Our partner Krombacher is offering a special trip to the last away game. On the morning of May 18, 2024, the Krombacher Fan Tour will travel from Darmstadt to Krombach for a brewery tour including tasting and from there to the Signal Iduna Park, where SV Darmstadt 98 will be guests at Borussia Dortmund on matchday 34. You can find all information about the Krombacher Fan Tour in this message.
The first stop of the Krombacher Fantour, which starts from Darmstadt, is in Krombach. The participants are expected there to tour the Krombacher brewery, including a visit to the brewery and the consumption of the Krombacher triad consisting of Krombacher Pils, Westphalian ham and the Krombacher Braustubenbrot. Of course, you can also try all other products from the Krombacher brewery (including non-alcoholic ones) without limit.
We then move on to the Lilies‘ last game of the season against Borussia Dortmund at Signal Iduna Park. After the end of the season in Dortmund, the journey takes the bus back to Darmstadt.
Food and Drink: Plenty of drinks (also non-alcoholic) from Krombacher are provided. These are provided free of charge. Please bring your own breakfast and snacks.
