It's that time again, and another season for SV Darmstadt 98 is drawing to a close. It was a season of ups and downs, but also spectacular football festivities at the Merck Stadium at Böllenfalltor. Despite many challenges, the Lilies, together with their fans, mastered this season and, above all, secured many points and victories in their shared living room at Böllenfalltor.
The Lilies will begin the new 2. Bundesliga season in August 2025. Therefore, SV Darmstadt 98 would like to inform all its season ticket holders, who have already received a separate email, about the next steps regarding their new season ticket. The most important thing to note: For the first time, season ticket holders don’t need to take any action this summer! Due to the season ticket subscription, the season ticket will automatically be renewed for the current seat/block for the upcoming season, unless it has already been cancelled or is cancelled by May 21, 2025.
Details on the process as well as all other information and the new season ticket prices for the 2025/26 season can be found here:
