Treat the ticket as the hard part
Union says men's home tickets are allocated among members by lottery because demand exceeds capacity. The official ticket office and official resale market are the safe routes, but neither guarantees access.
Confirm the venue before travelling
The Stadion An der Alten Försterei is reached through Köpenick by S-Bahn, tram and a woodland walk. Planned redevelopment can change the active venue or approach, so verify the exact fixture notice.
Keep Berlin bookings refundable
Berlin offers many alternative matches and activities if Union access fails. Do not make the entire weekend depend on a lottery result that has not arrived.
Ticket access
Very difficult
Union states that men's home tickets are allocated among club members by lottery. Demand exceeds the available places, so membership or the official resale market does not guarantee a ticket.
