The Dome Sweden

Sports and events arena & sports park

We are planning a multi-sports arena where everyone is welcome, a 15,000-seat centre court for sport and culture, and a public sports park, designed on the award-winning Bourbon Beans Dome by the Japanese architect Endo Shuhei. Not a sports venue but social infrastructure: one building that addresses the region’s thirty-year shortage of facilities, its public-health bill and its integration challenge. We are looking for investors, municipalities, public bodies and sponsors to build it together.

Four reasons the region needs The Dome

Sports City Stockholm

A strong sports movement contributes to building social sustainability in society. Everyone should have the opportunity for physical activity in a city that is growing, hence the need for guaranteed access to sports facilities.

Sports park

The public is encouraged to participate in outdoor sports, such as climbing walls, exercise machines and team sports in the field. Running track around the perimeter of the park is artificially frozen in winter for cross-country skiing.

Events

Our 15,000 seat center court is suitable for showcasing the most prestigious sporting extravaganzas as well as socio-cultural events such as concerts, stand-up comedians and many other innovative events.

Environmental

The Dome Sweden’s construction and operation is sustainable through and through. It respects and promotes the environment and surrounding nature. In line with Sweden’s goal to reach Net-Zero emissions, it will strive to become the first fully sustainable and smart arena in Scandinavia.

Stockholm and its region face serious challenges.

The capital suffers from inequality in sports facilities, a shortage that has lasted more than thirty years, poor integration of new Swedes and a rise in gang culture and crime. The Dome Sweden aims to be a place where people thrive through sport, meet, and learn the values of community life.

Based on a built, award-winning arena.

The Dome Sweden offers new and exciting opportunities for the future of Swedish sport. It is based on the successful and award-winning design by Japanese architect Endo Shuhei: the Bourbon Beans Dome of Miki City, built near Kobe, Japan, which hosts international tennis events under one roof, surrounded by a public park.

Where world champions are born, and for everyone else too

Swedish talents should not have to leave the country at fourteen to develop. An arena where professionals and recreational players train side by side, with coaches in every sport and indoor courts all year, keeps the next generation at home.

Questions people ask before they get in touch

What is The Dome Sweden?
The Dome Sweden is a planned multi-sports arena and public sports park for the Stockholm region. Under one roof you play and practice tennis, squash, padel, beach tennis, touchtennis, badminton, table tennis and fitness with professional trainers. A 15,000-seat centre court hosts national and international sport as well as concerts and other cultural events. Around the arena, a sports park with climbing walls, exercise machines and team-sport fields is open to the public, with a running track that is artificially frozen in winter for cross-country skiing.
Where will The Dome Sweden be built?
In the Stockholm region. The final site depends on the partnership with a municipality, which is one of the things we are looking for. If your municipality has land and a shortage of sports facilities, we would like to talk.
Who is behind the project?
Founder and CEO Fabrice Mary, former player and international tennis coach, with a team that includes Ingrid Löfdahl Bentzer, Jean-Jacques Zander, architect Endo Shuhei and advisors Anders and Bengt Grundberg. The Dome Sweden Intl. is a purpose-driven company.
Is the arena based on an existing building?
Yes. The design is based on the Bourbon Beans Dome of Miki City, built near Kobe in Japan by the award-winning architect Endo Shuhei, who is part of The Dome Sweden team. The photos on this site show that arena.
How can I get involved?
As an investor, as a municipality or public body with a site and a need, as a sponsor or partner, or as a federation, club or coach. Use the contact form, request the investor presentation, or email info@thedomesweden.com. Fabrice Mary replies himself.
Why do you call The Dome Sweden social infrastructure?
Because its effects reach far beyond sport: the healthcare budget, the school day, the labour market and the safety of a neighbourhood. Sport, health, education, community and events in one building are infrastructure for a city, which is why the project is a question for municipalities, investors and partners together.
How will you show the impact?
By measuring it. From day one the arena will report publicly every year on a fixed set of indicators, from visitors and the share of children and young people to school programmes, events, jobs, physical-activity outcomes and environmental data, against the UN Sustainable Development Goals. See the impact page.
