The Bayer 04 Schwadbus has been in service since August 2016 and is proved to be a hit with young and old alike in its many appearances. The English double-decker, built in 1963, has been restored and now bears the club colours of red and black.
From the start of April, the black and red double-decker is now finally available to hire. Whether it's for a wedding, stag night or a birthday. The Bayer 04 Schwadbus has 21 seats, a music system complete with microphone, a TV and a stage built into it. The roof can also be opened in good weather.
Experience this unique ride with our nostalgic double-decker and turn your celebration into an unforgettable occasion. For further information contact us by telephone on 0049 (0)214 8660 194 or via email on schwadbus@bayer04.de.
