Buy Lillestrøm tickets for the 2026/27 Season and join the Canaries at Åråsen Stadion, the compact, all-seated home of one of Norway's traditional football powers, a short train ride from central Oslo. Lillestrøm arrive at this campaign as Norwegian Cup holders, back in the Eliteserien after an unbeaten promotion season and playing in the UEFA Europa League league phase for the first time.
Thousands trust 1BoxOffice
The Norwegian season follows the calendar year, so the 2026/27 football year spans the closing weeks of the 2026 Eliteserien, a run of European nights through the autumn and winter and the 2027 league campaign that starts in the spring. This guide covers what you will pay, where to sit, how the Norwegian ticketing system works, away travel, the club's history and how to buy with confidence.
Lillestrøm sell single match tickets and season tickets through the club's own online ticket shop, with season ticket holders receiving priority and discounted access to European fixtures. For many league games that system leaves seats on general sale until close to kick-off. For the visit of Vålerenga or Rosenborg, a cup run or a Europa League night, the ground can sell out well in advance and the club shop simply shows the match as sold out.
A secondary marketplace adds options at exactly those moments. Listings appear when supporters cannot attend, when groups change their plans or when visitors decide to sell, and you can compare sections and delivery methods side by side. Rather than hoping for a late release, you choose the seat that suits your budget and your trip.
Language and logistics can also get in the way. The club's ticket shop runs on TicketCo and has an English version, but release dates, priority windows and any supporter profile requirements are announced mainly in Norwegian, and the most popular matches can sell out before many overseas fans notice the sale has opened.
Flexibility matters most to visitors from abroad. Eliteserien kick-off times can move for television, and European fixtures are confirmed only a few weeks ahead. Buying through a marketplace lets you secure seats once your travel is fixed, with the listing notes setting out the section, the delivery method and anything else you need to know before matchday.
1BoxOffice has operated as a ticket marketplace since 2006 and serves football supporters across the UK, Europe and the Middle East. Every listing shows the section, the price and the delivery method before you commit, along with any notes from the seller about entry.
The 150% money-back guarantee is the safety net. If the original tickets are not received and no suitable alternative is offered, the buyer is eligible for a full refund, and a credit voucher worth 50% of the original order value (excluding fees and taxes, capped at £125) may also be issued. What you get:
Åråsen holds between 10,000 and 12,000 depending on configuration, small by the standards of European football and modest even within Norway. With a loyal season ticket base and a supporters' club that counts thousands of members, the pool of single match seats for the big occasions is limited.
Demand is not spread evenly across the year. These are the factors that drive it:
The league calendar limits supply too. The Eliteserien has 16 clubs and 30 rounds, so Lillestrøm play 15 home league matches a season, and only a handful of them carry real derby or title weight. Add cup ties and European nights and the number of headline home games is still small, which concentrates demand on a few dates. European fixtures add to the pressure because they are scheduled in autumn and winter, when the league season is ending or has finished, giving supporters few other chances to see the team at home.
Put together, those factors mean the window for the headline fixtures is short. If a particular match is on your list, comparing listings early gives you the widest choice of sections and prices.
Lillestrøm set prices in Norwegian kroner by section, with the central long-side seats at the top of the scale and the short sides and supporters' section lower. Season ticket prices give a clear guide to the structure: for 2026 an adult season ticket in the central yellow section costs 3,400 kr, about £270, while a short-side adult season ticket costs 1,600 kr, about £127. Single match prices follow the same pattern, with reduced rates for children, young people, students and seniors.
Resale prices follow the opponent and the occasion more than anything else. A routine league match in May draws far less demand than a derby against Vålerenga or a Europa League night under the floodlights. The section, the number of seats together and how close to kick-off you buy all shift the figure, as does whether the match has already sold out through the club.
The gap between face value and resale is widest for European fixtures. With season ticket holders getting priority and discounts for those games, the general allocation is thin and prices reflect that scarcity. For standard league games the gap is far smaller and better-value seats are easier to find.
The table below shows typical resale ranges for the 2026/27 football year in pounds sterling. Use it as a guide to what to expect rather than a fixed quote.
| Type of Ticket | Typical Price Range (GBP) |
|---|---|
| Eliteserien (standard fixtures) | £35 – £80 |
| Eliteserien (high-demand fixtures) | £50 – £120+ |
| Norwegian Cup | £25 – £70 |
| UEFA Europa League (home) | £60 – £180+ |
| Hospitality / VIP | £150 – £400+ |
Prices reflect typical resale ranges and may change as demand and availability shift.
