The stadium is located a 1.2 kilometer (about 0.75 miles) walk from the Solna commuter train station (about six km (3,7 miles) from Stockholm Central Station) and has parking for 300 buses and 4,000 cars. Along with the stadium, there will also be built a number of hotels (400 rooms), restaurants (8,000 guests), shopping mall (240 shops), office areas for 10,000 employees, conference/exhibition centres and 2,000 flats. The mall is planned to be called Mall of Scandinavia and will be the biggest shopping centre constructed in Sweden. The total project is calculated to cost more than 4 billion SEK.
Travel by public transport to the arena is available by commuter rail to the Solna station, or the Tvärbanan tramway (under construction until 2013) also to the Solna station, or by local bus routes; although all details have not yet been fully determined.

“Type of the wise, who soar, but never roam—
True to the kindred points of Heaven and Home!”

—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“You do not mean by mystery what a Catholic does. You mean an interesting uncertainty: the uncertainty ceasing interest ceases also.... But a Catholic by mystery means an incomprehensible certainty: without certainty, without formulation there is no interest;... the clearer the formulation the greater the interest.”
—Gerard Manley Hopkins (1844–1889)
