Classic Hovet was Stockholm's first ice hockey arena and is considered one of Sweden's most historic arenas. It was already inaugurated in 1955, then as an open arena with the name Johanneshovs Isstadion. 8 years later the specially designed roof was added and in 1989 the arena was officially named Hovet.
Today, Hovet is home to AIK Hockey and Djurgården Hockey and a popular multi-arena which, in addition to hockey, is also widely used for concerts and corporate events. Over the years, greats such as Queen, Prince, Rihanna and Stevie Wonder have visited Hovet.
