The Soccer School, fan liaison plus the different Bayer 04 clubs - Löwenclub, Teens, Club, and Silberlöwen – will be on site all day to present their programmes for the forthcoming season. There is also a diverse and multicultural offer of food and drink throughout the day.
Car park P3 at the BayArena will be a playground for young and old from 10.30 CEST through to 16.30 CEST.
The highlights: The presentation of the Werkself squad on stage the day after the first competitive match of the campaign – away to third division SV 07 Elversberg in the DFB Cup. And the Women’s team with their new coach Robert de Pauw will also be presented on stage.
