The “Friends Arena”, formerly “Swedbank Arena”, is a multifunctional sports stadium, located in Solna, Sweden.
With 54,329 seats it is the largest stadium in Sweden. Hollandia’s scope included the installation of the moveable steel roof for this stadium.
Thanks to the retractable roof, the Friends Arena is also the biggest indoor arena in Europe.
The roof panels were assembled at ground level and then mounted on the fixed roof using heavy cranes. Hollandia also supplied and carried out the movement work.
