Reviews
It's brilliantly located and easy to get to using the metro/trains. Entrances at several sections of the venue. Pay attention to the details on your ticket and you'd be fine. The seating is also great..I could attend Raye's concert and also Hans Zimmer's and they were brilliant. The sound and lighting of the arena does a brilliant job

Avicii Arena, formerly the Ericsson Globe, and commonly referred to in Swedish simply as 'Globen' represents the Sun in the Sweden Solar System, the world's largest scale model of the Solar System.nnGloben was inaugurated on 19 February 1989 after a construction period of less than three years. In 2009, the naming rights to the Stockholm Globe Arena were officially acquired by Swedish telecommunications company Ericsson, and it became known as the Ericsson Globe. In 2021, it was announced that the arena would be renamed the Avicii Arena in honor of the late Swedish DJ Avicii, who died in 2018.nnIt has a seating capacity of 16,000 spectators for shows and concerts, and 13,850 for ice hockey. In the upper area there are 40 VIP boxes, including 'The 1989', an indoor cocktail bar, with premium seats, offering personal service throughout the event.
Avicii Arena is a unique and memorable venue that’s not too far from Stockholm’s city centre. The arena itself is hard to miss, its massive spherical design is very distinctive and unlike anything you usually see.nnOne of the highlights is riding the glass gondola along the outside of the structure up to the top. It’s a really cool experience, and the views from up there are fantastic, giving you a great perspective of the city and surrounding area.
Nice place for events and sightseeing, however this last a bit overpriced. Neighbourhood around is nice and the shopping mall near it is nice and clean. However w.c. you need to pay to use.
