Parken

Parken in Copenhagen is the national stadium of Denmark and the home of FC Copenhagen, a ground whose atmosphere reflects one of Europe's most passionate football cultures. The stadium sits in the Østerbro district with a design that keeps fans close to the pitch, and when Denmark hosts World Cup or Euro qualifiers, the crowd creates a wall of red and white noise. FC Copenhagen's European nights add another layer of history to a venue that has hosted Champions League and Europa League football.

Parken opened in 1992 on the site of the older Idrætspark stadium, giving Denmark a modern national stadium for the Euro 92 era — which Denmark famously won. It has hosted Denmark's World Cup and Euro qualifying campaigns, Europa League finals, and FC Copenhagen's domestic and European campaigns. The stadium's name simply means 'the park' in Danish, reflecting its neighborhood setting. It remains one of Scandinavia's most important football venues.
