Matchday Experience
Away fans Guide
Away fans (Bortasupportrar) are housed within the greyed out sections R and Q as per the above seating plan with tickets costing 120 SEK. The visiting supporters can share this uncovered goal-end with the home supporters but more often than not have it to themselves.
Club Shop
There are four IFK souvenir shops located more or less within every stand of Stadion Nya Parken. As they usually only open on matchdays you may wish to visit IFK Norrköping’s online store instead.
You can also buy IFK Norrkoping Merchandise online here.

It doesn’t appear as if guided tours are available of either the wider Idrottsparken or specifically Nya Parken Stadion.

Car Parks
There appears to be a few small parking areas at the stadium but nothing which suggests IFK Norrköping would actively encourage driving to the ground on matchday.

Hotels Near Stadium
Whilst there a few accommodation options west of the stadium you can find similar value back within the city centre where the location is much better. Three well priced places to stay which are three stars appear to be the Best Western Princess Hotel, Hotell Drott and Hotel Centric.
