Outside Scandinavium there is a ramp leading to the main entrance. From there you can choose any entrance to access the arena.

Accessible toilets (RWC) are located between sections B, D, M & U.

If you need a break from the crowd, there is a quiet area where you can relax away from noise, stimuli, and the intensity that can arise during an event like Gothenburg Horse Show. This area is open to all visitors but is specially designed for those who need to retreat for a calm moment.

Gothenburg Horse Show and EuroHorse are two events held concurrently and in cooperation. When passing between Scandinavium and EuroHorse, you need to show your Gothenburg Horse Show ticket.

During Gothenburg Horse Show, many people move around in Scandinavium. At certain times, such as before class starts and during breaks, there can be many visitors on the move. We recommend checking with the usher at your section about possible flows during your visit and arriving in good time.

Sound levels at Scandinavium vary during the event. During rides, the arena is usually completely quiet, while the sound may be louder at other times, such as the start of each class, during clear rounds, show segments, or other program items.

During Gothenburg Horse Show, Scandinavium is brightly lit. This is to ensure that visitors can clearly see what is happening on the competition field, to provide the TV audience with a clear broadcast, and to create a safe environment for horses, riders, and officials.

Some program segments may include light effects combined with music.

If you are sensitive to strong light, we recommend bringing some form of eye protection to enjoy the event as comfortably as possible.

On our streaming platform GHSLive.com, you can enjoy a comprehensive digital experience of Gothenburg Horse Show and much more from the event. Tickets will be available closer to the event date.
