I love the experience of watching German football in great stadiums. This is just another one in a country that loves football
Der Borussiapark ist mit Abstand das Stadion mit den besten Fans und der besten Stimmung in ganz Deutschland! Gladbach ist der geilste Club der Welt!!!
Borussia Moenchengladbach has been my team for decades as I discovered them as a high school student back in the 1970s in my home town of Philadlephia. A recent trip to Germany allowed my wife and I to see "my" team live again. Borussia Park is a very modern stadium with a capacity of about 50,000. There is a team shop outside the stadium with a club bar (we did not visit the bar) called Borussia**. Concessions are basic but good, the usual beer and soda and brats and fish sandwiches, and were not overly expensive. The game program is free--but you might have to search for it (we did not find them until after the game). There are two large video boards at opposite corners. The North Curve is the fan area and is a standing area. You cannot enter if you are wearing colors of the other team for safety purposes. Tickets may be obtained in advance on line--they even sent them to my address in North America at a nominal charge. The ticket site has an English version and you get to choose your seats. Parking around the stadium ($) is good and access is directly off the Autobahn. Public transportation is also available with shuttles from the main train station a few miles away, as the stadium is on the outskirts of town (surrounded by an industrial park and farms, actually). Your game ticket includes access to public transportation. Bathrooms were as clean as could be expected for a major stadium.
Smart ground, good cafe, if you are lucky you get to see squad training. Bit out of town, need a car
Since 2004 the home of football club Borussia Monchengladbach, who are currently getting famous again throughout Europe due to their EuroLeague matches - always accompanied by numerous supporters on away matches.You will get to see Bundesliga football at it's best or at it's worst. Depends on the form of the players. ;)Usually the stadium is almost sold out or at least full to 90%. Atmosphere varies from decent to impressive.I love it here!PRO:- football & beer (come on, guys! what do you want more?)- historyCONS:avoid the french fries!!!
I got to see a home match of Borussia Monchengladbach while I was in Germany... A storied football club with a long history. Talk about cheering!!! My 1st European football match was amazing. The crowd , rowdy, but fun. The stadium is fairly new and beautiful. But it is a bit outside the city . We boarded one of the endless buses leaving from to go to the stadium from Monchengladbachs Train station. It was about a ten minute ride and we only had to wait a few minutes to get on a bus. The bus was filled with beer drinking fans chanting and singing.The whole experience was great and also different from the fact that visiting clubs fans a seperated into their own small area. If you are American and have chance to see them or any Euro football club , just go and experience it for yourself.
Went to see Limosol in the Europa League, the Germans do atmosphere and theatre all in one to make football a bit special, BM are a good side, go and see them, it's a great stadium, worth going. Get the free bus from behind the railway station in Monchengladbach
For the second time I had the privilege to come to this German football mecca and it was even better than my expectations. A really nice and sold out stadium, a warm September evening, a perfectly green natural grass pitch and a wonderful game with lots of goals and chances as well as happy cheering friendly supporters. It could not be better. Compliments for the excellent infrastructure around the game, especially the rapid bus transfers from downtown to the stadium as well as back. Having the transfer tickets included in the game tickets is more than wise, other countries should see and learn! The only negative thing here is that the city of Mönchengladbach itself is not really anything to remember but tgat does not matter, its' genuine football tradition is good enough.
Tjah, jeg skriver en kort anmeldelse på dansk, da jeg besøgte nogle tyske Borussia-Mönchengladbach fans, der gerne ville vise mig holdets hjemmebane. Jeg fik således set et tomt stadion men kunne godt se, at forholdene her var noget større end på Randers stadion :-)
