Since its opening in 2001, the VELTINS-Arena has been one of the most modern and popular stadiums in Germany and Europe.
Cashless payments using the Schalker Knappenkarte make visiting the arena convenient and easy—the VELTINS-Arena is particularly well-equipped in terms of services and, even after more than 15 years, still maintains exceptionally high standards.
There are 14,000 parking spaces and shuttle buses available for guests arriving by car. To make the stadium experience possible for everyone, there are also parking spaces with stair-free access to the arena for Schalke fans with limited mobility. Even during the construction of the new Schalke stadium, great importance was attached to designing the arena with the greatest possible accessibility.
Should any questions arise at the match, concert or other major event, visitors can rely on the skilled members of the Royal Blue Volunteers team, who will be on hand to provide advice and assistance throughout the stadium on the day of the match and event and look after visitors on a voluntary basis.
