Skellefteå AIK’s home arena will open before the match

An investigation is underway with an external party to review the roof capacity of the a-hall and develop long-term measures.

During the investigation, it has emerged that large amounts of snow on the roof are a danger. That’s why they closed the a-hall on Monday.

– This as a preventive precaution and to be able to examine the bearing capacity. Since Monday, extra shoveling was also put in both day and evening. It has now been decided that the a-hall will reopen on Thursday, February 29 at lunchtime, the municipality writes in a press release.
