Artwork

A small cottage in Aluminium, aluminum with a {{convert, 12, m2, adj=on base was placed upon the Globe on 26 May 2009. The artist, Mikael Genberg, intended it to illustrate two important symbols for Sweden: the high-technology Globe building and the traditional, simple small countryside cottage in Falu red with white trim. The house was positioned some distance from the exact top position of the Globe. Genberg also hoped to eventually place a similar cottage on the Moon, which has not yet happened. The cottage remained on the Globe until October 2009.


Skyview

{{More citations needed section, date=November 2023 Opened in February 2010, Skyview is an exterior inclined elevator which transports visitors to the top of the arena for a virtually unobstructed view of Stockholm. It has two spherical gondolas, each able to accommodate up to 12 passengers, which travel along parallel tracks on the exterior of the south side of the globe.{{Cite web , title=SkyView - Avicii Arena , url=https://aviciiarena.se/skyview/ , access-date=2023-10-30 , website=aviciiarena.se , language=en
