Few cities have such a wide variety of sports offers and facilities to choose from as Esbjerg. This was also one of the reasons the International Olympic Committee chose Esbjerg to host the 1999 Summer Youth Olympics, when thousands of young athletes competed in ten different sports disciplines in beautiful, perfect settings.
Need we mention the swimming stadium at Sport & Event Park Esbjerg, with Denmark’s loveliest water park and a competition pool 50 metres long and 25 metres wide?

Stadionhallen sports hall is also scenically situated in Sport & Event Park Esbjerg. The same is true of two ice-skating rinks which can accommodate elegant ice-skating princesses and tough ice-hockey players alike. Not to mention a curling hall, badminton hall and cricket pitch
