Hovet
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hovet, formerly known as Johanneshovs Isstadion, was built during the 1920s. It is an arena in Stockholm for mainly ice hockey, concerts and corporate events. It is the home arena for AIK and Hammarby IF, whilst Djurgårdens IF play some home matches in the arena. The official capacity is 8000 spectators.
The arena was officially inaugurated on November 4, 1955 with an ice hockey game between Sweden and Norway which Sweden won 7-2. A roof was added for the 1962 World Championships. During the fall of 2002, every chair was replaced and a restaurant area was added at one short end.
