 There it is – GLOBEN...! by Maline
I remember when this was built in the late 1980's, it was thought to become such a cool building, and actually I think it is in some ways.
It was inaugurated in 1989, and has since then been the arena for both huge rock concerts (a memorable one in 1992 by Bruce Springsteen drew a crowd of some 16 000 people) and hockey games.
I have been to a number of concerts here, and it is an impressing edifice.
Surrounding the Globe arena is a huge shopping complex with stores, cafes and restaurants. Get some shopping done while you're here!
In the pic: The tip was created before I got myself a digital camera, so I treat you here to my own image of the Globe...:-) Leave a Comment Directions: Southern Stockholm. It can be reached by subway. The station is called "Globen"

Before I went to Globen, I had no idea what to expect. I was extremely surprised to see a huge dome that looked like a golf ball. It would have been fun to be able to go to a concert held in the Globe Arena, but I didn't have the time. It's a quick trip, but there's a mall right next to it. I highly recommend visiting Globen at night when it is lit up by changing colors of light. It really helps to have a subway pass. There's a stop at Globen right next to the dome.

 I think we'll need bigger golf
clubs... by MickeH
In this arena you can se concerts, horse shows and many of the bigger events in Stockholm.
But mainly is is an icehockey arena. DIF and AIK play here.
Around the arena there are plenty of bars and restaurants so if you are going here for a show or game then come early and warm up here near the arena rather than in downtown.
Like most arenas it is some way away from central sthlm but the subway takes you all the way there so you shouldn't have any problems finding it. Leave a Comment
