Parken Stadium, Football stadium in Østerbro, Copenhagen, Denmark
Parken Stadium is a football ground in the Østerbro district of Copenhagen, Denmark, featuring four covered stands and space for more than 38,000 spectators. The facility includes a retractable roof and can accommodate up to 55,000 attendees during concerts.
The ground opened in September 1992 on the site of the former Idrætsparken, with Denmark facing Germany in the first international fixture. It replaced an older sports ground and quickly became the main venue for football in the country.
The venue takes its name from the surrounding park and serves as home to Danish football in the capital. Matches featuring F.C. København regularly draw supporters from across the country who come to cheer their team.
The ground is accessible by public transport, with several bus routes and Østerport Station within walking distance of the main entrance. Visitors should allow extra time for arrival during major events, as surrounding streets tend to get busier.
A three-Michelin-star restaurant called Geranium occupies the eighth floor and offers fine dining during matches and special occasions. This rare setting combines top-level sport with international culinary art under one roof.
