Peace & Love City is a bandy club in Borlänge in Sweden. It was founded as Borlänge-Stora Tuna BK in 1981, when two clubs fusioned. The club was usually called Borlänge Bandy,[1] until 2016, when it changed to the present name because of a cooperation with the Peace & Love cultural festival.[2] The full legal name is still Ideella föreningen Borlänge-Stora Tuna Bandyklubb med firma Borlänge-Stora Tuna BK.[3]

The club has been playing in the second level league of Swedish bandy, Allsvenskan, in the 2010/11 season and again since the 2012/13 season.[4]

Borlänge Bandy has a cooperation agreement with the Somalia national bandy team. The latter team was created by Somali expats living in Borlänge and the well-known Borlänge Bandy coach Per Fosshaug is their head coach.[5]
