The end of the season across the major European leagues may be closing in but that simply opens the doors to a feast of summer games!
Here at Nickes.Com we can help arrange your trips to some of Europe’s summer leagues, and that includes the biggest of them all, Sweden! As a Swedish-based company we have years of experience in booking fantastic hotel and ticket packages to the top league, the Allsvenskan!
Here’s a selection of ideas for matches in May – we can of course help with other weekends right through the summer!
Capital fun in Stockholm!
Stockholm, the largest city in Scandinavia, is the biggest pull for tourists – eager to enjoy the beautiful old town, Gamla Stan, the vast archipelago of islands, and the many museums and attractions including the 17th Century warship Vasa.
It is home to a clutch of clubs, with AIK Stockholm based at the 50,000 capacity national Strawberry Arena (formerly Friends Arena) in the northern suburb of Solna, and rivals Hammarby and Djurgårdens IF sharing the modern 3Arena south of the centre. You also have Brommapojkarna competing in the Allsvenskan, at the tidy Grimsta IP.

Party in Gothenburg!
If Stockholm is classy, the second city of Gothenburg on the west coast is a city that loves to party: the Avenyn is one long strip of bars and restaurants that is packed during the summer nights.
A total of three clubs share the Gamla Ullevi stadium: one-time European champions IFK Gothenburg, plus GAIS, and also Superetten outfit Örgryte IS, who are the oldest club in the country. Meanwhile just across the river the modern, compact Bravida Arena is the home of recent title winners BK Häcken who currently also share with second tier Utsiktens BK.

See multiple title winners Malmö!
Going further south and Malmö is the major city just across the Öresund strait from Copenhagen, where Sweden and Denmark are linked by the mighty Öresund Bridge. Malmö FF have been the dominant force in Swedish football in recent years, lifting the Allsvenskan six times in the last decade. Their new Eleda Stadion is a cauldron of noise, and it is in sharp contrast to the sweeping curves of their former home, the Malmö Stadion next door.
Several clubs are in the vicinity including Helsingborg and Trelleborgs. It’s best accessed from abroad by Copenhagen Airport.
