Information for visiting the stadium for the match against Bielefeld

Admission slots:

Starting with the home match against Arminia Bielefeld on 13 February, we will once again be using entry slots. You can find these here.

Contact tracing:

With the entry into force of the new Coronavirus Regulation for Baden-Württemberg, contact tracing will no longer be required as of 9 February 2022.

Masks:

Wearing an FFP2 mask is mandatory at all times in the PreZero Arena until you reach your seat!

The 2G+ model is a prerequisite for admission to the Arena:

In addition to a valid ticket and an ID / passport, proof of full vaccination (in digital form) or proof of recovery from Covid-19 is required.

In addition, a negative test certificate from a recognised test site must be submitted (please note the exceptions here). This can be a rapid antigen test taken on match day (not older than 24 hours at the end of the match) or a PCR test (not older than 48 hours at the end of the match). Lateral flow tests done yourself are not permitted.

Exceptions:

• People who have already received a booster vaccination.
• People who have been vaccinated, whose primary vaccination course was completed not longer than 3 months ago.
• People who have been proven to have been infected with Covid-19 no more than 3 months ago (confirmation of the infection by a laboratory diagnosis using nucleic acid / PCR test).
• Children up to and including 5 years of age, and children aged 6 and 7 who are not yet enrolled in school. Pupils who attend a primary school, a special educational and counselling centre, a school building on primary school or a vocational school, as they are regularly tested three times a week in school. The exception applies only to pupils up to and including 17 years of age. Proof of school attendance in the form of a student ID card or a school certificate is mandatory.
• People who cannot be vaccinated for medical reasons. A prerequisite for this is the presentation of a medical certificate and a rapid antigen test taken on match day (not older than 24 hours and valid until the end of the match).

Complete vaccination:

• A vaccination is only recognised as valid if the second dose of the vaccine has been administered.
• At least 14 days must have passed since of final dose.
• Only vaccinations with Covid-19 vaccines recognised by the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut will be accepted.
• Proof of vaccination must be provided in digital form (Corona Warn app, Luca app or CovPass).

Proof of recovery:

The following persons are considered to have recovered:

• The person must have been infected with Covid-19 less than three months ago and more than 28 days ago. An infection must be confirmed by a positive PCR test.
• The person must have been infected with Covid-19 more than 3 months ago (positive PCR test must be submitted) and must be able to prove vaccination with a vaccine on the list of the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut.

The following test deadlines therefore apply for the home match against Arminia Bielefeld:

Rapid antigen test: Saturday, 12.02.2022 – 19:30 CET

PCR test: Friday, 11.02.20222 – 19:30 CET

All older tests are no longer valid on match day. Please pay careful attention to these dates!

Admission

• The usual checks are carried out at the entrance. In addition, the 2G+ check will be carried out, along with a check of the tickets and an ID/passport check.

Grandstands

• Based on the current Coronavirus Regulation, which provides for a reduction of the total capacity to 10 percent in the standing room area, only seated tickets will be available in the entire stadium. The seating arrangement in the standing room blocks S1/S2 will therefore be similar to the arrangement for international games.
• Wearing an FFP2 mask is mandatory in the areas around the stadium and in the stands. Masks may only be removed for eating and drinking.
• Smoking is still prohibited in the stands.
• Please ensure good hand hygiene and use the hand sanitiser provided.
• Please observe the etiquette for coughing and sneezing.

Areas around the stadium

• Wearing an FFP2 mask is mandatory in the areas around the stadium and in the stands. Masks may only be removed for eating and drinking.
• Smoking areas are designated along the outer fences.
• The shelves may once again be used for food and drink consumption.

Please note that there will be no box office on match day. Tickets can be booked through our online shop until half-time! You can even use our online shop on the go and get "mobile tickets"!

We hope you enjoy it!
