Stafettvarvet Arena:Start, finish & exchange

Find your way around the event area! 
The relay baton, race bibs and picnic bag are collected in the entrance park outside Slottsskogsvallen.

The start, relay exchange and finish all take place inside Slottsskogsvallen. At the relay exchange, pass the baton over the exchange barrier to the next runner on your team. The barrier is divided into zones based on race bib numbers to make it easy to find the right place – choose the zone that matches your team’s race bib number.

Information about starting waves can be found further down the page.

Tip! Zoom in on the interactive map for a visual guide to how the relay exchange works.
 

The start:Starting waves

The race starts at 18:00 and uses self-seeding. This means that runners who want to run at a fast pace should position themselves towards the front of the starting field. Volunteers will be on hand to guide runners to the right place.

Runners 1 and 2 (green and purple race bibs) can enter the start area between 17:00 and 18:00.

Runners 3 and 4 (blue and yellow race bibs) can enter the start area at approximately 18:10, once all starting runners have left the start area.

Runner 1: Green race bib
Runner 2: Purple race bib
Runner 3: Blue race bib
Runner 4: Yellow race bib

The coloured race bibs make it easier for both runners and volunteers to make sure everyone is in the right place when entering the start area.

The arena map and information about the relay exchange can be found further up the page.

Stafettvarvet corporate village:Book a tent

In the entrance park outside Slottsskogsvallen, close to the Stafettvarvet start and finish, you can book a tent in one of our corporate villages.

Bring your runners together before, during and after Stafettvarvet, support each other and cheer on your fellow runners from a prime spot. After the race, enjoy a well-deserved after-run together with your team.

Please note that setting up your own tent in the event area is not permitted.
