Skovde is about 90 miles northeast of Gothenburg. For years, the convention organizer, Tarun Company, has hosted the health expo in Skovde each spring. Organizations providing health consultation and alternative therapies participate in the expo as a way to promote their services. The visitors are not only local citizens, but also from other cities.
The organizers scheduled two Falun Gong exercise demonstrations each day, and also included a photo of a practitioner doing the meditation in the expo brochure.
Visitors stopped at the Falun Gong booth continuously, reading the display boards, learning to make paper lotus flower and talking to practitioners. Many people signed a petition calling on the Swedish government to help end the persecution of Falun Gong in China.
A well-known guitar player and singer was invited to perform at the expo. After watching the Falun Gong demonstration, she told the practitioners that she wanted to learn the exercises. Many local residents also signed up to learn Falun Gong.
