The Avicii Arena is the centerpiece of the Solar System model in Sweden, representing the Sun.
The tracks for the gondolas are constructed from 70 tons of steel.
The entire structure of the Ericsson Globe was inaugurated in 1989.
The gondolas travel to the very apex of the sphere, which is 85 meters above the ground level of the arena floor.
The arena was renamed in honor of Swedish DJ Avicii in 2021.
Skyview consists of two custom-built glass gondolas that travel along parallel tracks on the exterior of the Avicii Arena. The structure is the world's largest spherical building, reaching a peak altitude of 130 meters above sea level. Each gondola has a capacity of 16 passengers, providing a 20-minute round trip journey. The track follows the curvature of the arena's white dome, offering panoramic views of Stockholm and the southern suburbs. The arena itself is a prominent landmark in the Johanneshov district, known for its distinct spherical architecture.
