On Saturday (07.03/1pm) SV Darmstadt 98 will host the team from Holstein Kiel and asks you to take note of the following information.
Kick-off is at 1pm. The stadium opens 90 minutes prior.
The parking garage for away fans opens at 10am.
SV 98 requests that all Lilies fans arrive at the Merck Stadium at Böllenfalltor early, if 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:
The game is not yet sold out. Remaining tickets for the home section can be purchased via the ticket shop. A ticket office will open for the away section when the stadium opens. Ticketshop!
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 the regular Deutsche Bahn AG trains to Darmstadt Central Station. From there, change to the VIAS Odenwaldbahn train 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 directly in front of the Europaplatz station.
During recent matches, we have observed an increasing number of cups being thrown, and as a result, we will not only receive penalties from the DFB (German Football Association) sports court but have also had to issue numerous nationwide stadium bans of up to two years.
Please refrain from throwing objects! You are endangering others and committing aggravated assault under Section 224 of the German Criminal Code. It is irrelevant whether someone is actually hit and injured by the cup.
The consumption of cannabis remains prohibited under current legislation (prohibition in sports facilities).
Based on recent experiences, SV 98 would like to draw your attention to the following rules and precautions that apply to this match:
Wearing away team merchandise is not permitted in the areas of the opposite stand (blocks G1-G3, A, O2-O4) and the south stand.
The club, the police, and the stadium management are authorized to deny away fans access to these areas, even if they possess a valid ticket, and/or to remove them from these areas and, if sufficient space is available, to take them to the away section of the stadium. If no other suitable seat can be offered, the away fan in question may be removed from the stadium or denied entry; in this case, no compensation will be provided.
SV 98 generally welcomes members using their right to purchase tickets to give them as gifts to friends and family. However, it’s important to remember that passing tickets on to visiting fans can always involve potential security risks or diminish the home advantage for SV 98 – no one should assume they’re the only SV 98 fan doing others a favour. Advance ticket sales are exclusively for SV 98 members and fans. Anyone using their right to purchase tickets to give away fans must expect their preferential rights to be restricted, up to and including the revocation of their season ticket/membership, in accordance with the existing ticket terms and conditions.
The (profitable) resale of tickets, regardless of the method, is completely unacceptable. If discovered, the ticket will be immediately blocked, rendering it worthless to the original purchaser, and no refunds will be issued. SV 98 reserves the right to take further action, such as suspending season tickets, revoking membership, or issuing stadium bans. Instead, if you are unable to attend, you are welcome to use the ticket exchange on sv98.de.
SV 98 is obligated to provide the visiting team with up to 100 tickets in the best category (main stand). Ticket sales are the responsibility of the visiting team.
This match is also expected to see almost full standing room. SV 98 therefore asks all fans to arrive early and, as soon as the stadium opens, to take up positions as far away from the stairs and block entrances as possible. Under no circumstances should fans stand on the stairs or directly in the entrance area. Your friends in your block may not be able to get into the stands or leave safely – regardless of medical assistance. We can only succeed together!
Experience shows that there are usually still gaps in the lower rows and on the outer edges of the blocks, while there is a bottleneck at the block entrance at kick off. Furthermore, fewer standing tickets were sold than permitted. Nevertheless, everyone’s cooperation is needed to ensure a pleasant experience for all fans.
Temperatures of 17 degrees Celsius are expected with blue skies and sunshine. The probability of precipitation is zero percent.

Unmistakably, he glides elegantly across the sky. And when he’s not soaring through the air, he perches atop his nest, which can be up to two metres in diameter. His predominantly white plumage defines his appearance. His red beak and legs provide a striking contrast. We’re talking, of course, about the stork.
