History and description<\/h3>\n

Brann Stadion was built in 1919. It opened on the 25th of May of that year with a friendly between Brann and the Norway national team.<\/p>\n

The stadium was initially oval-shaped with athletics tracks and terraces on both sides. A new seater main stand was built in the 1930s.\u00a0Its\u00a0highest attendance was recorded in 1961 when a total of 24,800 people attended a Nowegian Cup semi-final between Brann and Frederikstad.<\/p>\n

In 1997, a new seater stand was built at one of the end, but the stadium remained outdated and Brann explored moving to an entirely new stadium.<\/p>\n

In the end, Brann decided to further redevelop Brann Stadion, and between 2005 and 2007 three new stands were built including a new main stand.<\/p>\n
