Svensk Hyllningsfest (Swedish: [ˈsvɛnːsk ˈhʏ̂lːnɪŋsˌfɛst], "Swedish Honoring Festival")[1] is a biennial celebration held in Lindsborg, Kansas, in October of odd-numbered years since 1941 to celebrate the town's Swedish heritage. The festival includes Swedish dancing, foods including lutfisk, cooking demonstrations, arts and crafts, entertainment by local artists and musicians, a parade, and a smörgåsbord.

The next Svensk Hyllningsfest will occur October 18 & 19, 2019. Lindsborg is located just twenty miles south of Interstate 70 on Interstate 135, or seventy miles north of Wichita on Interstate 135.
