The 2025 Bilderberg Conference is being held between June 12–June 15, 2025 at the Grand Hôtel in Stockholm, Sweden.[1][2] The 2025 meeting is the 71st edition of the event. A Bilderberg Group press release listed 121 participants from 23 countries.[3]

Established in 1954 by Prince Bernhard of the Netherlands, Bilderberg conferences (or meetings) are an annual private gathering of the European and North American political and business elite. Events are attended by between 120 and 150 people each year invited by the Bilderberg Group's steering committee; including prominent politicians, CEOs, national security experts, academics and journalists.[4][5][6]

Bilderberg conferences operate under the Chatham House Rule, meaning that participants are sworn to secrecy and cannot disclose the identity or affiliation of any particular speaker.[4] As a result, media are not invited and delegates rarely speak about what was discussed.[1]

Permits for two public demonstrations against the meeting were requested, one of which, a march from the Norrmalm Square to the Grand Hôtel, was planned for June 14.[7]

Agenda

The key topics for discussion were announced on the Bilderberg website shortly before the meeting.[2] These topics included:

Participants

[edit]

A list of 121 participants was published on the Bilderberg website.[3] This list may not be complete, as a source connected to the Bilderberg group told The Daily Telegraph in 2013 that some attendees do not have their names publicized.[8] Prime Minister of Sweden Ulf Kristersson attended the meeting despite his name not appearing on the published participant list.[1][9]
