There are no longer any restrictions for home games at the BayArena following recent changes to the state Coronavirus Protection Order. That means the capacity at the BayArena is again restored to 30,210 and there are also standing areas in the home and away ends. The mask mandate no longer applies to areas in the open air but Bayer 04 do recommend the continued earing of the face covering. Further information can be found in the home game FAQs.
