About this venue
Granasen Arena is not just a ski venue, but a landmark Nordic sports complex that blends sporting prestige with a crisp, mountain-like atmosphere. The layout is built around large outdoor competition areas, so even on major event days it feels like a true arena—spacious, easy to read, and focused on the action on snow. It naturally brings together ski jumping, Nordic skiing, and winter events that draw visitors throughout the season.
The on-site experience is practical and comfortable: clear spectator zones, intuitive circulation, and amenities that make spending hours outdoors much easier. Visitors often appreciate the sense of closeness to the course, strong sightlines, and the “sports park” energy that works equally well for headline competitions and more relaxed visits. Add refreshment options and room to take a break, and Granasen Arena feels like a place worth returning to.
The venue is located at 7026 Trondheim, Trondheim, Norway. The easiest approach is to head directly for the Granåsen sports area, where access routes and parking are typically signposted close to the entrance, while public transport stops are found along the complex.

About the city
Trondheim, the lively capital of the Trøndelag region, blends Scandinavian charm with the energy of major events. The city is known for a strong cultural scene and a true sporting spirit, offering visitors an excellent selection of concerts, matches, and all kinds of happenings throughout the year. The atmosphere is relaxed yet well organized, with everything designed so your event experience runs smoothly, without stress, and with plenty of enjoyment.
Getting around the city is easy with AtB, which runs the bus network and the tram, making it simple and intuitive to reach key areas and larger venues. If you arrive by train, the main hub is Trondheim sentralstasjon (Trondheim S), located close to the city center and well connected to the rest of Trondheim. For air travel, you’ll use Trondheim lufthavn Værnes (TRD), and reaching the city from the airport is straightforward by road and public transport, making Trondheim practical for both quick trips and longer stays.
Before or after the event, Trondheim rewards you with a walk along the Nidelva river and through the colorful Bakklandet district, where cafés and small shops are perfect for a break. The view from Gamle Bybro is one of those classic postcard moments, and just a few minutes away you’ll find Nidarosdomen, a monumental cathedral and an important city symbol. If you want a bit more panorama, the climb up to Kristiansten festning is often the perfect way to end a day in a city that works equally well as a destination and as a stage.