Yes. Lillestrøm do not require club membership for general admission, and single match tickets for most league games go on general sale through the club's ticket shop. Children aged six to 12, young people aged 13 to 17, students and seniors pay reduced prices with proof of eligibility at the gate, and children under six can attend free on the lap of a paying adult.
Priority still shapes who gets the scarce seats. Season ticket holders renew first, receive free entry to early cup rounds at Åråsen, discounted entry to later rounds and priority for a cup final involving the club, and get first access and discounts for European fixtures. When a big match comes around, much of the ground is already allocated before general sale opens, and the most popular games can sell out well before matchday.
A marketplace removes the need to track release dates in Norwegian time or set up a local account. Listings on 1BoxOffice come from verified sellers and show the section, the delivery method and any conditions before you buy. Read those notes carefully, particularly for European fixtures, where entry arrangements can differ from league matches. Reduced-price categories for children, students and seniors require proof of eligibility at the gate, so make sure the ticket type you buy matches the person attending.
In Norway the season ticket is called a sesongkort, and at Lillestrøm it covers every home league match of the calendar-year season. Holders from the previous year have a reservation window to keep their seats before unclaimed places are released, and the club adds benefits on top: free entry to early Norwegian Cup rounds at Åråsen, discounts for later rounds, priority for European tickets and friends' tickets at a nominal price for selected league games. A separate year-round subscription renews automatically for supporters who want continuous access.
A sesongkort makes little sense for a visitor who can attend only once or twice, but it explains why single match availability shrinks for the big occasions. The more seats sold as season tickets, the fewer reach general sale. The 2026 adult prices published by the club are set out below, with sterling conversions at current rates. Reduced categories cost less in every section, and child season tickets start at 550 kr, about £44, which keeps family attendance strong.
| Section | Adult Price 2026 | Approx. GBP | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Platinum | 5,300 kr | About £421 | Top price category |
| Yellow sections (central long side) | 3,400 kr | About £270 | Numbered seats near the halfway line |
| Black sections | 2,700 kr | About £215 | Short sides and the outer parts of the long sides |
| KFL category | 2,200 kr | About £175 | Mid-priced category below the black sections |
| Short side | 1,600 kr | About £127 | Lowest adult season ticket; child prices from 550 kr |
Åråsen is a four-sided, single-tier, all-seated ground with stands close to the pitch, so sightlines are good from almost every section. The West Stand is the main stand, the East Stand holds both the home singing section and the away supporters and the South Stand is the family area.
| Stand / Area | Best For | Price Bracket | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sections A and B (Kanarifeltet) | Atmosphere | Lower | The supporters' section where Kanarifansen stand and sing |
| Yellow sections | Best central view | Highest general | Numbered seats in the middle of the long side |
| Black sections | All-round value | Mid | Numbered and unnumbered seats on the short sides and outer long sides |
| South Stand family area | Families | Lower to mid | Where the club's children's and youth groups sit |
| Section J | Neutral fans | Mid | A designated neutral section |
| Sections U, V and W | Visiting supporters | Set by allocation | The guest section in the northern part of the East Stand |
Because Åråsen is small and every stand sits close to the pitch, there are few poor seats in the ground. For a first visit the yellow sections give the clearest view of the game, while the neutral Section J suits visitors who want to watch without picking a side. Families usually prefer the South Stand, where the club's youth groups sit together.
Lillestrøm's travelling support is loud and well organised, with Kanarifansen arranging trips to most away fixtures. Norway is a long country, so away days range from a short hop into Oslo for the Vålerenga derby to flights north for Bodø/Glimt or Tromsø.
| Topic | What to Know |
|---|---|
| Domestic away allocation | The host club controls the guest section and sells it through its own ticket channel; Lillestrøm supporters buy where the home club directs |
| Typical away section | A segregated block in one stand, usually behind a goal or in a corner, with its own entrance |
| Access requirements | Most Eliteserien clubs issue digital tickets through their own shop; some ask buyers to create a supporter profile |
| European away trips | Allocations are set by the host club and UEFA rules; some hosts issue named tickets and ask for ID |
| Visiting fans at Åråsen | Away supporters use sections U, V and W. Tickets for that area are distributed by the visiting club |
The Vålerenga derby is the easiest away day of all, a short train ride into Oslo, and Lillestrøm supporters usually travel in large numbers and in good voice. Trips to Rosenborg in Trondheim, Brann in Bergen or Viking in Stavanger mean long journeys by train or plane, and the travelling support for those games is smaller but no less committed.
