Malmö Live

Malmö Live, Entertainment centre in Universitetsholmen, Malmö, Sweden

Malmö Live is an event venue on the artificial island of Universitetsholmen, just north of the canal in Malmö. The complex comprises a concert hall for up to 1,600 people, a convention centre, a hotel, and residential and office buildings. Its tallest tower rises 85 metres over 25 floors. The facades are clad in red, yellow and white ceramic tiles, and the concert hall interior is modelled on the Golden Hall of the Vienna Musikverein.

Malmö Live occupies the Torsken block on Universitetsholmen, land reclaimed in the 19th century that once held the Neptuni park, the old Fish harbour and buildings such as the 1850s Benmöllan. A 2008 land-allocation competition led the City of Malmö to plan a new district, and construction began in 2012. The complex, developed by Skanska with Schmidt Hammer Lassen as architects, was formally inaugurated on 4 June 2015 at an estimated cost of SEK 1.4 billion.

The site is nicknamed "Malmhattan" for its cluster of tall buildings. Public art was chosen through a 2014 competition: Maha Mustafa's sculpture Passage stands at Dag Hammarskjölds torg, Haegue Yang's three installations Dispersed three in live conjunction sit on facades near the entrances, and Eva Hild's Rubato stands outside the south entrance. A promenade with seating steps runs along the shore.

Malmö Live occupies the Torsken block on Universitetsholmen, just north of the canal and a short walk from Malmö Central Station and the City Tunnel. The site is crossed by Dag Hammarskjölds torg, where Maha Mustafa's sculpture Passage stands, and a footbridge over the West Harbour Canal carries Kim Hedås's sound installation. A promenade with seating steps runs along the shore past Eva Hild's sculpture Rubato outside the south entrance.

The site was once the Torsken block, home to the old Fish Harbor and the 1850s Benmöllan building. A 2008 land-allocation competition led the City of Malmö to create a new district focused on music and congress. The developer was Skanska and the architect Schmidt Hammer Lassen; the complex cost about SEK 1.4 billion.
