Schwadbud to reopen for Werkself home games

The Schwadbud has been a meeting point for friends of Bayer 04 at the heart of the BayArena for many years – and finally it will again be accessible for Black and Red fans at the start of the 2022/23 season. After a break of two years due to the coronavirus pandemic, the fan pub in the East Stand of the Werkself ground will be open on matchdays two hours before kick-off.

For over eight years, the Schwadbud has combined the modern and the historic and also provided fascinating access to Bayer 04 history. Initially the traditional watering hole at the BayArena will only be open for Werkself home games.

The opening times of the Schwadbud will be extended to cover Bayer 04 away games from 2023 – provided the difficult staffing situation in catering has eased.
