History

edit

Construction and opening

edit
 
One of themosaic tile installations (June 2022)

Oslo Spektrum was built as part of a large-scale redevelopment of the formerly industrialGrønland/Vaterland area. It was developed and designed by LPO Arkitektkontor AS,[1] and its exterior walls were decorated with amosaic, made out of almost 400,000 unique tiles, containing fragments of prints by the artistRolf Nesch.[2] Since this artist died in 1975, permission was obtained from his living relatives, and the decorating was supervised by painterGuttorm Guttormsgaard and ceramic artist Søren Ubisch.[3] In 2004, Oslo Spektrum was awarded theOslo City Council's award for outstanding architectural achievement.[citation needed]

At the time of opening it was Norway's largest indoor arena, with a seated capacity of 9,700 for concerts (which can be increased to 11,500 when combined with a standing audience) and 6,500 during sporting events. InGreater Oslo bothVallhall Arena andTelenor Arena provide larger venues, although both of these were primarily designed to host football matches.[citation needed]

Oslo Spektrum was conceived as a multi-purpose arena although it was intended primarily for ice hockey and featured built-in ice making facilities. In this capacity it was intended as the home of bothVålerenga Ishockey andFuruset Ishockey, but this did not work out as expected. From 1994 to 1996, it was the home arena of the elite series professional ice hockey team,Spektrum Flyers, but the arena proved too large and too expensive for the club, which was subsequently relocated toBergen. As a result, the arena was left to rely on other means of generating revenue.

Development and renovation

edit

In June 2017, the owner notified Norges Varemesse that they were planning to renovate and expand the arena for more than NOK 1 billion. Among other things, a new congress centre, cultural venue and high-rise office building is expected to be built adjacent to the current venue as an extension with around 3,000 seats and a total of 20,000 additional square metres. The development was scheduled to start in 2020, and the new centre was expected to open in 2023. The goal of the development is to make Oslo better equipped to be Scandinavia's "conference capital". Today's concert hall, with an audience capacity of approximately 9,700 seats, should be refurbished and include 1,700 extra seats. The renovation work was scheduled to start in the summer of 2019,[4] but has since been delayed to June 2025 and is now expected to be completed in 2028. It will be the first high-rise building over 100 meters to be built in Oslo in more than thirty years.[5]
