Gjemselund Stadion
A rubberised running track went down in 1986, and athletics kept a claim on the site until 2008; the Norwegian athletics championships were held here over three days in August 1968. When the track came out, natural grass gave way in 2009 to an undersoil-heated artificial surface, with new floodlighting and an irrigation system installed at the same time. The current playing surface, laid in 2016, is Saltex, 40mm, with eCork infill.
A standing terrace was built in 1982, a main seated stand followed in 1986–87, and the rebuild of 2009–10 replaced the old temporary structures with modular steel stands manufactured in the Czech Republic, adding 1,962 seats.
The ground belongs to Kongsvinger kommune, which runs it, and it is home to Kongsvinger IL Toppfotball. Norway's under-21 side drew 4–4 with Belgium here in August 2004.
