About this venue
Wohninvest Weserstadion is one of northern Germany’s most distinctive stadiums, famous for its riverside setting on the Weser and a compact bowl that keeps the crowd close to the pitch. As the long-time home of SV Werder Bremen, it delivers a matchday atmosphere that feels immediate and intense, while also working brilliantly for major live shows. With a capacity of around 42,100, the venue balances tradition with modernised infrastructure, giving it a classic identity with up-to-date comfort.
Inside, the experience is built for visibility and sound: sightlines are strong from most sections, the stands amplify chants quickly, and the lighting and audio create a full-scale concert feel when the pitch becomes a stage. Expect multiple food-and-drink kiosks, well-managed entry points, clear wayfinding, and amenities that make pre-event time and halftime smoother.
You’ll find it at Franz-Böhmert-Straße 1c, Bremen, Germany. The stadium sits by green riverside paths, and on event days entrances are clearly signposted so you can reach your sector without guesswork. The nearby tram stop “Bremen WESERSTADION” is a convenient option that brings you close to the gates, while drivers typically use official and public parking areas around the venue (arriving early helps).

About the city
Bremen, a proud Hanseatic city on the River Weser, is not only known for its history and old-town charm, but also as one of northern Germany’s most comfortable destinations for top-tier sports and music events. The city has a relaxed pace yet a strong buzz when it comes to major concerts, matches, and shows, so visitors often pair an evening event with a short city break.
A key advantage of Bremen is its excellent transport connectivity. Local mobility relies on the tram and bus network operated by BSAG (Bremer Straßenbahn AG), while regional links are complemented by Regio-S-Bahn Bremen/Niedersachsen. If you arrive by train, Bremen Hauptbahnhof is the main starting point for getting to arenas and stadiums, and Flughafen Bremen is a convenient option for flying in, with a quick connection to the city centre and the main station (tram line 6). Thanks to the city’s clear layout, reaching key venues such as Weserstadion or ÖVB Arena is usually straightforward and stress-free.
When you come for an event, it’s worth adding a small tourist bonus. Stroll across Marktplatz and take in the monumental Rathaus and Roland, part of UNESCO heritage, then wander into Schnoor, the oldest district with narrow lanes and houses that preserve a medieval feel. For a different vibe, head to Böttcherstraße, a short but striking street known for architecture and culture, and for riverside downtime choose Weserpromenade Schlachte, the promenade along the water with plenty of spots to pause before or after a concert.
Bremen also strikes a strong balance between practicality and experience: accommodation is varied, from central hotels to quieter options in surrounding neighbourhoods, and the food scene fits almost any budget. The city is easy to navigate on foot, and its mix of order and culture often makes it a great choice for travellers who want to get the most out of their trip around the ticket and the event itself.
