Jamboree Programme

The Jamboree programme encompasses everything at the World Scout Jamboree. The Scouts will experience the 22nd World Scout Jamboree through: subcamp life, module activities, common areas, arena events and Camp in Camp.

Subcamp Life

Subcamps are the homes of the Scouts at the Jamboree. This is where most of the everyday camp life takes place; sleeping, cooking, cleaning etc. At the World Scout Jamboree, Scouts will have the tools to create their own home and plenty of time for subcamp life.

The close environment of a subcamp makes it easier to get to know new friends from other countries and to build a genuine understanding of each other. At the 22nd World Scout Jamboree every subcamp will have areas for socialising, including a small café, campfire circle and activity spaces. Subcamp life makes it possible for each Scout to influence and create his or her own Jamboree experience. Simply Scouting!

Module Activities

Hundreds of stimulating, fun, inclusive, modern, quality activities focused on discovering new cultures, the environment, sustainable development, global development issues, respect for oneself and for others, health, community development, peace and much much more!

These activities aim to give Scouts the knowledge and tools relevant to the needs of young people in the world today. Here, National Scout Organisations, non-governmental organisations and others pool their expertise to run fun, educational and challenging activities, which draw on the patrol system.

Common Areas

Everything outside the subcamps and scheduled activity areas are 'Common Areas': shared areas for everyone at the Jamboree. Common Areas are designed to facilitate meetings, so will include for example: cafés, unscheduled activity areas, exhibitions and specific spaces for faiths and beliefs.

Arena Events

Incredible events where thousands of Scouts get to play an interactive role in the programme. There will be three big arena events: the Opening Ceremony, a massive event in the middle of the Jamboree and the Closing Ceremony.

Camp in Camp

During the Jamboree, Scouts (in smaller groups of 100-200) will take part in a smaller overnight camp away from the Jamboree site. This “Camp in Camp” will give each and every one of the participating Scouts a chance to experience nature and small scale camping, in true Swedish style. This will be an opportunity to get to know a smaller group of new friends. This is Simply Scouting at its best!
