Fjelsted Speedway Stadium is a Speedway stadium in Harndrup, Denmark. The stadium is the home track for the Fjelsted Speedway Club.[1]

The municipality identified the village of Fjelsted for the construction of a motorcycling track in 1971 on the location of an old apple orchard. After joining the Danish Motor Union (DMU) in 1973, a larger track was built three years later in 1976.[2]

The stadium held the Danish final of the Speedway World Championship in 1978[3][4] and the 1990 Intercontinental final was held at the track.[5]

In 2017, the Danish Individual Speedway Championship was held at the stadium for the ninth time in its history.[6]
