Raggare Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description

Raggare is a subculture found mostly in Sweden and parts of Norway and Finland, mostly in rural environments and smaller villages. Raggare have existed since the 1950s and haven't changed much since then. The culture is based on popular culture of the 1950s and very important to raggare is their cars, they are preferably large US cars from that era. The music of choice is rockabilly. Raggare often got into fights with hippies and in the 1970s also with punks, something described in the punk song "Raggare Is A Bunch Of Motherfuckers" by Rude Kids.

One of the most popular artists among raggare is Eddie Meduza.

The raggar-culture very much lives on in Sweden, and there are several meetings for raggare around Sweden. The Power Big Meet is the most famous one, and is also the biggest car show in the world.
