Free Buses and Open Gates: Skagerak Arena Goes All Out for Fans
Skagerak Arena rolled out direct shuttle buses from Gulset and Porsgrunn and offered free entry for Saturday's home clash with Strømsgodset. The fan-focused initiative is part of the club's broader effort to pack the stands during a crucial promotion push.
Buses, Free Tickets and a Big Occasion
Skagerak Arena's Publikumskampen concept was in full swing ahead of Saturday's home match against Strømsgodset, with the club pulling out all the stops to bring supporters through the turnstiles. Direct buses to the ground ran from both Gulset and Porsgrunn, making it easier than ever for fans from across the Telemark region to leave the car at home and head to Skien.
Free entry was also on offer for the fixture, underlining the club's commitment to making matchdays accessible. Under-18s already benefit from free admission to all home league games, but Saturday's initiative extended the welcome further.
A Range of Options for Every Supporter
The matchday offer at Skagerak Arena continues to cater for a wide range of supporters. The family-friendly Supporterfelt area provides a welcoming environment for younger fans, while the premium Bakrommet hospitality package — which includes leather seating and a pre-match meal — is available for those looking for an elevated experience at the 13,500-capacity ground.
Concession pricing remains in place for seniors, students and supporters with disabilities, ensuring the stadium remains a venue for the whole community.
Looking Ahead to a Decisive Autumn
With Odd sitting fourth in the 1. Division, every remaining home fixture at Skagerak Arena takes on added significance in the push for promotion. Four more home matches are still to come — Egersund (20 September), Bryne (11 October), Strømmen (18 October) and Sandnes Ulf (1 November) — and stadium officials are encouraging supporters to secure their seats early.
Tickets for all upcoming fixtures are on sale now through the club's official website.
