Aker Stadion's Busiest Month: Tromsø and LSK Kvinner in August
Aker Stadion is in the thick of its most packed home stretch of the 2026 season. An Eliteserien clash with Tromsø on 16 August is followed just six days later by a Toppserien fixture when Molde W host LSK Kvinner W, giving supporters back-to-back weekends of top-flight football by the fjord.
A Month Like No Other at the Fjordside Arena
August 2026 has shaped up to be the busiest home month Aker Stadion has seen all season. The twin bill of a men's Eliteserien encounter and a women's Toppserien fixture on back-to-back weekends has given supporters in Molde a rare run of top-flight football right on their doorstep.
The month opened on 2 August when Molde FK drew 3–3 with Sarpsborg 08 FF — a high-scoring curtain-raiser that set the tone for what was to follow.
Tromsø Arrive for a Sunday Showdown
The standout fixture of the month came on Sunday 16 August, when Molde FK welcomed Tromsø IL to Aker Stadion for a Round 17 Eliteserien clash, with kick-off at 17:00. The match represented an important points opportunity for Molde, who entered the game placed fifth in the table.
Fans were reminded of the ground's usual matchday protocols: the away end is restricted to the designated section on the Istad tribune, and bottles and away colours are not permitted in other areas of the 11,249-capacity ground.
Women's Football Takes Centre Stage on 22 August
Just six days after the Tromsø fixture, attention at Aker Stadion turns to the women's game. Molde W host LSK Kvinner W in Round 13 of the 2026 Toppserien on Saturday 22 August, with kick-off at 12:00.
The fixture is part of a season-long arrangement that has seen Aker Stadion serve as Molde W's permanent Toppserien home throughout 2026 — a commitment that underlines the club's investment in the women's game and positions the fjordside arena as a genuine dual-purpose venue.
Facilities Ready for the Crowds
With a capacity of 11,249, along with a restaurant, a café, ten kiosks and eight commentary boxes, Aker Stadion is well equipped to cater for the varied audiences each fixture attracts. Tickets for both remaining August home matches are on sale now through the official Molde FK ticketing platform.