For the longest trips, travel is part of the planning. Flights to northern Norway book up early when a big match is scheduled, and rail connections from Lillestrøm to Oslo Airport, Gardermoen make it easy for supporters to fly out on matchday morning.
Different supporters want different things from an afternoon or evening at Åråsen, and the small size of the ground means the choice of section shapes the experience more than at many larger stadiums. Use this table to point your search at the right part of the ground.
| Priority | Best Option | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Best atmosphere | Sections A and B | Kanarifansen lead the singing for the full ninety minutes |
| Best view | Yellow sections on the long side | A central, close angle on the whole pitch |
| Family-friendly | South Stand family area | A calmer area designed around children and youth groups |
| Premium experience | West Stand club seating and boxes | Lounge access and catering in the main stand |
| Lower-priced option | Short-side black sections | The lowest adult prices in the ground with a clear view |
Lillestrøm have played at Åråsen since 7 July 1951, when the ground opened with a friendly against Sarpsborg. For decades it was a classic Norwegian ground of terraces and an open pitch, growing piece by piece as the club rose. A grandstand that burned down in 1967 was rebuilt the following year, an east stand was added in 1974 and a new 3,700-seat East Stand opened in 1978, which remains the oldest part of the stadium today.
The modern Åråsen took shape in a redevelopment between 1999 and 2002. The West Stand, now the main stand, opened before the 2000 season and the South Stand before 2002, turning Åråsen into a compact, four-sided, all-seated ground. The pitch was relaid in 2000 with undersoil heating and automatic irrigation, and Åråsen has kept natural grass while many Norwegian clubs have switched to artificial surfaces. That grass is one reason the Norway national team has trained there since 2012.
The stadium's position close to Kjeller airfield shaped one of its most distinctive features. Height limits prevented fixed floodlight masts for years, so in January 2002 the club installed retractable floodlights that rise for evening matches and drop when not needed. It is an unusual solution that visitors often notice before kick-off.
The record attendance of 13,652 was set against Vålerenga on 16 May 2002, and the club's highest league average came in 2007 at 9,018. Åråsen has hosted European Cup, UEFA Cup and Conference League nights for Lillestrøm, the 2002 UEFA European Under-19 Championship and games at the 1997 Women's European Championship. In December 2023 the club announced plans for a full rebuild of the South Stand. Day-to-day, the first team trains at the nearby Lillestrøm stadion and in the indoor LSK-Hallen, which lets the club protect the Åråsen grass for matchdays through the long Norwegian winter.
Getting there is straightforward. Lillestrøm station sits on the main line between Oslo and the airport, with express trains taking around 10 to 12 minutes from Oslo Central and around 12 to 15 minutes from Oslo Airport, Gardermoen. From the station the walk to Åråsen takes 10 to 15 minutes through the town centre, and local buses stop a short walk from the ground. Public transport tickets in the area are bought through the Ruter app.
The atmosphere comes above all from Kanarifansen, the supporters' club founded on 3 December 1992. With more than 5,000 members it is one of the largest supporter organisations in Norway, and it publishes its own magazines and runs its own clothing range. On matchdays its members fill sections A and B in the East Stand with flags, banners and songs. Their tifo displays for derbies and European nights are among the most photographed in Norwegian football.
Lillestrøm itself is a compact town on the edge of Oslo, and matchday life centres on the streets between the station and the stadium. Supporters gather in the town's cafés and bars before walking up together, and the yellow and black of the home side fills the route on big match days. Allow time to soak it up, because the short walk is part of the experience. After the final whistle the same route back to the station fills quickly, so supporters catching a train to Oslo or the airport often wait a few minutes for the crowd to thin.
Hospitality at Åråsen is concentrated in the upper section of the West Stand, which houses executive boxes and club seating for around 700 guests. It suits clients, celebrations and visiting groups who want food, drink and comfort around the match, and for European nights or the Vålerenga derby it is often one of the more dependable ways to secure well-placed seats.
