Vitlycke’s main mission is to host projects in residency with a focus on offering ideal conditions for rehearsals and the creative process.
The residencies usually culminate with informal presentations. It’s an occasion to share the process with an inter-generational, curious audience and allows artists and professionals to integrate with the local community.

Often the residencies have been organised in collaboration with several Regional Institutions such as Kultur i Väst, Göteborgs dans- och teaterfestival/Stora Teatern and Lokstallet/Strömstad Kommun.

In addition to the projects organised in collaboration with other institutions, Vitlycke runs an independent programme of residencies. So far it has welcomed mostly freelance Scandinavian groups/solo practitioners, and has also hosted the rehearsals of several Wee/Francesco Scavetta productions.
