Deutsche Bank Park Tickets

Ahead of the 2006 FIFA World Cup in Germany, the stadium underwent extensive reconstruction. This reconstruction helped to modernise the facilities, adding new state-of-the-art facilities to ensure the Frankfurt Arena was equipped to host the highest quality of football matches.

Home to Eintracht Frankfurt, the Frankfurt Arena can hold over 51,000 spectators and has been used as a cultural hub too, not just for sports. Since the mid-1980s, the Frankfurt Arena has hosted some of music’s biggest names, including Michael Jackson, U2 and Beyonce.

The arena has also had the honour of hosting events such as Euro 1998, the 2005 FIFA Confederations Cup and matches at the 2011 FIFA Women’s World Cup. The stadium also regularly hosts matches for the German national team. When huge football matches are hosted in Germany, the Frankfurt Arena is often considered to be a prime location. It is no different for Euro 2024.

The sports complex, owned by the city of Frankfurt, actually includes more facilities than the stadium itself. Located in the area are facilities such as swimming pools, a tennis complex and a beach volleyball court. The arena also has its own railway station, Frankfurt Stadion, on the national rail network.

Uniquely for a football stadium, the Frankfurt Arena also boasts a retractable roof to protect the pitch from damage from snow or rain. The roof connects to a video cube that hangs over the middle of the pitch, enabling all supporters in the ground to see the score and replay clips of advertisements from sponsors.

The Frankfurt Arena Stands

Unlike some stadiums in use at Euro 2024, the names of Frankfurt Arena’s stands are slightly different from simply north, south, east or west. The south stand is known as the Jürgen Grabowski Tribüne, while the north stand is known as the Haupttribüne.

The south stand was renamed the Jürgen Grabowski Tribüne after the footballer of the same name. Grabowski, who sadly died in 2022, was honoured with a stand name to recognise him as Eintracht Frankfurt’s greatest-ever footballer.

The eastern stand is known as the Ostkurve, while the western stand is known as Nordwestkurve.

The press area and many of the business seats are located in the Haupttribüne, which overlooks the two dugouts on the northern side of the pitch.

For Euro 2024, UEFA has introduced three separate categories for all of its ticketing, with fans able to purchase tickets across Category 1, Category 2 and Category 3 pricing bands.

Category 1 tickets are the most expensive seats that are on offer for games at the Frankfurt Arena.

Positioned in the heart of the Jürgen Grabowski Tribüne or Haupttribüne, Category 1 seats remain in a central area and cut off before the seats in the corners and also cut off towards the top of the stands.

Due to the open design of the stadium, there are no seats within the Category 1 band that will offer a restricted view and due to being placed at the sides of the pitch, a fantastic view of the action should be guaranteed.

The next option are Category 2 tickets. Priced more cheaply than Category 1 options, Category 2 tickets are located all around the Frankfurt Arena. Positioned throughout the four stands, the Category 2 seats are located in the corners and at the lower tiers of each stand behind the goals.

Category 3 tickets are the cheapest on offer, with Category 3 seats running in the top tiers behind each of the goals in the Nordwestkurve and Ostkurve.

At some stadiums at Euro 2024, Category 3 tickets may offer a restricted view of the action. However, this will not be an issue at the Frankfurt Arena, as no seats have a restricted view of the pitch.

Where is the best view?

Every seat inside the Frankfurt Arena will offer you an excellent vantage point for the match, but if we were to recommend seats for the best view then it would be for the Jürgen Grabowski Tribüne or Haupttribüne, as these overlook the length of the pitch and provide the best views of every area.

Running alongside the side of the pitch overlooking the dugout, seats in Jürgen Grabowski Tribüne offer you the best view of both the pitch and the rest of the stadium. You’ll also have the chance to see the players and coaches on the bench in much closer detail.

The Haupttribüne also provides great views of the full pitch from directly opposite the dugouts.

Where are the cheapest seats?

Due to the fact that Euro 2024 tickets are sold out and only available on a small number of exchange platforms, there are no seats that will be cheaper than others. In the regular German season, the top tiers behind each goal contain the cheapest seats.

If this is my first visit, where should I sit?

If you have never been to the stadium before, the best places to sit are in the Jürgen Grabowski Tribüne or the Haupttribüne. In these seats, you are given the best view of the pitch, overlooking the rest of the stadium.

The Jürgen Grabowski Tribüne stand is particularly legendary among Frankfurt supporters, due to it being named after their most iconic player.

Can I get tickets to games at Euro 2024?

