The celebration included a gala dinner hosted in the elegant rooms of the Grand Hotel, where the illustrious guests of the ceremony were welcomed in a private VIP room with glasses filled with Ferrari Brut Trentodoc and Ferrari Perlé Trentodoc.

The glasses filled with Ferrari bubbles weren’t raised only at the prize-giving ceremony of the Polar Prize: Ferrari Brut Trentodoc bottles were opened also the pre-party organised on the eve of the event at the house of Marie Ledin, Stig Anderson’s daughter, for a party that was attended by several important names of the music industry and the Swedish high society.
