Brondby Stadium

Brondby Stadium (Danish: Brondby Stadion, pronounced [ˈpʁɶnpy stɛˈtjʌn]) is a football stadium in Brondbyvester, Denmark and the home ground of Danish Superliga club Brondby IF. It is the second-largest stadium in Denmark. Built in 1965 and inaugurated on 31 June 1966 where it had no stands, it saw a major redevelopment in 2000 which increased capacity to 31,500 spectators, of which 19,700 were seated. Continuous adjustments to the spectator facilities have since resulted in the stadium having a total capacity of 29,000 spectators, of which 23,400 are seated. Record attendance dates to 18 June 2003, where a crowd of 31,508 were present in a Copenhagen Derby against F.C. Copenhagen.

When hosting the UEFA competitions Champions League and Europa League, seats are installed on the South End terraces (Danish: Sydsiden) in accordance with UEFA regulations, which reduces the total capacity to 26,000.

The stadium has also hosted the Denmark national football team in five matches. Their first game at Brondby Stadium was a friendly against Portugal on 1 September 2006 which ended in a 4–2 win.
