Stadium festival as part of EURO 2024

The „Stadion Europa Youth Festival“ will take place on May 29th from „Lernort Stadion e.V. – Bölle makes education“ and SV Darmstadt 98 in the Merck Stadium at the Böllenfalltor. In the run-up to the European Football Championship in Germany, both partners want to work together to inspire young people from Darmstadt and the surrounding area in the Lilies' home stadium in a youth-friendly and fun way for a diverse and democratic Europe and thus get them in the right mood for the UEFA Euro 2024 in Germany.

In the morning, the student groups will take part in numerous closed workshops on European topics. The workshops will focus on the following topics, among others: participation and European elections, sustainability, gender equality in football, human rights and wishes for Europe.

In the afternoon (from 2pm) the festival area will be open free of charge to all young people from Darmstadt and the surrounding area. The welcoming speech will be given by Mayor Barbara Akdeniz and Bernard Gutowski, Managing Director of the Football and Culture EURO 2024 gGmbH Foundation. On the stadium grounds there will be interactive information stands from civil society about Europe as well as a human table football, a creative workshop, stadium tours, an SVD raffle and an exhibition on anti-discrimination. The open program is rounded off with live music as part of the “European Song Contest” by young bands from Darmstadt.

In the evening, the program concludes with a panel discussion on the topic “Cosmopolitan Darmstadt?”. From various perspectives from politics, sport, education and civil society, it is discussed how social division influences social cohesion in Darmstadt and what measures can be taken to promote integration and inclusion. Multipliers from the above-mentioned specialist areas are invited.

The festival is supported by the Football & Culture EURO 2024 Foundation gGmbH and the Franco-German Youth Office (DFJW).

Opposition Check: SpVgg Greuther Fürth

It was the sixth matchday of the 2017/18 season, a sunny Sunday in September, and the second division fixture between SpVgg Greuther Fürth and Fortuna Düsseldorf was on the schedule. With Florian Neuhaus, Friedhelm Funkel, and Serdar Dursun on or off the pitch, the duel ended 3-1 for Fürth – thanks in part to a brace from Dursun. At first glance, probably just a typical second division victory. But historically significant and unforgettable for everyone in Fürth.

The long wait for a point is over! After four consecutive defeats, SV Darmstadt 98's U21 team finally secured some points.
