Now available again: The away season ticket 2024/25!

From now on, all Lilien fans (and fan groups) can apply for an away season ticket (AWDK). With the away season ticket you are guaranteed to receive a standing room ticket for every Lilien competitive away game, which will be set aside for you – By the way, also directly for the cup game at Millerntor against Teutonia Ottensen. Very important: You are making the obligation to accept this card. To ensure this, you pay a deposit of 30 euros at the beginning of the season or before you pick up your ticket for the first time. After the first non-collection of an away ticket, its value will be deducted from the deposit; in the second non-collection, both the deposit and the AWDK will be forfeited.
