Concerts in Malmö Arena

Experience Malmö Arena

Malmö Arena, inaugurated in November 2005, is Sweden’s largest multi-event arena, located in Hyllie, Malmö. Constructed to host the 2004 Eurovision Song Contest following Sweden’s victory in 2003 – a pivotal moment solidifying its cultural significance – the arena boasts a flexible design accommodating between 12,600 (seated concerts) and 15,500 (standing concerts/sporting events). Its architectural design, by renowned firm LRF Arkitekter, features a distinctive copper-coloured facade and a retractable roof allowing for open-air events.

Beyond Eurovision, Malmö Arena regularly hosts major international sporting events like the World Ice Hockey Championships and Davis Cup tennis matches. Musically, it's a popular venue for diverse genres including pop (Taylor Swift, Rihanna), rock (Kiss), electronic dance music (Avicii tribute concert), and arena-scale Swedish artists.

Unique features include adaptable floor space – easily configured for varying event needs – and state-of-the-art sound and lighting systems. The arena’s location within the rapidly developing Hyllie district contributes to its modern appeal and accessibility via public transport.
