Two Arena Nights: Avicii Arena and Tele2 Arena
Two nights in Stockholm sit behind four of our designs. Here is what happened on each.
What happened at Avicii Arena?
On 30 September 2023 I played my first arena show, and it sold out. The show was first planned for Hovet, which sold out the same day, so it moved up to Avicii Arena. It was the first time a Swedish hip-hop artist sold out the arena on his own.
- Antwan Avicii Arena Globe: a blue globe badge on the front, glossy chrome letters and the date 23.09.30 on the back.
- Antwan Avicii Arena Angel: my name in brush script on the front, a winged statue with a wireframe globe and chrome thorns on the back.
And Tele2 Arena?
On 12 October 2024 I headlined a sold-out Tele2 Arena, the first time a Swedish hip-hop act has headlined it. The crowd was 40,899, which beat Madonna's 2015 record.
- Antwan Tele2 Arena: the arena's coordinates and OCTOBER 12.2024 on the front, and a stencil gig poster, ANT WAN AT TELE 2, on the back.
What came after?
In early 2024 I won Artist of the Year and Guldmicken, best live act, at P3 Guld.
Tip: if you were there, pick the design with your date on it. It's the one people ask about when you walk away.