Hospitality guests usually arrive well before kick-off to use the lounges. Packages sold for European ties are limited in number and often go to the club's business partners first, so the choice narrows quickly once a fixture date is confirmed. Check what each listing includes before you compare prices. For supporters who want comfort across a whole season, the club's Platinum season ticket sits at the top of its pricing at 5,300 kr for 2026, about £421.
| Package | What It Includes | Typical Price Range |
|---|---|---|
| Club seat | Padded seat in the West Stand with lounge access and catering | Entry level of the hospitality range; higher for European fixtures |
| Executive box | Private box for a group with a direct view of the pitch | Upper end of the range; priced per box or per guest |
| Platinum season seat | The top season ticket category for every home league match | 5,300 kr for 2026; extras vary |
| Corporate events | Pre-match dining for groups with stand access | Quoted per event and group size |

Not every home game at Åråsen sells at the same speed. These are the fixture types that tend to move fastest, so plan ahead if one of them is on your list.
| Fixture Type | Why It Moves Fast |
|---|---|
| Europa League nights | The club's first league phase campaign, with season ticket holders given priority and few seats left for general sale |
| Lillestrøm vs Vålerenga | The fiercest rivalry in the Oslo region and the fixture behind the stadium's attendance record |
| Lillestrøm vs Rosenborg | A long-running rivalry with Norway's most successful club and a large travelling following |
| Lillestrøm vs Bodø/Glimt and Brann | Games against the leading sides that decide titles and European places |
| Norwegian Cup ties | As holders, every cup tie at home carries the weight of defending the trophy |
If your heart is set on a derby or a European night, the most practical approach is to settle your travel dates first and then compare listings as soon as they appear. For a standard league weekend there is usually more time and a wider choice of sections.
Delivery depends on the seller and the fixture. The method is shown on every listing before you buy, along with the expected timing, so you know exactly what to look out for in the days before the match.
Always check the listing notes for the delivery method and expected timing, especially for European fixtures where tickets may be released close to the match.
Åråsen is small enough that queues rarely last long on a normal league day, but derbies and European nights bring larger crowds and more thorough checks. Aim to arrive around an hour before kick-off so you can find your entrance, grab something to eat and be in your seat as Kanarifansen begin their build-up. On European nights, allow extra time for the walk from the station as the town fills up, and expect the evening kick-offs of autumn and winter to be cold, so dress for the weather.
Have your ticket ready on a fully charged phone or as a clean printout. Reduced-price tickets for children, students and seniors require proof of eligibility at the gate, so bring a student card or ID if your ticket is in one of those categories. For European fixtures, carry photo ID such as a passport or national identity card in case tickets are checked against names.
Travel light. Searches take place at the entrances and large bags or backpacks can slow your entry or be refused, so check the club's matchday information for the current rules before you travel. Pyrotechnics, glass and weapons are prohibited, and visiting club colours belong in the guest sections. European fixtures can carry stricter rules set by UEFA, so check before each match.

Lillestrøm's story is one of a small town club that became a national force, held its place in the top flight longer than anyone in Norwegian history and then rebuilt itself from the second tier. The club still runs other sports, including speed skating, but football has always been at its heart.
The early decades turned a merger of two local clubs into the leading side in Romerike, the district north-east of Oslo. Alf Martinsen, who later coached the club, gave Lillestrøm its first national profile, and the opening of Åråsen in 1951 gave it a home to grow into. The club lost the 1953 final 2–1 to Viking, the 1955 final 5–0 to Skeid and the 1958 final 1–0 to Skeid again. Three cup finals in the 1950s ended in defeat, but they showed the club could compete with Norway's leading sides.
The 1958/59 title was followed by a fall that took Lillestrøm down to the third tier, which makes what came next all the more remarkable. Built around Tom Lund, the forward who never left despite interest from some of Europe's biggest clubs, the side climbed back, won the league in 1976 and completed the club's only top-flight double a year later. Promotion in 1974 began a run of 45 consecutive seasons in the Eliteserien, a Norwegian record. Lund's standing went well beyond the club: he won 47 caps for Norway and in 1981 became the first footballer named Norwegian Sportsperson of the Year.
Lillestrøm were a fixture near the top of the table through the 1980s and 1990s, with Tom Lund returning as coach to win the 1986 title and David Hay leading the side to the 1989 championship, the club's most recent. European campaigns brought ties against Bordeaux, Torino and Deportivo Alavés, and the club reached the final of the Nordic Royal League in 2006. The 2000s brought two more cup finals at Ullevaal Stadion, a 4–2 defeat by Molde in 2005 in front of 25,000 and a 2–0 win over Haugesund in 2007. The later years were harder, with financial pressures forcing the club to sell or release 11 players in 2009 and to part with key forwards such as Anthony Ujah in 2011, and the 2017 cup win came in a season of struggle in the league before relegation followed in 2019.
