The Match That Oslo Has Been Waiting For
With the Eliteserien's second half barely a week old, attention at Intility Arena is already turning to Saturday, 8 August, when Bodø/Glimt come to Oslo. Kick-off is scheduled for 14:00, and the fixture is shaping up to be one of the most eagerly anticipated home matches of the entire 2026 season.
Bodø/Glimt have been among the top title challengers in Norwegian football, making their visit to the 16,556-capacity stadium a genuine must-watch for any Eliteserien fan.

Tickets are now on sale through Vålerenga's official ticketing partner. The ground is divided into clearly defined sections: the Hovedtribunen and Intility-tribunen (stands 101–108) are open to Vålerenga supporters and neutrals, the Oslo Taxi-tribunen (stands 301–308) and Østblokka (stands 401–406) are exclusively for home supporters, and visiting Bodø/Glimt fans are directed to the designated away end in stands 201/202.

Why This Fixture Matters
With Molde, Fredrikstad, Brann and Tromsø all still to visit Intility Arena before the season is out, the second half of 2026 is stacked with big occasions. But the Bodø/Glimt clash stands apart. It is the kind of fixture that fills a 16,000-seat stadium and defines a club's season — and on current form, both sides will have plenty to play for when they walk out on Oslo's freshly laid surface on 8 August.
