It was a very special show Madonna took the time to talk about the horrible attacks in Paris. She asked for a moment of silence. There was not a single sound in the stadium and nobody was taking pictures at that time. Goosebumps and tears. The silence was followed by Like a Prayer, the whole stadium was one. Amazing.

Madonna was very chatty during the show and of course it ended with Holiday and the Swedish flag.

Last minute change: Once you are in inside the first section of the EE queue, you can leave as long as you bring your ticket and have your wristband with a queue number. The next section will open at 4.30.

Next stage in the queue: everyone has been given a red wristband and laminate (no changes from other locations) and the VIP bag and book. Wardrobe opens 16.30 and doors at 18.00 (subject to change).

The VIP books have just arrived. Fans are getting ready for the next stage of queuing.

No extra security measures have been issued, apart from the fact that fans cannot leave the EE queue after picking up their wristbands. Fans are all shocked due to the attacks in Paris yesterday, however there’s a good vibe going on among fans.

The organisation has been done very well around the stadium. Rumor has it that Secret has been rehearsed. Fans cannot really make out what is being soundchecked apart from a loud bass and drums.

Soundcheck is in progress. This is the view on general admission. EE is just around the corner.

There is a safety change: after picking up your wristband, you cannot leave the queue anymore!

Fans will be waiting in a closed area next to the venue. There will be toilets and a wardrobe

The first 50 Early entrance fans queuing in frnt of Stockholm Tele Arena (around 10am local time this morning). Live Nation spoke person at the scene is being very helpful to the fans.

Early Entry is for the entire ground floor including the heart section (unlike some maps floating on the internet, and past experiences in Germany). Pick up of the wristbands  is at 14.30 at this location (nr. 10) as written per e-mail. Early Entry is also here. Entry will not be until 18-19 hrs as Madonna still needs to soundcheck.

A warmer place has been set up outside the arena (behind the black plastic on the photo) to continue the queue after picking up the wristbands. Great service as the temperatures are very low.
