo albums!
