The March Unrest (Swedish: Marsoroligheterna [ˈmâʂːˌuːruːlɪɡˌheːtɛɳa]) Sometimes called "the battle for Stockholm"[citation needed] was a brief series of riots which occurred in the Swedish capital Stockholm during the Revolutions of 1848.

That afternoon, a banquet was arranged at the luxury Hotel de la Croix.

[citation needed] On the evening, a crowd gathered between the Royal Palace and the Storkyrkan.

King Oscar I of Sweden, who was attending a performance by Jenny Lind at the Royal Swedish Opera, met the protesters at Storkyrkobrinken, listened to their complaints and ordered the release of the arrested, which dissolved the crowd.

On 21 March, reinforcements from the army arrived to the capital to be at hand in case of further riots, but none occurred.
