OPERATIONAL MAP
Stadium access – Signal Iduna Park
GETTING TO THE GROUND
Take the U-Bahn (U45 or U46) to 'Westfalenhallen', which is a 5-minute walk from the ground. Alternatively, the 'Signal Iduna Park' train station is served by regional trains. On match days, the U-Bahn station 'Stadion' is the closest drop-off for away fans.
Warning: Match tickets often include free travel on the VRR transport network on the day of the game. Keep your ticket handy for ticket inspectors.
Away supporters are located in the North Stand (Nord), specifically in blocks 08, 60, and 61 (standing) and 70, 71, and 75 (seating). For European matches, standing areas are converted to seats. Entry is via the 'Eingang Nord' (North Entrance).
PROHIBITED ITEMS
- Bags larger than A4 size
- Power banks
- Professional cameras
- Glass bottles and cans
CRITICAL
The 'Yellow Wall' (South Stand) is strictly home-fan territory; avoid wearing away colors near it. The stadium operates a strict cashless system for food and drinks. Bag drop facilities are limited (cost €0.50).
Exit routes & evacuation
Follow signage to 'U-Bahn' or Shuttle Buses (if applicable).
Exit via Eingang Nord. Fans are usually filtered towards the U-Bahn or parking lots.
MISSION LOGISTICS
Hub
Dortmund (DTM) / Düsseldorf (DUS)
Transfer
DTM is closest but has fewer flights; take the Airport Express bus to Dortmund Hbf. DUS is a major hub; take the regional train (RE1, RE6) directly to Dortmund Hbf (approx. 50 mins).
Tip
Düsseldorf Airport is often the better option for international flights due to better connectivity.
