Aker Stadium Unites Community with Memorial Match
Aker Stadium opened its gates for a Minnekamp — a memorial match — on Monday 13 July 2026, underlining the ground's importance as a community hub in Molde. The event took place just days before the stadium's next big Eliteserien occasion, emphasising how the fjordside arena serves the city well beyond the football calendar.
A Memorial Match at the Heart of the Community
Aker Stadium stepped beyond its role as a football venue on Monday 13 July 2026, hosting a Minnekamp — a memorial match — with kick-off at 17:00. The event, listed on the official Molde FK ticketing platform, brought the club and the wider Molde community together at their beloved fjordside home.
The Minnekamp is a reminder that Aker Stadium means far more to the region than matchday results. Since opening in April 1998, the ground has served as a gathering point for the city of Molde across football, concerts and significant community occasions alike.
More Than Just a Football Ground
With a capacity of 11,249, Aker Stadium is owned and operated by Molde FK, which oversees both the maintenance and ongoing development of the facility. Its artificial turf, in place since 2014, allows the venue to be used year-round and across a wide range of events.
The stadium's role as a community hub is reflected in its busy calendar. Alongside Eliteserien and Toppserien fixtures, the ground regularly hosts cultural events that draw supporters and residents together.
Eyes Now Turn to the Season Run-In
With the Minnekamp complete and the home clash against Brann arriving just days later on 18 July, Aker Stadium moves seamlessly back into competitive football mode. The Eliteserien fixture list at the ground stretches all the way to late November, with high-profile home games against Bodø/Glimt and Viking still to come.
Supporters are encouraged to check the official Molde FK ticketing platform for upcoming availability and further event details as the club heads into a crucial phase of the 2026 season.
