With a seating capacity of 3,600 and a standing capacity of up to 4,600 people, the arena will also host concerts, conferences and other culture events.

When planning work began in June, Tórshavn mayor Heðin Mortensen said:

“We are confident that this is a financially viable project which forms a crucial part of the expansion of the Hoyvík district and the city as a whole, and it’s something that will benefit everyone in the Faroe Islands.”
