Stockholm, Sweden. Since 1901, the Nobel Prize® has been honoring men and women from all corners of the globe for outstanding achievements in physics, chemistry, medicine, literature, and for work in peace. Since 1969 an additional prize has been awarded by Sweden’s Central Bank at the ceremony in Stockholm called The Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel.
At the Award Ceremony on 10th December, which takes place at the Stockholm Concert Hall, His Majesty the King of Sweden hands each Laureate a diploma and a medal. The Award Ceremony is followed by a Banquet at the Stockholm City Hall for about 1,300 people.
During their stay in Stockholm, the Laureates and their families are chauffeured in 12 black long-wheelbase BMW 7 Series cars by Freys Hyrverk, the limousine company which has been purveying services to the Nobel Foundation since 1901.
