  The Globe Arena in Stockholm
The Globe Arena, the largest spherical building in the world with an inside-height of up to 85 meters, stands out as a symbol for the city of Stockholm and Sweden.
With a seating capacity of 13.850 for hockey and up to 16.300 for other events the arena itself is one of the largest arenas in european hockey but still rather small compared to NHL standards, off course the visitor will also find corporate suits between the seating-levels for the normal spectators.
While there are no official standing-room tickets sold at the Globe Arena the supporters of both clubs always stand at one of the short sides of the rink and turn that part of the arena in a standing-room section, chanting and singing throughout the event.

 The Manila Times Internet Edition | BUSINESS > Globe bucks auction for 3G frequencies
GLOBE Telecom Inc., the Philippines’ second-largest mobile-phone service provider said that telecom companies may abandon 3G (third-generation) frequencies awarded to them similar to what happened in Europe if the government abides by a Congress resolution urging an auction of licenses.
In its position paper, Globe said many licenses in Europe were returned owing to the inability of operators to deliver on their rollout and commercial obligations.
Telcos like Telefonica Moviles in Austria, Orange in Sweden and the two Norwegian operators, Sonera and Tele2 returned their licenses, according to Globe, adding that Mobilcom was next to leave the German 3G arena, after cutting jobs and teetering on the verge of bankruptcy.

A new sound installation at the famous Globe Arena in Stockholm, scene of the 2000 European Song Contest, will feature clusters of Martin Audio Wavefront 8 Compacts.
“The reason for the expansion,” explained DM Audio’s Lars Wern, “ is that when the arena has hosted touring artists their sound engineers have often received complaints from the audience seated in the highest seats.
To help the visiting sound engineers, it was decided to install a delay speaker system that could be added to the main system, and at the same time beef up the installed centre cluster in the arena.

Bruce Springsteen seemed genuinely pleased with the way his new show had gone over with the crowd at Stockholm's Globe Arena on June 15th, the opening night of the European leg of his tour.
There were no stories in the Swedish press wondering why Human Touch and Lucky Town slipped out of the Top Ten so quickly; the closest any of the Stockholm papers came to complaining about Springsteen was when Expressen's automotive columnist wrote a piece lamenting the lack of car songs on the new albums.
Further, both Stockholm shows had been sold out for weeks (U2, by contrast, failed to fill the Globe five nights earlier), with the tour-opening show setting an attendance record (15,800) for the building.
