For the 2026/27 season, around 500 new home season tickets were allocated to fans on the season ticket waiting list – partly due to cancellations resulting from black market activities, which Bayer 04 will continue to pursue in future. The waiting list continues to grow, with more than 10,000 fans still waiting for a home season ticket. The waiting list will remain the only chance to secure a home season ticket in the coming years. Registration for the waiting list is open HERE up to and including Thursday 27 August (11:59 CEST).
In addition to the existing Bundesliga and BundesligaPlus season ticket schemes, Bayer 04 offered fans a European season ticket for the first time. This ticket allows supporters to follow and support the Werkself on the European stage during the 2026/27 campaign. They are guaranteed a ticket for every Europa League home match at the BayArena, up to and including a possible semi-final. All 2,200 European season tickets available for the 2026/27 season were sold out within a week.
Sales of single match tickets for the matches in the UEL group stage will begin in the coming days. As usual, all the relevant information will be available via the club media channels.
Single match tickets for the Werkself home games are also proving very popular. The allocation for the home match against RB Leipzig is already sold out. For the match against Union Berlin, a limited number of tickets are available from returns by the visiting club; a limited number are also still available for the match against SC Freiburg.
The allocation of tickets for the opening away match of the Bundesliga season against newly promoted SV 07 Elversberg was sold out shortly after tickets went on sale. Tickets are still available for the match in Augsburg.
The Bayer 04 women’s team face two top-class opponents right from the start in their first two Bundesliga home matches in 2026/27: Runners-up VfL Wolfsburg visit the Ulrich Haberland Stadium on Sunday, 30 August (kick-off: 16:00 CEST). Champions Bayern Munich provide the opposition on Monday 14 September (kick-off: 18:30 CEST). Tickets for these two top-of-the-table clashes are available HERE.
The women’s season ticket is also still available until 16 September – you can find all the details HERE. More women’s season tickets have been sold than last season.
Whether it’s the men’s or women’s team, home or away, at home or abroad – Bayer 04 fans are eagerly looking forward to the 2026/27 campaign.