The first spell back in the top flight went well. Promotion came at the first attempt in 2020, a season shaped by the pandemic in which the Norwegian Cup was cancelled, and fourth-place finishes in 2021 and 2022 brought European football back to Åråsen, with SJK beaten before Royal Antwerp ended the run. The slide that followed was quick: Geir Bakke left in July 2023, and in 2024 Andreas Georgson, caretaker David Nielsen and Dag-Eilev Fagermo all took charge before relegation was confirmed.
The 2025 season will be remembered as one of the most remarkable in Norwegian football. Under Ødegaard, Lillestrøm won 25 and drew five of their 30 league matches, scoring 87 goals and conceding 18, then beat Sarpsborg 08 3–1 in the cup final at Ullevaal Stadion in front of 23,202 to finish the year unbeaten in every domestic competition. The cup win sent them straight into the Europa League play-off round, where an extra-time winner at Åråsen against Egnatia completed a 2–1 aggregate victory and took the club into the league phase.
Lillestrøm have produced around 40 Norway internationals, including goalkeeper Frode Grodås, striker Jan Åge Fjørtoft and defender Gunnar Halle, who went on to careers in England. A handful of names stand above the rest in the club's history.
| Legend | Role | Contribution | Milestones |
|---|---|---|---|
| Tom Lund | Forward and coach | Spent his entire playing career at Lillestrøm despite offers from abroad and led the club to its 1976 title and 1977 double. He later returned as head coach and won the 1986 championship. | Club record 154 league goals; 47 Norway caps; Norwegian Sportsperson of the Year 1981 |
| Frode Kippe | Defender | A towering centre-back who gave the club two decades of service across two spells, from 1997 to 1998 and from 2002 to 2019. He later moved into player development at the club. | Club record 720 appearances in all competitions, 441 in the league |
| Joe Hooley | Head coach | An Englishman who arrived in 1977 and delivered the only top-flight double in the club's history in his first season. His side retained the cup a year later. | 1977 league and cup double; 1978 Norwegian Cup |
| David Hay | Head coach | The former Scotland and Chelsea player led Lillestrøm to the 1989 title. It remains the club's most recent league championship. | 1989 Eliteserien title |
| Alf Martinsen | Player and coach | One of the club's first nationally known players, he gave Lillestrøm its early profile before coaching the side after the war. | 1938 Norwegian Cup semi-final; coach in 1947 to 1950 and 1952 to 1953 |
| Hans Erik Ødegaard | Head coach | Took over a relegated side in December 2024 and led it through an unbeaten season to promotion and the Norwegian Cup. His team then reached the Europa League league phase. | 2025 second-tier title and Norwegian Cup |
| Competition | Titles |
|---|---|
| Norwegian League Champions | 5 (1958/59, 1976, 1977, 1986, 1989) |
| Norwegian Cup | 7 (1977, 1978, 1981, 1985, 2007, 2017, 2025) |
| Top-Flight League and Cup Double | 1 (1977) |
| Second-Tier Titles | 3 (1951/52, 1974, 2025) |
| Royal League Runners-Up | 1 (2005/06) |
Lillestrøm's rivalries are rooted in the geography of the Oslo region and in decades of competition with the country's leading clubs. Each one changes the mood around Åråsen and the price of a seat.
The derby with Vålerenga pits Romerike against the capital and is the headline fixture on the Lillestrøm calendar. The two clubs sit only around 20 kilometres apart, and the meeting on 16 May 2002 drew 13,652 to Åråsen, the stadium's record attendance. Kanarifansen and the Vålerenga supporters bring colour and noise in equal measure, and when both clubs are in the Eliteserien the home derby is one of the hardest tickets in Norwegian football.
Rosenborg, Norway's most successful club, have long been the benchmark Lillestrøm measure themselves against. The rivalry grew through the title races of the 1980s and 1990s and has produced memorable nights, including a 4–2 win over Rosenborg in 2008 that kept Lillestrøm in the top flight. Visits from Trondheim bring a large away following and are among the quickest sell-outs of the season.
Strømmen, from the neighbouring town in Romerike, are Lillestrøm's oldest local rival, with the rivalry dating back to the club's founding. The two have rarely shared a division in recent decades, but the old local pride remains, and meetings in the cup or lower leagues still carry an edge for supporters on both sides. Strømmen even played one of their top-flight home matches at Åråsen in 1986, a reminder of how closely the two clubs' histories are tied.
Lillestrøm have played more than 60 matches in European competition across the European Cup, the UEFA Cup, the Cup Winners' Cup, the Intertoto Cup and the Conference League. Two ties stand out for older supporters.
