Football matches in Kristiansand

Start is the club this page keeps for the catalog string Kristiansand. The Norwegian matchday page and the away page call the ground Sparebanken Norge Arena Kristiansand and give the address Stadionveien 21, 4632 Kristiansand. The English arena page carries the same house number, but its directions paragraph still says Sparebanken Sør Arena and places the ground about 2.5 kilometres east of the centre. The bus stop it calls the best alternative is Østre ringvei/Idunveien, lines 01, 13 and 19. It says the airport shuttle stops at the bus station downtown. The matchday page allows 10 minutes by bus from Kristiansand Rutebilstasjon, about 20 minutes from Flekkerøya and 15 minutes from Søm, and sends the actual connection to the Agder kollektivtrafikk planner on akt.no. Macron's supporter hut on Karstens plass, just outside the stadium, opens about two hours before kickoff. Londsia Pøbb is on the lower level of the Frydenbø stand on the north side, opens three hours before kickoff and has an age limit of 18. After the match, cars can go from Nedre Kongsgård Allè via Ringknuten to Narvika and out onto the E18. That diversion is only for motor vehicles, not for cyclists and people on foot. Away supporters use entrance 3 and buy section I1. The ticket window at entrance 7 opens one hour before kickoff. Food and drink brought from outside are not allowed, and the arena does not take cash at a kiosk or when a ticket is bought.

Kristiansand at a glance

This page contains only catalog entries whose city string is exactly Kristiansand. An older arena name on a club page does not change that string.

Plan a visit in the city

Settle the club Start and the date first, then Sparebanken Norge Arena Kristiansand at Stadionveien 21. The English page still says Sparebanken Sør Arena at that same address. For the bus, use the planner on akt.no, which the matchday page names, plus the stop Østre ringvei/Idunveien with lines 01, 13 and 19 on the English page. From the Rutebilstasjon the matchday page allows 10 minutes. Anyone arriving earlier finds the supporter hut on Karstens plass about two hours before kickoff and Londsia Pøbb at the Frydenbø stand three hours before. Away supporters go to entrance 3 and section I1. The window at entrance 7 opens one hour before kickoff. After the match, cars can use Nedre Kongsgård Allè, Ringknuten and Narvika to reach the E18. A catalog row does not say which extra door is open on the day.

What to distinguish in this travel scope

Stadionveien 21 and two arena names

Start's matchday page and away page write Sparebanken Norge Arena Kristiansand and the address Stadionveien 21, 4632 Kristiansand. The English page repeats Stadionveien 21, 4632 Kristiansand, but its directions paragraph says Sparebanken Sør Arena and places the ground about 2.5 kilometres east of the centre. The stop it calls the best bus choice is Østre ringvei/Idunveien, lines 01, 13 and 19. It ends the airport shuttle at the bus station downtown. That is one address with two names on the club pages, not two stadiums.

Rutebilstasjon, Karstens plass and Frydenbø

The matchday page recommends the bus and mentions a stop near the arena without giving that stop its own name on this page. The ride takes 10 minutes from Kristiansand Rutebilstasjon, about 20 minutes from Flekkerøya and 15 minutes from Søm. The actual line is meant to be checked in the planner on akt.no. The supporter hut on Karstens plass opens about two hours before kickoff. Londsia Pøbb sits on the lower level of the Frydenbø stand, north side, opens three hours before kickoff and admits people only from the age of 18. After the match, cars go from Nedre Kongsgård Allè via Ringknuten to Narvika and onto the E18. Cyclists and people on foot are excluded from that diversion.

Entrance 3 and section I1

The away page sends away supporters to entrance 3 at Sparebanken Norge Arena Kristiansand. The section to buy is I1, with a free choice of seat only inside that section. The ticket window at entrance 7 opens on match day one hour before kickoff. The away club keeps control of the away tickets, and the contact runs through one's own club. Supporter buses may drop and collect passengers at the away door. During the match there is no access to the buses. On other sections, items of the away club are not allowed. The arena does not take cash, and food or drink brought in stays outside.
