I've booked the Tuesday and Wednesday nights in this place for the Denmark friendly. It's about €40 per person per night sharing while a single room varies from about €70 to €85 a night. While it's small and basic it's also very central and clean with every room en suite.

I stayed in the Cab Inn in Copenhagen in December for the Celtic game.
520 Danish kronor a night. A fine spot. They throw loads of beds into a tiny box room yet it still feels spacious.
I think I should the parachute, because I'm great.
In fact, I think I should get both parachutes, in case one doesn't work.

Probably fly SAS from Dublin to Copenhagen. Aarhus isn't that far.
Im not sure because Im living in Gothenburg so I get the train or bus.

120 miles from Copenhagen to Aarhus, about 3 hours by train.

We got a Ryanair flight from London to Aarhus for about €140 although I can't remember the exact price. We still have to book our flight from Dublin to London but I reckon that all the flights will come to about €200. The only thing with these flights is that the one which departs for Aarhus on Tuesday morning leaves at about 7:30am so you'd have to stay London on Monday night. The same applies on the way home, the flight from Aarhus to london does not get in until about 11:30 on Thursday night so again you'd need to spend the night in London. It doesn't affect us as we have free accommodation in London on both nights but if you don't it would obviously add a fair bit to the cost of the trip.
Ryanair fly direct from Dublin to Billund, which is about 1.5 hours from Aarhus. Its costs around 20 euros to get from Billund to Aarhus so it's a good travel option for people planning on heading out for this game.
What date in August is this match on. Cant find any info on the Fai site... Maybe im blind
The game is scheduled for Weds 22nd August though I don't know the ko time.
Lol i was there but we rechristened it the Cheap Ass Inn, its grand nice and cheap paid 70 for 4 nights in a double room. Which was a box with 2 beds pushed together. Its in a good spoton the canal but during the week the place is dead. Few mates paid €100 for a 3 bed room.I stayed in the Cab Inn in Copenhagen in December for the Celtic game.

Kick off is 20:00. Tickets went on sale in Denmark 2 weeks ago.
Does anyone know how much the FAI tickets are?
The Danes have 2 categories for tickets; Category 1 is ~43 euro and Category 2 @ ~35 euro.
For cheap flights, ye could also try Ryan Air direct from Dublin into Malmo (Sturup airport). The bus to CPH takes 50 minutes and then there's the 3 hour train journey to Århus.
Away fans are normally put behind one of the goals so I'd say our tickets will be the cheaper Category 2 ones.
Just seen on the FAI site that tickets are €42

Is there many making this trip. I am feeling guilty now about not going to this and I was wondering is there many heading over for it. I am finding it hard to convince both myself and my mates to go to this 1, so close to the double header.

Will away fans (or any fans) be allowed?
Good point, I forgot about that.

As far as I know the Danish fans have a very good record when it comes to their behaviour so I doubt there will be a ban on fans at their games. Either way our flights are bought and paid for.

Aarhus is a centre for education on the peninsula of Jutland drawing students from a large area, especially from the western and southern parts of the peninsula. The relatively large influx of young people and students creates a natural base for cultural activities and there are many cafes - around 500 in the city - as well as discoteques, cinemas, museums, amusement parks and various other venues of entertainment. Each year the town hosts several festivals and concerts including Aarhus International Jazz Festival and Aarhus Festuge the biggest festival in Scandinavia.
One major tourist attraction in Aarhus is The Old Town (Danish: Den Gamle By), which is not actually an old part of the city itself, but a collection of historic Danish buildings gathered from all around the country. The old town was recently ranked one of the 3 best tourist attractions in Denmark in the same category as Tivoli and Legoland. The city also hosts the Tivoli Friheden amusement park as well as the Deer Park situated in the large nearby public forest.
Architecturally impressive sights include the 13th century cathedral in the centre of the city; Århus Domkirke is the tallest cathedral in Denmark, as well as the second tallest in Northern Europe, being only 45 cm (18 in) shorter than its counterpart in Trondheim. The Aarhus City Hall is a uniquely designed building drawn by renowned architect Arne Jacobsen, located in the city centre. The city hall is included in the national educational canon for culture as an example of important architectural work.
There are many museums scattered around the city with ARoS being the newest and largest featuring daily exhibits of contemporary art. Other museums include Aarhus Kunstbygning also featuring mostly contemporary art, Frihedsmuseet focusing on the occupation and resistance movement during World War II and Kvindemuseet mainly showcasing feminist history and culture.

Being a comparably large Danish city, Aarhus has received a fair share of immigrants from various other cultures and is as such also home to one of the few ghettos in Denmark, Gellerup. The international cultures present in the community are an obvious and visible part of the city's daily life and contribute to many cultural flavours uncommon for the North, such as the Arabic themed Bazar West, a market with shopkeepers predominantly of foreign descent.
The city has an active and visible gay and lesbian community which the city officially attempts to promote and nurture.[5] The Aarhus Festuge festival usually includes several exhibits, concerts or events specifically designed for these communities. There are several clubs, discos and cafes aimed at gays and lesbians: Danish D-lite (sports), Diskotek Blender (disco) or Gaia Vandreklub (hiking club) are a few examples. The mood in the city is generally relaxed towards group minorities of varying persuasions and safety and security is generally very good.
It is common for tourist brochures and local politicians to refer to the town with the tongue-in-cheek slogan "The worlds smallest big city" reflecting the fact that the city has everything a city needs while unquestionably not a metropolis. Another popular, and perhaps better known phrase to describe the city, is "City of Smiles" - a slogan first coined by the city council in the 1930s as an advertising slogan, and which subsequently is used widely in popular culture today.
