The Swedish Grand Prix was a round of the Formula One World Championship from 1973 to 1978. It took place at the Scandinavian Raceway in Anderstorp (Gislaved Municipality), Sweden.
There has been no Swedish Grand Prix after 1978. The deaths in 1978 of Ronnie Peterson contributed to the demise of this round of the world championship.
The circuit hosted Touring Car races in the 1980s, and has been a popular car club venue since the 1990s.
The FIA World Touring Car Championship (WTCC) returned to Anderstorp in 2007, replacing the Istanbul Park in Turkey on the WTCC calendar.
