Tickets for Groningen vs Excelsior Rotterdam in Groningen - May 2, 2026

Euroborg is more than a stadium—it’s a modern landmark built for big match nights and major live shows. With its compact, contemporary design, it’s the home of FC Groningen and widely known among fans as the “Green Cathedral”. Seating around 22,500 spectators, Euroborg balances scale and intimacy, keeping the atmosphere intense and close to the action.

Inside, the experience is defined by steep, near-to-the-field stands that deliver strong sightlines and a punchy acoustic feel. Visitors appreciate the smooth flow of concourses, comfortable seating, and a solid range of food and drink options that keep the night moving without unnecessary hassle.

You’ll find the venue at Boumaboulevard 41, Groningen, Netherlands. For the easiest approach, head for Groningen Europapark, just a short walk from the entrances, or drive in and use the nearby parking areas (P3) around the stadium.

Groningen, a lively university hub in the north of the Netherlands, blends relaxed Dutch charm with a strong nightlife culture and top-tier events. The city is known for an energy you can feel in the streets, where crowds follow major sports spectacles with the same passion as big concert nights. Thanks to a compact centre and clearly organised city logistics, getting to venues such as Martiniplaza, concert spaces like De Oosterpoort or the Euroborg stadium is usually straightforward and stress-free.

What makes Groningen especially practical for visitors is its connectivity and easy navigation. City buses operated by Qbuzz cover the key areas, while rail links rely on Nederlandse Spoorwegen (NS) and Arriva, with clear transfers and a solid service rhythm. The main railway station, Hoofdstation Groningen, is the natural starting point for arrival and moving around, and for quick air access there is Groningen Airport Eelde. Another major plus is how “bike-friendly” the city is, with many locations just a short ride or a pleasant walk away.

If you’re coming for a match or a concert, it pays to set aside time for the city’s atmosphere before or after the event. Stroll across Grote Markt and experience the city’s heart beneath the Martinitoren, dive into modern architecture and exhibitions at the Groninger Museum, or unwind among the greenery and ponds of Noorderplantsoen. The streets of the old centre, canals and café terraces can easily turn one evening event into a complete city experience—orderly, welcoming and full of life.
