Array JLabel ActionListener multiple JPanels

I have an array of JLabels and I want to add an ActionListener to them. Every label should display a panel and the other should be removed. How can I realize this?

JLabel doesn't have ActionListener support. You can use a undecorated JButton instead

Use a CardLayout

You cannot directly add an ActionListener to a JLabel - it doesn't have that functionality. Instead, you should create a MouseAdapter, override the mouseClicked method, and use JLabel.addMouseListener to add it to your JLabels. The best way to get it to, as you say, "display a panel and the other should be removed" would be to use a CardLayout.
