Soo Tele 2 and Friends withdrew?

 

[blein]

Haha sweden again failed it

 

[Krishoes]

Stockholm is fading away

Bad start for Sweden.
Denmark still holds the record of the biggest arena in the contest.

So it stands with Globen, Scandinavium and..... Saab Arena perhaps?

My boyfriend lives in Linköping so it would be awesome if that would happen.

Why did Tele2 Arena withdraw?

Why did Tele2 Arena withdraw?

Tele2 and Friends are used for the Swedish football league teams AIK (Friends), Djurgården and Hammarby (Tele2) and the teams has refused to "lend out" the arena for such a long time.

Selfish bastards

Selfish bastards

In a way yes. xD

My ranking of the three that is left:
1. Saab Arena (Duh, cheapest for me...)
2. Globen
3. Scandinavium

Either way all three works for me!

That it what we call a big ESC-nation ... Sweden, Sweden, ... what are you doing with us?
And ... I mean football? Really? Better stick to the things you are good at

 

[Krishoes]

I can understand and accept (with regrets ) the idea of Gothenburg but... Linköping, seriously?!

 

[alca]

Linköping!!!!!

 

[Anjeza]

So we can all stay at your place [MENTION=4606]alca[/MENTION]? But seriously, why is it so difficult to find another place where the football clubs could play during ESC time? As far as I can remember they even constructed a small stadium in Düsseldorf to get the arena for ESC!

Sure. So far I have 215865885621485962 applications! Get in line!

I think the Ericsson Globe would be the best choice (and it also looks really cool ).

 

[Krishoes]

Tele2 Arena back in the game?

No, remember the ESC is already waaaaay to expensive - Everything needs to be sized down! Björkman demands smaller venues .... a cinema is enough

Or... Sandviken's Arena 1

I have a strong feeling it will be the Ericsson Globe. It is not too big and it is not too small, just the way SVT likes it. Big artists like Nicki Minaj and Ariana Grande has very recently had shows there, and the Swedish Idol finals are always there. Last final (December 2014) had a stage that I believe would be the ideal size for SVT to have, I think this clip truly shows the potential of the Ericsson Globe:

I doubt it will be Malmö again, Europe are going to scratch their heads and start to wonder if Malmö is the capital city of Sweden.

Smaller venues = better profit. I don't think building a stage in a bigger arena would cost more money, so maybe the Tele2 is Christer's secret favorite.
