About 3Arena: Layout, History & Architecture

Constructed in 1989, the venue now known as 3Arena in Johanneshov, Sweden, presents a striking modernist architectural profile as the world's largest spherical building. Originally opened as the Globe Arena and later renamed Ericsson Globe before its current designation, this iconic structure dominates the Johanneshov skyline. The auditorium offers a flexible capacity, accommodating up to 16,000 patrons for concerts and live events. Its interior layout primarily features tiered seating that rings the central performance space, complemented by a adaptable flat floor area that can be configured for standing audiences or additional seating.

Sightlines throughout the spherical hall are generally expansive, though the sheer scale of the upper tiers can render the stage distant for some patrons. The structure's concrete and steel composition, while visually imposing, naturally contributes to a highly reverberant acoustic environment. Consequently, the sonic experience relies heavily on sophisticated, well-tuned public address systems to achieve clarity and impact across the vast space, rather than inherent architectural acoustic warmth. The design prioritises visual spectacle and capacity over nuanced acoustic detail.

The Live Experience & Current Schedule

Ingress to 3Arena is managed through several clearly marked entry points around the building's perimeter, typically employing managed queue systems for security checks and ticket scanning. Foyer bars are distributed across multiple levels, offering standard arena refreshments; these can become congested during peak times. Within the main auditorium, the standing pit provides direct, energetic proximity to the stage, though density can be significant. For those in seated balconies, views are elevated and generally unobstructed, offering a broad perspective of the performance, albeit with varying degrees of intimacy depending on the section. The overall atmosphere during events is often electric, amplified by the scale of the crowd in this vast enclosed space. With 1 live performances scheduled, upcoming entry prices start from £401.28. The next confirmed event on the calendar is Stevie Wonder Stockholm on 22nd October 2026.
