history

The Hjørring Stadium was inaugurated in 1930. The Dana Cup , one of the largest youth football tournaments in the world, has been held in Hjørring since 1982 . The Hjørring Stadium is one of the many venues in and around Hjørring where matches are played. In 2003 Fortuna Hjørring reached the final of the UEFA Women's Cup against Umeå IK from Sweden . In the second leg they lost 3-0 in front of their home crowd after losing 4-1 in the first leg.

In September 2011, the council of Hjørring Municipality voted to build a new stadium, which should be completed by spring 2013. The Hjørring Municipality dropped the plans because the construction would have brought them into financial difficulties. On May 29, 2013 the vote to renovate the Hjørring Stadium was due. The proposal was accepted with 20 to 10 votes. Instead of the new building, the stadium, which was over 70 years old at the time, was renovated between 2014 and 2015. Work on the stadium and the new Femhøje Idrætscenter amounted to 35 million DKK (4.7 million € ). The costs were borne by Hjørring Kommune, VUC & HF Nordjylland ( adult education ) and Hjørring Private Realskole (HPR). After Vendsyssel FF was promoted to the super league in 2018 , the capacity of the facility was expanded to 10,000 visitors. This is prescribed by the highest Danish football league. The expanded soccer arena was opened at the beginning of August 2019. During construction, attention was paid to the sustainability of the facility. The buildings meet the requirements for passive houses and it will u. a. used the available daylight . This keeps the operating and maintenance costs low. It is called Danmarks mest bæredygtige stadion ( German  Denmark's most sustainable stadium ). The first event to be held in the stadium was the 2015 Dana Cup. The match between Vendsyssel FF and Aalborg BK on August 6, 2018 attracted 6,415 spectators to a record attendance at the Nord Energi Arena.
