Tips & Advice
- Book the New Year's Eve dinner by December 15 and pay within 10 days of booking, or your booking may be cancelled.
- Register online before registration closes on December 26 and pay in full within 10 days, because your place isn't confirmed until you've paid.
- From Solna Station, walk through Mall of Scandinavia rather than following Google Maps, which sends you to a different exit and a much longer walk.
- If you're signing up as a couple, register on the same day or the next day, at the same level, with the leader signing up first.
- There are no refunds, so if you can't come, sell your pass to someone who hasn't registered yet and email the organizers their name.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I come to the New Year's Eve party without going to The Snowball?
Yes. You can book the New Year's Eve dinner and dance together, or a dance-only pass. Both need to be booked in advance.
Is the New Year's Eve dance included in my pass?
The Gold, Silver, Bronze and Bronze+ passes include the New Year's Eve dance, so you only add the dinner. You can book the dinner with drinks or without and buy drinks at the Snowball bar. The Crystal pass doesn't include the dance.
How do I reserve a table for the New Year's dinner?
Log in to the table booking with the password you set when you registered for The Snowball. If you've forgotten it, open your booking from your registration email and set a new one. A short video explains how to reserve one or more seats.
Where can I eat during the rest of the event?
The hotel bar serves lunch and dinner, plus simple meals like pizza and salads in the evenings. Mall of Scandinavia is a one-minute walk away and has restaurants, cafés and supermarkets.
How do I get there from Arlanda Airport?
Take the commuter train to Solna Station and use the Strawberry Arena exit. Then walk through Mall of Scandinavia (leave by the O'Learys exit), which takes about 10 minutes. You can also take the Flygbussarna airport bus to Haga Norra and walk 20 to 30 minutes from there.
