On Saturday (31.10.2026/1pm), SV 98 asks you to take note of the following information for the upcoming home game.
Since the start of the season, we have offered women-only entrances at the western entrances. Additionally, there is a Bölle Bande family entrance with easier access at the Karl-Hess-Platz entrance.
Furthermore, the new bicycle parking spaces on Nieder-Ramstädter Straße (adjacent to the training pitch) are now available. Please note that locking bicycles to barriers, doors, and gates is not permitted, and bicycles may be removed if necessary.
Tickets are still available for both the home and away sections (ticket office for Block X2).
Kick-off is at 1pm. Stadium gates open 90 minutes prior.
The parking garage and bus parking area for away fans open at 10am.
The RMV combined ticket remains included free of charge with the stadium ticket. However, day tickets and digital WirLilien tickets will now require a separate digital request before each home game. All information about the new procedure can be found here (RMV combined ticket: New request procedure for day tickets and digital WirLilien tickets – SV Darmstadt 1898 e.V.)
SV 98 requests that all Lilies fans arrive at the Merck Stadium at Böllenfalltor as early as possible, using public transport, walking, or cycling. Travel on the RMV (Rhine-Main Transport Association) is included in the ticket price.
The stadium has four entrances, which are divided into home and away sections:
New features for the 2026/2027 season:
Parking fees in parking lots P7 (guest buses) and P8 (cars, minibuses up to 2m) are payable in cash.
Please be sure to read the detailed Arrival Information and only use the „North-East“ entrance on Böllenfalltorweg.
Coaches should contact our fan support team in advance to receive directions.
Arrival by train is via regular Deutsche Bahn trains to Darmstadt Central Station. From there, change to the VIAS Odenwaldbahn towards Groß-Umstadt/Wiebelsbach and get off at the TU-Lichtwiese stop. After a walk of approximately 15 minutes, you will reach the away entrance of the stadium. For matches where a large number of away fans are expected to arrive by train, shuttle buses will be available at the main station to take you directly to the stadium (away section) and back to the main station after the match. Please use the WEST exit at the main station (take the stairs up to the gallery from the platform and then turn right to the exit). The shuttle buses will be waiting at Europaplatz, located directly in front of the station.

The hosts recorded 18 corners, 26 shots on goal, and 74 percent possession. And yet, in the end, an away win for the team from southern Hesse was displayed on the scoreboard in Saarland.
