Bodo/Glimt Hosts Tottenham in Champions League Showdown at Aspmyra Stadion
Bodo/Glimt host Tottenham Hotspur at Aspmyra Stadion on Sept 30, 2025, in a Champions League clash that could see Norway's top club make historic progress.
If you’re a football fan in Norway or just curious about cool sports venues, you’ve probably heard of Aspmyra Stadion. It’s the proud home of Bodø Fotball and sits on the edge of the city of Bodø, right by the beautiful Norwegian coastline. The stadium might not be the biggest in Europe, but it packs a lot of character and community spirit into its 8,000‑seat bowl.
What makes Aspmyra special isn’t just the pitch – it’s the way locals treat it like a weekend gathering spot. When the team steps onto the grass, you’ll hear chants, see banners, and feel a buzz that’s hard to find in newer, glass‑filled arenas. Even the weather can add drama; a sudden rainstorm can turn the game into a slick, fast‑paced showdown that keeps fans on the edge of their seats.
Here’s a quick rundown of the basics you might need:
For anyone planning a visit, the stadium’s layout is straightforward. The main entrance leads you straight to the stands, and the ticket office is open an hour before kick‑off. If you’re late, there are a few “standing room only” spots that let you squeeze in without missing the first half.
In the last few months the stadium has been buzzing with action. Bodø Fotball has secured a solid mid‑table position, and the recent derby against Tromsø drew a capacity crowd, showing that regional rivalries still fire up the atmosphere. Aside from league matches, Aspmyra hosts youth tournaments, community charity games, and occasional concerts that bring a different crowd onto the grass.One of the biggest stories right now is the plan to add a modest roof over the north stand. Club officials say it will protect fans from the frequent wind that sweeps off the fjord, and the project is slated to start early next year. The upgrade also includes LED screens for replays, giving smaller fans a taste of the big‑stadium experience.
Fans love to share their match‑day rituals on social media. You’ll often see pictures of hot chocolate from the kiosk, chants posted as short videos, and a growing “Aspmyra selfie” trend where supporters snap a photo with the stadium lights in the background. If you’re planning to join the crowd, bring a warm jacket, a reusable water bottle, and of course, your team scarf.
Getting there is simple: regional buses stop just outside the gates, and there’s a small parking lot for those driving in. Bike lanes connect the stadium to the city centre, so many locals prefer to pedal and avoid traffic. Once you’re inside, the vibe is relaxed but energetic – a perfect mix for watching good football.
Whether you’re a die‑hard Bodø Fotball supporter, a traveler looking for an authentic Norwegian sports experience, or just someone who enjoys a lively match atmosphere, Aspmyra Stadion has something to offer. Keep an eye on the club’s website and social channels for the latest fixtures, ticket deals, and updates on the upcoming renovations. See you at the stadium – the next game could be the one you’ll talk about for weeks.
