AC Horsens has launched “Mission 8700,” an effort to fill Hybel Arena Horsens with 8,700 spectators when the reigning Danish champions, AGF, visit on Sunday, 20 September.
Creating a Vibrant Atmosphere at Hybel Arena
The club aims to turn the stands yellow and create a strong home atmosphere for the East Jutland derby. According to the club, big crowds have made a clear difference in past high-stakes matches, and it wants the city’s residents, supporters, and partners to get behind the team in the same way.
Kickoff is set for 16:00, with festivities starting well before the match. Plans include an expanded fan zone, food trucks, additional activities, and entertainment for children. Bilka is listed as the match sponsor, with a focus on family-friendly offerings. Shortly before the players take the field, local performer Albert Heath is scheduled to present a special version of his Horsens-themed song.
AGF arrive as Danish champions and a leading force in the regional football hierarchy. AC Horsens says it intends to make the visitors feel the pressure of an away ground and to showcase what the city can produce when it stands together.
As of the announcement, 4,115 tickets had been sold, indicating strong community interest in this thrilling match. With the support of local fans and initiatives like Mission 8700, AC Horsens is poised to create an unforgettable experience on match day.
