Swedish media personality and author Alex Schulman celebrated his 50th birthday with a star-studded party at the iconic Gondolen restaurant in Stockholm on Friday, April 24, 2026.
The festivities brought together a notable guest list, including SVT correspondent Messiah Hallberg, who said he was “incredibly excited” to attend and revealed he had contacted an old friend to secure a clothing gift he hoped Schulman would appreciate.
Likewise in attendance were H&M chairman Karl-Johan Persson and his wife Leonie Persson, along with Jan and Ellen Dinkelspiel, as Schulman marked the milestone with close friends and industry peers.
Although Schulman actually turned 50 back in February, the celebration was delayed until now, allowing for a proper gathering with fans and fellow celebrities.
The author, who released his book “17 June” last autumn, enjoyed views over the city from the renowned Slussen venue during the evening’s proceedings.
Meanwhile, across town, the Elle gala was underway at the Grand Hotel, making for a busy night of high-profile events in Stockholm.