If you haven’t already purchased tickets for Euro 2024 games at the Frankfurt Arena, then entry may be difficult.

The first sales of tickets took place in October 2023, with further sales taking place in December 2023 and then again in March and April 2024 for fans of qualified nations.

Some tickets will be resold leading up to the game or via ticket exchanges, so it is worth keeping an eye on official Euro 2024 platforms to check when tickets may go on sale. They will likely be few and far between and so you will need to act quickly to find them.

Is there access for disabled users?

Wheelchair spaces are available at the game for over 100 users, as well as accompanying guests. Wheelchairs are also available at the game if required, as well as headphones with game commentary and descriptions for any visually impaired supporters.

All entrances to the Frankfurt Arena are accessible to disabled users. It is recommended that wheelchair users arrive at the stadium via the road from the Frankfurt Stadion train station in nearby proximity. Other routes to the stadium are through parkland, which can be unsuitable terrain if you are using a wheelchair.

Frankfurt’s public transport operator offers various services to make travelling by bus and train easier for disabled passengers, though you will need to contact the public transport network first to ensure boarding assistance if necessary.

What do I need to do in case of an emergency?

In the unlikely event of an emergency, please reach out to a first responder or volunteer for immediate assistance.

There will be a variety of support services, and response mechanisms will be in place at EURO 2024 to ensure all fans can enjoy their time at the stadium safely.

Can I still turn up without a ticket?

It is not recommended that you arrive at Frankfurt Arena without a ticket, as the venue’s area is not designed to hold more supporters than tickets sold.

There are Fan Zones throughout Germany, including the Fan Zone Mainufer in Frankfurt. Here you will be able to watch games on large screens alongside supporters of other nations at no cost.

Which games are being played here at Euro 2024?

There will be five games in total played at the Frankfurt Arena during Euro 2024. The stadium will host four games during the group stage, and one knock-out match during the Round of 16.

The five games and the dates they are to be played are:

• 17 June 2024: Belgium vs Slovakia
• 20 June 202: Denmark vs England
• 23 June 2024: Switzerland vs Germany
• 26 June 2024: Slovakia vs Romania
• 01 July 2024: Round of 16

What rules do I need to know before entering?

Please be aware that stadium rules may be different from the regular season, and it is worth noting that there are some items that are not permitted inside.

• Bags larger than A4 size won’t be allowed into the stadium.

  You can bring a small power bank, no larger than your phone.

• Make sure you have a valid form of ID.
• Remember that professional cameras and cane umbrellas are not permitted inside the stadium. However, you can bring a small, fully collapsible umbrella.
• All EURO 2024 stadiums are smoke-free venues. Therefore, smoking, e-cigarettes and heat-not-burn tobacco products are not allowed. Please be considerate of other fans.

What is travel like to and from the stadium?

Please note that match ticket holders are entitled to a 36 Hour Travel Pass across the entire RMV (Rhein-Main-Verkehrsverbund) network at no cost. The pass will be valid from 06:00 on matchday until 18:00 the following day.

This is the public transport network in Frankfurt and will enable you to travel within the city and its surrounding areas for free on the day of the game.

Can I park at the stadium?

No public parking will be provided at Frankfurt Arena during Euro 2024 matches. It is strongly advised that you make use of public transport on matchday.

Please note that driving to the game is likely to encounter considerably increased travel time on matchdays, so please plan in advance.

Can I purchase food at the stadium?

There will be a range of hot and cold food that can be purchased from within the stadium.

There will also be a range of kiosks serving a variety of food and drinks outside of the stadium, should you wish to eat before going inside.

Where can I eat nearby?

Aside from the kiosks outside the stadium, there are a range of restaurants in the vicinity.

Recommended restaurants include KAKADU’S, Block House and Panino Mediterranes Restaurant. These will be serving a range of hot food prior to the matches at Euro 2024.

Due to the free travel across Frankfurt with a matchday ticket, there are hundreds of restaurants serving food from Germany and worldwide menus. The city is diverse, and it will be possible to find a restaurant serving whatever takes your fancy at the time.

Please note that because Frankfurt will be busy with tourists on matchdays and throughout the tournament, it would be wise to book a table at a restaurant in advance if you wish to visit one prior to a game.

Can I take food and drinks into the stadium?

No, you will not be allowed to take food or drinks into the stadium. This includes drinks containers, regardless of whether they are full or empty.

A small amount of baby food is permitted inside if you are attending with a baby, though it is generally not advisable to take babies into the stadium.
