The vaccine used is Comirnaty® produced by BioNTech/Pfizer. You do not need an appointment. You only need to bring your identity card as an identification document and your vaccination passport – if available. Proof of vaccination will be provided on site if these are not available. Second vaccinations will be provided at the Leverkusen vaccination centre (Erholungshaus) at a future date.
Vaccinations at the BayArena are available to all persons over the age of 18. Young persons over the age of 16 can also be vaccinated on site but this does require the (constant) presence of a guardian. Vaccinations are also available to people who have already contracted Covid-19 and only require a single vaccination. However, there must be a gap of at least six months following contraction of the virus. That requires documentation of a positive PCR test or other evidence of sickness.
This offer of vaccination is also open to people from other locations wanting to have the Covid-19 vaccine. Access to the BayArena is via the North West entrance (F Block). Parking is available under the motorway. Anybody travelling to the vaccination site by bus should use the BayArena stop on Bismarckstraße and walk the short distance past the Lindner Hotel to the appropriate entrance.
Vaccinations are provided by the City of Leverkusen and the medical section of the Leverkusen vaccination centre – the Malteser Hilfsdienst aid agency will be helping out on site. Further information is available by phone on 116 117.
