Buying a ticket, step by step
When tickets go on sale: Members and season-ticket holders buy first; general sale opens a few weeks before the match and is announced on hannover96.de/tickets.
Membership: None needed for single tickets (members get priority sale). It gets you in before general sale, but you don't need it.
- Open hannover96.de/tickets, which explains the sale phases and links to the official ticket shop.
- Register for a free account in the ticket shop with your real name, address and email.
- Select the home match and check whether it is in the members phase or general sale.
- Choose a block on the map. Standing places in the Nordkurve cost the least; seated blocks along the sides cost more.
- Pay by card or PayPal and download the ticket as a print-at-home PDF or save it to your phone.
- Bring the ticket on your phone to the turnstile; the ground is a short Stadtbahn ride from the centre.
Tips
- Avoid unofficial resale sites; use the club shop or its official ticket exchange.
- Arrive early for the walk from Stadionbrücke through the Maschsee park area; it is pleasant and busy.
