Modernised media area unveiled at BayArena

Bayer 04 has modernised its media working area in the stands at the BayArena and equipped it with new, multifunctional monitors. The 50 screens will be used for the first time for the fixture against Borussia Dortmund on Matchday 13 in the Bundesliga next Sunday, 3 December (kick-off: 17:30 CET) and offer the media representatives working at the BayArena on matchday numerous possibilities.

The new equipment consists of 13-inch full HD monitors with a resolution of 1920x1080 pixels and a brightness of 300 Cadela installed in rows 9 and 10. The new technology makes it possible to follow the television picture live in HD quality at the same time as the live action in the stadium. Media representatives can select different channels individually via a user-friendly navigation module on each table.

During the match against Dortmund, it will be possible to receive the live broadcast picture on channel 1, the live match statistics will be displayed on channel 2, and the scores of the current matchday can be viewed on channel 3. In the future, there will be further selection options, for example the Bayer 04 live blog.

Holger Tromp, Director of Communications at Bayer 04: "It is important to us that we support the media representatives working on their reporting at our games as professionally as possible. The demands on journalists have increased enormously in recent years. As a club, we also aim to always offer the most modern infrastructure possible."

New seating for the BayArena - donation and reuse of existing seats

A fresh look for the BayArena: The Bayer 04 stadium will have new seating in the form of folding seats for the 2026/27 campaign that will ensure significantly improved seating comfort and simplified movement within the rows of seats. As part of routine replacement after 17 years, fans of the Werkself were able to purchase the existing seats, used to witness the first German league title in the club's history. In addition, a large proportion of the seats will be donated to charitable projects, primarily in the local region. Bayer 04 fans can look forward to new, functional folding seats for the season opener at the beginning of August - still in the club colours of black and red, of course. A glimpse at the BayArena during the refurbishment.
