The name change will take effect on July 12. The background is a new agreement between hotel billionaire Petter Stordalen’s company Strawberry and Stockholm Live, which is responsible for the operation of the arena.
Stockholm Live states at the same time that the Friends Foundation and their work against bullying will continue to be represented in the arena.
Friends Arena in Solna is Sweden’s national arena and AIK Football’s home arena with a capacity of up to 60,000 people.
