The '''Aker Stadion'''  (known as '''Molde Stadion''' for [[UEFA competitions]] and prior to sponsorship) is an [[All-seater stadium|all-seater]] [[association football|football]] stadium located at [[Reknes]] in [[Molde (town)|Molde]], Norway, and is the home of [[Eliteserien]] club [[Molde FK|Molde]]. The stadium has a current capacity of 11,249&nbsp;spectators.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.moldefk.no/AkerStadion |title=Aker Stadion |publisher=[[Molde FK]] |access-date=7 December 2018}}</ref>

The building was designed by architect [[Kjell Kosberg]]. It cost {{NOK|212 million}}, most of which was paid for by club-owner [[Kjell Inge Røkke]]—after whom the ground has been nicknamed "''Røkkeløkka''". The main construction work took place 1997, and the stadium was inaugurated on 18 April 1998 in a league game against [[Lillestrøm SK|Lillestrøm]], replacing [[Molde idrettspark]] as Molde's home ground. The stadium was nominated for the [[FIABCI]] Prix D' Excellence and awarded the City Prize in 1999. The record attendance of 13,308 was set in a league match against [[Rosenborg BK|Rosenborg]] in 1998. The same year, the arena hosted its first international match, where [[Norway national football team|Norway]] beat [[Saudi Arabia national football team|Saudi Arabia]] 6–0. The following year, when Molde reached the [[UEFA Champions League]], the stadium was converted to an all-seater, reducing its capacity. Since May 2006, the stadium name has been sponsored by Røkke's company [[Aker ASA|Aker]]. The grass pitch was replaced with [[artificial turf]] in 2014.

==History==
Since 1955, Molde had been playing their home games at Molde idrettspark (at the time called Molde stadion), a municipal-owned multi-use venue.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.moldefk.no/historikk/?m=i&p=his-nyttstadion |title=Nytt stadion |publisher=[[Molde FK]] |access-date=24 May 2009 |language=no |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091014223951/http://www.moldefk.no/historikk/?m=i&p=his-nyttstadion |archive-date=14 October 2009 |url-status=dead  }}</ref> A new stadium was proposed to be located at the waterfront at Reknes. There were many local protests, including complaints about the size of the structure. Construction of the land fillings and preparation of the construction site started in March 1997, before final approval had been granted by the municipality.<ref name=om>{{cite web |url=http://www.mfkweb.org/anlegg.php?vis=stadion |title=Om Molde stadion |publisher=MFKweb |access-date=24 May 2009}}</ref><ref name=fakta>{{cite web |url=http://www.moldefk.no/site/main/artikkel.php?page_id=42 |title=Fakta |publisher=[[Molde FK]] |access-date=24 May 2009 |language=no |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090420084401/http://www.moldefk.no/site/main/artikkel.php?page_id=42 |archive-date=20 April 2009 |url-status=dead  }}</ref>

Aker Stadion has been proposed used during the annual [[Moldejazz]], Norway's largest jazz festival, but this has been rejected several times by the festival management.

The club decided on 4 October 2013 to lay [[artificial turf]] on the field, which it hoped would be in place ahead of the 2014 season.
