ForKBH
Parken for KBH.
Parken – Denmark's national stadium. A cultural landmark, not just in the capital but across the country.
Parken
A cultural
landmark
This is where the experiences we never forget are created. Experiences that leave a lasting, positive mark on the more than 1 million guests who visit Parken every year.
But Parken's impact should be about more than experiences and powerful memories.
We want to open Parken up to the city and to football – also when it isn't matchday. We are working to create a responsible Parken that helps develop the club in a more sustainable direction socially, financially and environmentally, not least through strong, strategic partnerships.

Strategic partnership
Parken and Andel in a groundbreaking energy partnership
F.C. Copenhagen and energy group Andel have entered into a strategic, innovative partnership with a focus on the green transition of Parken, Denmark’s national stadium.
With Stop Spild · Since 2020
National food waste day
Together with Stop Spild, Parken actively marks Denmark's national food waste day. Established in 2020, the day is dedicated to raising awareness of how food waste can be prevented and reduced, and it coincides with the UN's international food waste day.
Parken has hosted events on the national food waste day before, including a workshop for students from Roskilde Handelsskole focused on ideas for tackling food waste. We work to reduce our own food waste, and we team up with Stop Spild Lokalt to provide food for the local community on the day. It is all part of our commitment to promoting sustainability and supporting local initiatives.
A responsible Parken
Food and drink
Sustainability and responsibility are at the heart of our catering strategy. When you enjoy food and drink at Parken, you can be sure we prioritise local, green and sustainable solutions. We believe that this not only delivers better quality, but also contributes to a more sustainable future.
We aim to buy locally and work closely with our suppliers to make sure our products live up to the high standards we set. Our coffee, for example, is carefully selected from local suppliers so we can guarantee both quality and sustainability.
Almost 40% of our products are organic, and we place great importance on using local Danish produce. We are also looking into various climate and Fair Trade certifications to make sure our purchasing has a positive impact on both the environment and society.
We have put a strict code of conduct in place for our suppliers to make sure they meet our high demands for sustainability and responsibility. That way, we work to ensure our catering is not only tasty, but also contributes to a better world.

Cleaning products
We are strongly focused on cutting our use of chemicals and are actively working to use more natural alternatives and environmentally friendly products as we strive to minimise our environmental footprint.
Honey from Parken's roof
Urban bees
We are proud to support Bybi and their mission to inspire people in Copenhagen to plant flowers for pollinating insects such as bees. The honey from Parken is not only a delicious treat, but also a way to spread the word about the importance of biodiversity and sustainability.
This local honey is the result of our commitment to supporting sustainable initiatives with local roots, and we hope the honey from the roof of Parken will inspire action to protect our local nature and biodiversity.
