The entire arena takes around 7k. But anyone with a pair of working eyes would see they'll only use about half of the arena.

I'm pretty sure it's only possible to use half the Arena since everyone has to look at one stage, for hockey the Arena is probably 10-12k people.


thats somewhat true. i just googled it though and it says it holds 7k people for ice hockey, but 1100 of them are standing, thus the arena has less than 6k seats. the largest arena in sweden actually holds 13850 for hockey, over double the size as this arena.

I dont want to come off as negative about this, i just was confused at how they said it was on of the largest when really its just not.

Sweden doesn't have that many arenas. I would guess it's somewhere between the 5-10 largest arena. I guess that qualifies it as one of the largest.

You'd think by now some scientist should have figured out Star-Trek-esque long distance beaming.
Damn slowpoke science, hurting eSPORTS!

I don't watch hockey but... and I'm not trying to say this isn't awesome, because it is but... isn't 4,000+ seats a little low for, "...Kinnarps Arena, one of Sweden’s largest ice hockey arenas, where over 4.000 eSports fans can watch the best live esports entertainment in the world."?

I mean, your average American Handegg stadium seats a massive 60,000-80,000 people, but even your typical NBA Basketball Court seats ~15,000.

From the picture, the stage is going to cut off 1 of the 4 side of the stadium, so that makes sense that it would be at least 1/4-1/2 less seats. Hm...

I wonder what the typical attendance for Dreamhack Winter is and they just don't want empty seats.

(Again, I'm not saying 4,000+ people at an eSports event is a small number. I'm just talking about the stadium and how much of it they're going to use.)


edit: Eh, maybe I should read more than the OP next time.
