The Long Field Road – AC Horsens’ Irish-Inspired Fan Pub

Where Horsens Football Comes to Life Indoors

The Long Field Road is more than a neighborhood pub: it is the living room of AC Horsens. Tucked at Langmarksvej 61, close to the stadium action, this Irish‑inspired bar blends classic pub warmth with the colors and symbols of the local football club. From the moment you step inside, club scarves, shirts and banners add splashes of yellow and black to the dark woods and soft lighting. The layout is made for gathering. High tables, bar stools and snug corners are arranged so fans can talk tactics, raise glasses or simply soak up the anticipation before kick‑off. On non‑match days, it eases into a more relaxed local bar, but the identity of AC Horsens remains at the core of the space.

Design Details and a Touch of Ireland

The interior nods to an Irish pub without feeling like a theme park. Expect polished wooden bar tops, cozy seating and the gentle glow of pendant lamps reflected in mirror‑backed shelves. Dark greens, deep browns and the club’s signature yellow play off each other to create a familiar, comfortable setting. Behind the bar, a lineup of draft beers, bottled brews and spirits invites you to linger over a pint. Screens are positioned so that major football fixtures and key Danish games are always within sight, turning the room into a compact, indoor grandstand when the whistle blows.

Match-Day Energy and Everyday Evenings

On match days, the pub transforms into a buzzing hub of noise and color. Fans arrive in shirts and scarves, songs rise and fall, and pre‑game nerves mix with the smell of beer and bar snacks. The atmosphere is noisy and convivial rather than rowdy, with groups flowing in and out around kick‑off and final whistle. Outside the fixture calendar, The Long Field Road hosts casual evenings where locals watch international football, chat at the bar or take advantage of themed nights and occasional live music. It remains very much a football bar, but one that also functions as a friendly neighborhood spot for a drink.

A Local Anchor in Modern Horsens

Horsens has evolved from an industrial town into a modern Jutland city with cultural venues and major events, and The Long Field Road fits that story as the club’s contemporary fan base grows. Opened in 2021 as a fresh chapter for supporters, it offers a physical home for traditions, chants and shared memories connected to the city’s team. Because it is closely tied to the club, the pub often reflects the rhythm of the season: hopeful early‑autumn evenings, tense winter fixtures, springtime promotion dreams. Even when the stadium is quiet, the bar keeps that narrative alive through memorabilia, screens and conversations at the counter.

Planning Your Visit Inside the Pub

Visitors can treat The Long Field Road as a pre‑game ritual, a place to watch an away match or simply a welcoming bar while exploring Horsens. Seating is mostly informal, making it easy for couples, small groups and solo travelers to find a spot. Noise levels vary from gentle background chatter on a Tuesday to full‑throated chanting on big match nights. The venue is primarily indoors, which makes it appealing in Denmark’s colder months. Basic comforts such as seating, shelter from the weather and bar service are central to the experience, with staff accustomed to busy surges around kick‑off. For football‑minded travelers, it offers a direct line into local sporting culture with a beer in hand.
