Husqvarna Garden, Indoor arena in Jönköping, Sweden
Husqvarna Garden, formerly Kinnarps Arena, is an indoor arena in the Rosenlund district of Jönköping, Sweden. It serves as the home venue for the local ice hockey club HV71 and has a capacity of 6,800 spectators for hockey games.
The arena was built between 1999 and 2000 around the old Rosenlundshallen, which was demolished mid-construction. It opened as Kinnarps Arena in September 2000 and was renamed Husqvarna Garden in 2020.
For locals, the arena is a gathering place on match nights, when fans in HV71 colors fill the stands and the surrounding streets. The name changes over the years reflect the close ties between the club and local industry, with Kinnarps and later Husqvarna lending their names to the building.
The arena is in the Rosenlund area, a short walk from central Jönköping, and is well served by local buses. Visitors should check the event schedule in advance, as the venue is only open to the public during matches and concerts.
The building was erected around the existing Rosenlundshallen, allowing HV71 to keep playing home games during construction. The old hall was then demolished inside the new structure, a rare feat in arena construction.
