Aalborg · Sports & events

AaB play Superliga football from July to May with a winter break, at a compact ground next to the arena complex south of the centre.

The city's handball team plays from September to May at the Gigantium arena and regularly reaches the late stages of European competition.

The fjord hosts rowing and sailing through the summer, and the city's clubs run open sessions for visitors who can already handle a boat.

Vestre Fjordpark's saunas and ladders stay in use all year, and the winter bathing clubs are as much a social institution as a sport.
