Odense FC have been playing football at the site of today’s stadium since at least 1941, and in the 1990s Odense City Council in collaboration with the club decided to modernise the facilities. In 1997 the main grandstand and the two goal-ends were rebuilt which kick-started the project of rejuvenation, and later between 2004-2005 the remaining grandstand was rebuilt. In June 2005 in order to generate additional income and to help offset some of the costs of redeveloping the stadium the club began to sell the naming rights of the ground. Fiona Bank initially purchased the naming rights on a 9 year deal but after going bankrupt, the rights were then resold to energy company TRE-FOR in 2010. TRE-FOR Park is currently the fifth largest ground stadium in Denmark, but is often placed in the same bracket as Brøndby Stadion and Parken as it satisfies UEFA’s stadium criteria and is fit to host matches of the Champions League. Since the large scale remodelling, the record attendance was set on 11th May 2009 when 15,486 fans saw Odense defeat FC Copenhagen 3-2 in the race for Europe. As for the foreseeable future, it doesn’t appear as if there are any other plans for expansion or renovation, with Odense Stadion leading the way in terms of Danish Stadiums. The Odense Ultras have vocally opposed large-scale conversion to seating behind the goals as they believe this negatively affects the atmosphere, so in the future a relaxation on terrace may be reintroduced to the ground.

DRIVING The stadium’s address for satnav is as follows: Højstrupvej 7B, 5200 Odense, Denmark Car Parks Despite the out of town location, on-site parking at the Idratespark where TREFOR Park sits is limited on matchdays. Make sure that you travel there early in order to suss out the parking situation at he nearby car parks at the University College and Lidl. TRAIN Odense Railway Station is located centrally within the city and unfortunately there aren’t any substations which you can use to get to the stadium on matchday. BUS TREFOR Park is blessed with its own bus stop which is known as “Odense Idrætspark”. Less than a few hundred metres north-west of the ground, the bus stop is served by bus numbers: 11, 31, 31S, 32, 39S and 71. AIRPORTS Odense Airport named after Hans Christian Andersen is located in the village of Beldringe a few kilometres north-west of the city centre, however it is generally only served by domestic flights.
