Gothenburg reveals winning designs for new Scandinavium arena and central bath complex. The projects will transform the city's sports and recreation infrastructure. Construction timelines await official confirmation.
Gothenburg has selected winning designs for its new arena district and central bath complex. Architectural competitions determined how the sports and recreation facilities will look. White Arkitekter won the contract for the major redevelopment project. Johan Lundin, lead architect at the firm, expressed pride in the selection. He said the competition was tough, which made the win especially honorable. The new Scandinavium will replace the existing 50-year-old arena.

These facilities aim to serve both professional athletes and public users. Gothenburg officials hope the projects will boost local tourism. The city continues investing in major infrastructure despite economic pressures. Construction timelines and exact costs remain undisclosed. When will residents see construction begin on these projects? The designs suggest a modern approach to public space planning. Both facilities prioritize accessibility and multi-purpose use.
