Hyllie (Swedish pronunciation: [ˈhʏ̂lːɪɛ])[1] is an area and former city district (Swedish: stadsdel) in the central of Malmö Municipality, Sweden. On 1 July 2013, it was merged with Limhamn-Bunkeflo, forming Väster.[2]
In 2012, Hyllie had a population of 32,998 of the municipality's 307,758.[3] The area was 901 hectares.[4]
Though the name of the district has changed the area is still referred to as Hyllie. It is one of Sweden's most dynamic districts thanks to its location halfway between Malmö Central and Copenhagen Airport. The Eurovision Song Contest was staged in the Malmö Arena in 2013 and in 2024 as well. It is the second-largest arena in Sweden.[5]
