The Aalborg Portland Park (originally: Aalborg Parking ) is a football stadium in the Danish city of Aalborg . It is the home ground of the first division club Aalborg BK and offers 13,800 seats. 10,500 seats are available for international games.

history

The stadium was inaugurated in 1920 and expanded in 1927 with a grandstand with 3,000 seats. In June 1960 a fire destroyed the audience area. The newly built facility was opened in 1962 with a floodlit friendly game in front of 14,000 visitors . In the winter of 1994/95 the stands behind the gate were rebuilt and expanded. The standing rank in the north received seats. Aalborg BK's venue was renovated in the early 2000s. The north stand became two-story and further work took place on the other stands. The opening of the plant was celebrated in spring 2002. The floodlight system now offers 1,400 lux illuminance .

The Danish energy supply company Energi Nord acquired the name of the stadium between autumn 2007 and November 20, 2011 . As a result, the income per season was € 100,000. In March 2012 the stadium received a new sponsor name. Since the league game against Sønderjysk Elitesport on March 24, 2012, the venue has been named Nordjyske Arena after the Nordjyske media group. The contract ran until December 31, 2014. In March 2017, the cement manufacturing company Aalborg Portland gave the plant its name. The contract is initially valid until 2020.

In 1991 the German women's national soccer team won their second European championship title at the European soccer championship in the stadium of Aalborg with a 3-1 win against the Norwegians . In addition to the three stadiums in Aarhus, Herning and Viborg, the arena in Aalborg was the venue for the 2011 European U-21 football championship .
