Norway's fifth ice hall, opened in 1970

Stjernehallen in Fredrikstad opened in 1970 as the fifth ice hall in Norway. A committee to work for a hall with artificially frozen ice had been appointed in 1963, and after much argument over the choice of site it was finally decided to build the ice hall in Fredrikstad. The hall is the home of the ice hockey club Stjernen Hockey and has a spectator capacity of 2,280; the club's classic rivals are Sparta from Sarpsborg, Vålerenga and Storhamar.

The club's own story goes back to 1960, when the Stjernen sports club decided at its annual meeting at the Victoria Hotel that ice hockey would become a new sport in the club. Home matches have drawn strong supporter pressure since the 1970s. In April 2025 the hall's cooling plant was switched off and the ice began to melt; Fredrikstad kommune decided not to lay new ice that spring and offered to start earlier than usual that autumn, so that the hall could open in week 32, a week before the usual start.
