About this venue
Tele2 Arena (also known as 3Arena) is more than a stadium—it’s a modern landmark with a distinctive profile and a retractable roof that keeps events on track in any weather. Built for top-level football and major live shows, it can host up to around 45,000 fans for concerts and about 30,000 for sports configurations, delivering a big-event feel without losing intimacy.
Inside, the experience is notably close to the action—the front rows sit very near the touchline, which amplifies match intensity, while concerts benefit from a powerful, clear sound and strong crowd energy. Visitors appreciate the sightlines, comfortable seating, and convenient food-and-drink options that make arriving early (and staying after) genuinely easy.
The address is Arenaslingan 14, Stockholm, Sweden. The easiest approach is via the Globen area entrances; the arena is served by the nearby Globen and Gullmarsplan stops, and if you’re driving, Arenagaraget beneath the complex is a practical choice.

About the city: Stockholm
Stockholm, Sweden’s capital spread across an archipelago, is not only a symbol of Scandinavian design and culture but also one of Europe’s most appealing destinations for concerts, sporting fixtures, and major events. The city blends refined urban energy with sweeping views of water and islands, so attending an event often becomes just the centerpiece of a broader experience. With a wide range of neighborhoods, it’s easy to find a place for nightlife, a great meal, or a relaxed walk before and after the program—without feeling like you’re losing time to logistics.
Stockholm prides itself on highly functional transport infrastructure, making it quick and simple to reach the main arenas, venues, and stadiums. Public transport is managed by SL, and visitors most often rely on the Tunnelbana metro, Pendeltåg commuter trains, Spårvagn trams, and bus routes that link key parts of the city. If you arrive by train, the central hub is Stockholm Centralstation (Stockholm C), with especially convenient connections across the city. For those flying in, Stockholm Arlanda Airport is the main international airport, with Bromma Stockholm Airport available as an additional option—making trip planning easy regardless of your travel style.
When you want to add a tourist “bonus” to your event visit, Stockholm offers plenty within easy reach. Stroll through Gamla Stan, the historic heart with narrow streets and squares that create a distinctive atmosphere, or linger along the waterfront promenades and bridges where the city’s character on the water comes through best. For a slower pace, there are walkways and parks on the islands, and many visitors also choose museum-and-greenery areas such as Djurgården to round out the day before heading back to the venue or after the show ends.
