NEEvery year, students from Chalmers University of Technology in Gothenburg bring the city to life with a spectacular event known as the Cortège.
This long standing tradition features engineering students building imaginative moving floats and mechanical contraptions that humorously comment on global events, political trends, and cultural moments.
What makes the Cortège unique is the blend of technical skill and sharp satire. The handmade vehicles roll through the streets as crowds gather to watch, laugh, and cheer. What began as a student celebration has grown into one of the city’s most anticipated cultural events, attracting thousands of spectators each year.
The Cortège reflects more than creativity. It showcases innovation, teamwork, and the playful side of engineering, turning complex mechanical design into a public festival of humor and intelligence.
