TICKETS GO AHEAD EAGLES VS PEC ZWOLLE

De Adelaarshorst Go Ahead is a stadium with a distinct old-school charm and a strong connection to Go Ahead Eagles. Opened in 1920, it keeps an intimate, compact bowl that puts spectators close to the pitch, so the action feels immediate from every stand. With a capacity of around 10,400 seats, it’s a venue where atmosphere comes from voices and rhythms on the terraces rather than sheer size.

Inside, the matchday experience is what fans love most: clear sightlines, a tight acoustic that amplifies chants, and modern essentials that make the visit comfortable — from food and drink kiosks to club points for merch and souvenirs, all while staying right in the heart of the event. That blend of tradition and practicality makes it a great pick for visitors looking for an authentic Dutch football feel.

The micro-location is easy to pin down: Vetkampstraat 1, 7416 WK Deventer, Netherlands. On event days, simply follow the signage to the entrances around the stands; there are nearby parking areas and access streets, and the closest bus stops are just a short walk away.

When you’re not at the event, Deventer delivers an excellent sightseeing “bonus.” Start at Brink square, one of the city’s liveliest spots, then wander through historic streets toward the Bergkwartier and the impressive Lebuinuskerk, which defines the old town skyline. The riverside walk along the IJssel is perfect for a calm moment before a concert or to unwind after a match, and the narrow lanes, passageways, and small squares give the city that authentic Dutch feel that stays with you.
