förpump

Förmp is a Swedish term that loosely translates to "pre-party" or "pre-drinking." It refers to a social gathering that takes place before heading out to a larger event, such as a club, concert, or another party. Förmp is a common practice, especially among younger adults, and often involves friends gathering at someone's home or a rented space to socialize and consume alcoholic beverages before moving on to the main event. The atmosphere at a förmp is typically more relaxed and informal than at the subsequent party, allowing for easier conversation and a chance to prepare for the night ahead. It's also a cost-effective way to consume alcohol, as beverages are usually purchased and consumed at a private residence rather than at more expensive venues. The duration of a förmp can vary, but it generally lasts for a couple of hours, ending when the group decides it's time to depart for their next destination. It's a significant part of the social culture in Sweden and many other countries.
