The entrances are open all evening so you can arrive later, but we recommend you to be here in good time as there will be many visitors and the entrance can take time.

Be here in good time

Many fans are expected for the concerts and because Friends Arena and the event owner demand a high level of security entry to the Arena it can take longer than expected. For this reason you should be here in good time and leave larger belongings at home.

Wardrobe/Cloakroom

There will be a limited wardrobe for floor ticket holders and no wardrobe for seating tickets. You can deposit larger bags and other items you are not allowed to bring into the arena in our cloakroom between entrance E and entrance F. It cost 50 SEK (card payment only).

We recommend everyone to bring lighter jackets despite the cold (sorry!) and very small or preferably no handbags. There's a very limited space for luggage. We want everyone to enjoy the concert and due to the amount of people and limited wardrobe space we'd like to avoid long wardrobe queues in check-in and check-out of your personal items.

Practical information
