Discover SkyView: Stockholm’s Elevated Experience

SkyView invites visitors to witness Stockholm from new heights with a distinct perspective on the city's skyline. Located on the exterior of the Avicii Arena, this unique attraction combines modern engineering with panoramic sightseeing, making it an essential stop for those seeking the best city views and innovative Swedish design.

A Swedish Icon: Construction and Transformation

The journey of SkyView began in 2010 when the iconic Avicii Arena underwent an extensive renovation. Engineers reinforced the building with 42 metric tonnes of steel and an additional 70 tonnes of rails installed on the outside. This transformation enabled the attachment of two specially designed glass gondolas, expertly crafted by Swedish ski lift manufacturers, ensuring both safety and a stunning viewing experience.
