Prussian Supporters Set to Invade Berlin Olympic Stadium for Saturday’s Match

Berlin anticipates a significant influx of fans as Prussia prepares to face their rivals in a highly anticipated match at the iconic Olympic Stadium.

Thousands of supporters are gearing up to descend upon Berlin this Saturday, echoing the enthusiastic turnout seen last season when over 6,000 Prussian fans celebrated a thrilling 2-1 away victory shortly before Christmas. Organizers expect more than 5,000 followers to accompany the team this weekend, creating an electric atmosphere.

Stadium Access and Arrival Information

The Olympic Stadium will open its gates 90 minutes before kickoff, at 11:30 a.m. local time. Visiting fans will be allocated blocks G, H, and 15-17, and are directed to utilize the western entrance at the south gate (left) for smooth access. The east gate is reserved exclusively for home supporters.

Notably, there will be no on-site box office available on match day. However, fans can still secure entry through digital tickets purchased via barcodes. A security measure is in place prohibiting the wearing of visiting team apparel outside the designated guest area, and fans are advised to avoid the east curve section of the stadium. Within the guest area, both cash and card payments – including contactless options like Apple Pay and Google Pay – will be accepted.

Parking and Transportation Logistics

Multiple parking options surround the Olympic Stadium. The official car park for visiting supporters is PO7, with a fee of €10. Dedicated disabled parking spaces are available in lot PO5, accessible free of charge with a valid blue or orange parking permit. Additional parking can be found along Heerstrasse. The navigation address for PO7 is Parkplatz, Passenheimer Str. 32, 14053 Berlin.

However, officials strongly recommend utilizing the S-Bahn (urban railway) for travel to the stadium. Lines S3 and S9, heading towards Spandau/S-Bahnhof Olympiastadion, offer convenient access. From the Flatowallee exit, the stadium is a mere 200 meters away, with clearly marked footpaths guiding fans from the station. It’s important to note that regular public transport tickets are not valid as match tickets.

Ride-Sharing and Alternative Viewing Options

For fans seeking or offering transportation, the Bundesliga-Mitfahrportal provides a platform for carpooling arrangements. Further details and access to the portal can be found at www.bundesliga-mitfahrportal.de.

Those unable to attend the match in person will still have ample opportunities to follow the action. The game will be broadcast live on Sky in Pay TV, both as a standalone event with commentary from Thorsten Customer, and as part of the Saturday conference coverage. Fans can also tune into live audio streams from Fanradio Received Street and the sports show, or follow a live text ticker via the website and app.

The anticipation is building for what promises to be a memorable clash in Berlin, with thousands of passionate fans set to create an unforgettable atmosphere.
