About Malmö stadion#
Malmö stadion is a sports stadium in Malmö, Skåne County, Sweden, constructed for the 1958 FIFA World Cup. It was designed to host football and athletics events and remains a multiuse municipal stadium.
The venue includes a running track and has been used for athletics, football and occasional concerts and events rather than as the permanent home for top-tier club football. Its layout and facilities reflect mid-20th century stadium design.
