As in previous years, the Werkself have put together an exciting programme of events for young and old alike. Starting with a show act with pop star Vanessa Mai, through interviews with the two Bayer 04 directors Fernando Carro and Rudi Völler plus with coach Peter Bosz, to the Werkself autograph session inside the BayArena – there is something for every Bayer 04 supporter on Sunday.
Numerous game and fun options – above all for the younger Werkself supporters – are available in the concourse at the BayArena from noon. Tickets priced at five euros each are available by phoning 0049 (0) 214 5000 1904 or from the Bayer 04 shops. Ticket offices will be open on the day of the event. The entrance tickets include a voucher for a free drink
40 years in the Bundesliga, a roller coaster ride with lots of highlights. All that is contained in two DVDs that record the biggest moments for the Werkself over the last 04 decades plus entertaining outtakes provide a look behind the scenes. This DVD is available to purchase for the first time on Sunday and will then be on sale at the Bayer 04 fan shops and at the online shop.
At three information stands (Fan Support next to the shop, in the North Stand D1 and the East Stand B2), supporters have the opportunity to choose from ten different jingles for the new Bayer 04 goal tune. The current tune played when the teams come on, Rockin' all over the World, is also included in the vote. Every vote cast has the chance of winning a voucher for a Werkself shirt.
What proved to be a success at the Champions for Charity events two weeks ago will be commonplace at the BayArena in future. From Sunday, beer and alcohol free cold drinks will only be available from kiosks in reusable containers with a deposit of two euros payable. There are ten deposit points in the stadium where the cups can be deposited to provide a donation for the work of the 'Kreativ Schwarz-Rot e.V.' organisation. They are primarily responsible for the fan choreography at the BayArena.

After the game: autograph session inside the BayArena
Bayer 04 have the chance to reach the quarter-finals of the UEFA Champions League for the third time ever and the first in 14 years at Arsenal on Tuesday night (kick-off 21:00 CEST/20:00 local time). To do that, the Werkself not only require a strong performance like in the first leg, but also full concentration until the very last minute, as the Premier League leaders like to score late - as they did at the BayArena last week. Here's the Matchday News.
