Third district matchday of 2024/25: Bayer 04 is Hitdorf!

Bayer 04’s Bundesliga game at home to St. Pauli on Saturday, 7 December will be the next district matchday of the season, with the district of Hitdorf being the stage for numerous activities in the week building up to the fixture against the promoted side.
Stadtteilspieltag Hitdorf

After the successful district matchdays in Schlebusch and Lützenkirchen, Bayer 04 is now looking forward to being present in Hitdorf for fans and residents.

School visit and Christmas market

To strengthen the connection between Bayer 04 and the district, there will be a visit to a school in Hitdorf. The exchange with the pupils is intended to familiarise them with the values of the Werkself and create an unforgettable experience through exciting activities.

A highlight of the activities of this district matchday will take place on 30 November at the Christmas market in Hitdorf (Kirmesplatz Hitdorfer Straße). Bayer 04 will be represented here from around 4.30pm to 8pm with a wheel of fortune, a sales stand and Bayer 04 mascot Brian the Lion. The Hitdorf district shirt will also be available directly at the market. Those interested can already order it online in the Bayer 04 shop HERE.

Exclusive competition for Hitdorf residents

Another special highlight is an exclusive competition for Hitdorf residents only. Residents of the area have the chance to win tickets for the match against St. Pauli. Hitdorf residents should therefore keep their eyes peeled for mail from Bayer 04 over the next two weeks.

Bayer 04 is looking forward to an unforgettable event with the Hitdorf fans and cordially invites everyone to come along and celebrate this special day together.
