Volksparkstadion
Volksparkstadion, Football stadium in Hamburg, Germany
Volksparkstadion is a football stadium in the Bahrenfeld district with a capacity of around 57,000 seats. The facility features modern infrastructure and viewing areas designed so spectators throughout the ground can see the pitch clearly.
The stadium opened in 1953 and was originally much smaller than its current size. Major reconstruction work between 1998 and 2000 transformed it into the modern facility visitors see today.
The name comes from the adjacent Volkspark, a recreational area where locals spend their leisure time. This place serves as a gathering point where the city's football supporters come together regularly.
The stadium area is easily accessible by public transport and provides ample parking for drivers. Visitors should allow extra time for arrival, especially on days when large events are happening.
The playing field can be rotated 90 degrees, a rare technical solution that allows the stadium to serve multiple purposes flexibly. This innovative system is unusual among European stadiums and makes the venue capable of hosting diverse events.
