About the city: Östersunds
Östersund, the administrative centre of Jämtland County in central Sweden, is a city where urban culture naturally blends with major sporting and music events. Located on the shores of Lake Storsjön and surrounded by Jämtland’s distinctive landscape, Östersund attracts visitors arriving for football, winter sports, concerts, festivals and cultural programmes. Important event venues include Jämtkraft Arena, Östersund Arena, the Östersunds Skidstadion sports complex and Stortorget in the heart of the city centre. Thanks to the city’s compact layout, restaurants, hotels, shops and numerous services are located relatively close to the main event venues.
Getting to and around Östersund is straightforward thanks to its well-organised transport infrastructure. The main railway station, Östersund Centralstation, connects the city with other parts of Sweden, while Åre Östersund Airport provides convenient access by air. Local transport consists of the Stadsbussarna city buses and Länstrafiken Jämtland regional services, which connect the centre with Frösön, the airport and other parts of the city and surrounding area. Jämtkraft Arena and Östersund Arena are located next to each other in the northern part of the city and can be reached from the centre by public transport, on foot, by taxi or by car, making it easier for visitors to organise their journey to sporting fixtures, concerts and other major events.
Before or after an event, it is worth exploring central Östersund, starting with Stortorget and the surrounding streets with shops, restaurants and characteristic city architecture. A short walk leads towards the shores of Lake Storsjön and Badhusparken, a popular area for walking and enjoying views towards the island of Frösön and Jämtland’s mountain landscape. Frösön offers viewpoints, Frösö kyrka and cultural attractions, while the Jamtli museum provides a deeper insight into the history and heritage of the region.
