Möllevångstorget in Malmö became a central launch site for southern Sweden's fireworks on New Year's Eve. Photographer Patrick Persson documented the celebration with photos and videos. The event attracted many spectators despite the cold.

On New Year's Eve, Möllevångstorget in Malmö turned into a lively stage for fireworks. The square served as a launchpad for almost the entire southern Sweden's collected fireworks arsenal, according to Sydsvenskan. Photographer Patrick Persson captured the colorful explosions in photos and videos showing cheering crowds and a lit-up sky.

The article, written by Ludvig Samuelsson, highlights how Möllevångstorget once again became the site for the annual New Year's celebration. No specific incidents are mentioned in the report, but Expressen reported in parallel about an explosion in Malmö that caused damage to a residential building. It is unclear if the events are connected, but both occurred during New Year's night.

The celebrations in Skåne were monitored through live reports, with updates on festivities and potential rescue operations. Möllevångstorget's traditional role as a gathering point underscores its importance for local residents.