Lillestrøm's 1987/88 European Cup campaign is one of the club's proudest. After beating Linfield 5–3 on aggregate, they met Bordeaux in the next round and lost by a single goal over two legs. The narrow margin against one of France's strongest sides of the era is still cited by older supporters as proof of how good that team was.
In the 1993/94 Cup Winners' Cup Lillestrøm beat Nikol Tallinn 8–1 on aggregate before facing Torino, losing 3–2 over two legs. Like the Bordeaux tie, it was a close-run contest against a club from one of Europe's major leagues, and it marked the high point of the club's European record in the 1990s.
Other European nights have left their mark too. In 1997/98 Lillestrøm went out of the UEFA Cup to Twente on away goals after a 2–2 aggregate draw, in 2001/02 they knocked out Glentoran and Dynamo Moscow before losing 5–3 on aggregate to Deportivo Alavés, and in 2002/03 they reached the Champions League second qualifying round. Across all competitions the club has won 23 of its first 66 European matches, a record the 2026/27 campaign extends into a new format.
Recent seasons have taken Lillestrøm from European football to relegation and back again. The summaries below cover the five most recent completed seasons. Because the Norwegian season follows the calendar year, each one runs from spring to late autumn.
| Season | Summary |
|---|---|
| 2025 | The most remarkable season in the club's modern history. Lillestrøm won the second tier with 25 wins and five draws from 30 games, scoring 87 and conceding 18, and stayed unbeaten in all competitions. They capped the year by beating Sarpsborg 08 3–1 in the Norwegian Cup final at Ullevaal Stadion, earning a place in the Europa League play-off round. |
| 2024 | A difficult year with three different coaches in charge ended in 15th place and relegation to the second tier. The club appointed Hans Erik Ødegaard in December to lead the rebuild. Supporters who stayed loyal through the season were rewarded the following year. |
| 2023 | Lillestrøm finished sixth, a respectable return but a step down from the previous two seasons. Head coach Geir Bakke left in July and several caretakers took the team through the rest of the campaign. The instability foreshadowed the problems of the following year. |
| 2022 | A second straight fourth-place finish and a Norwegian Cup final appearance confirmed the club's recovery after promotion. In the Conference League qualifiers Lillestrøm beat SJK 6–2 on aggregate before losing to Royal Antwerp. It extended a European record that stretches back to the 1970s. |
| 2021 | Back in the Eliteserien after promotion in 2020, Lillestrøm finished fourth, a finish that led to European qualifiers the following summer. The return to the top half reconnected the club with its traditional standing in Norwegian football. It set the tone for a strong two-year spell. |
Ødegaard's squad blends the core of the unbeaten 2025 side with new arrivals for the step up, including goalkeeper Pontus Dahlberg from IFK Göteborg, midfielder Gustav Nyheim from Molde and forward Camil Jebara from IF Elfsborg. Thomas Lehne Olsen, who scored in the cup final and in extra time against Egnatia, leads the attack. Centre-back Ruben Gabrielsen, who became the club's youngest Eliteserien debutant at 17 in 2009 and returned in 2023 after spells at Molde, Toulouse, FC Copenhagen and Austin FC, brings experience to the defence. Key members of the squad are listed below.
| Player | Position | Nationality |
|---|---|---|
| Stefan Hagerup | Goalkeeper | Norway |
| Pontus Dahlberg | Goalkeeper | Sweden |
| Ruben Gabrielsen | Defender | Norway |
| Espen Garnås | Defender | Norway |
| Sander Moen Foss | Defender | Norway |
| Sturla Ottesen | Defender | Norway |
| Lars Mogstad Ranger | Defender | Norway |

Lillestrøm play at Åråsen Stadion, their home since 1951, an all-seated ground of between 10,000 and 12,000 a short walk from Lillestrøm station. Express trains reach the town in around 10 to 12 minutes from Oslo Central and around 12 to 15 minutes from Oslo Airport, Gardermoen.
Europa League nights at Åråsen are priced above standard league games, with resale seats typically starting from around £60 and rising for central sections and the most attractive opponents. Prices depend on the section and timing, and they may change as availability shifts.
Delivery timing depends on the seller and the fixture, and the expected method is shown on each listing before you buy. Mobile tickets with a QR code are the most common format and are often released in the days before the match, particularly for European games.
Vålerenga from Oslo are the main rival, and the derby holds Åråsen's attendance record of 13,652. Rosenborg are the other great rivalry, while Strømmen IF are the club's oldest local opponents from the neighbouring town.
