Fan Information for the Dresden Game

Public transport in Dresden will also be on strike on Friday. It will begin at 3am on Friday and last until 3am on Saturday. Public transport within the city will be largely suspended that day. According to information from Dresden, this does not currently affect DB Regio services or train services. However, please plan accordingly. Consequently, there will likely be no public transport in Dresden itself. Trams and buses will not be running.

Arrival/Parking by car, nine-seater van, and coach:

For GPS navigation (parking): Pieschener Allee 6, 01067 Dresden.

The organiser provides a parking lot on Pieschener Allee (fairgrounds) for visiting fans. To ensure a smooth transfer to the stadium, it is recommended to use the reserved guest parking area.

The Dresden police recommend the following route: Exit the A4 motorway at the Dresden-Altstadt interchange (exit 78) and follow the B6 via Meißner Landstraße, Hamburger Straße, Bremer Straße, and Magdeburger Straße towards the city centre/trade fair grounds. From Magdeburger Straße, turn left towards the trade fair grounds onto Schlachthofstraße. Follow this road for approximately 250 meters and then turn right onto Messering/Pieschener Allee. After approximately 800 metres, the guest parking area will be on your left.

The parking area offers restrooms and ample parking spaces. A shuttle bus service will run from the parking area to the stadium to ensure safe and timely transport. Deviating from the recommended route or attempting to find parking independently is strongly discouraged. Shuttle buses will also be provided for the return journey from the stadium to the guest parking area after the match.

Information from the Dresden Police: All organised bus groups are requested to proceed to the Dresdner Tor Süd rest area on the A4 motorway. From there, the police will guide the buses to the Volksfest grounds guest parking area.

IMPORTANT: We recommend refraining from wearing away team colours within the city limits.
