Signal Iduna Park

The Sudtribune is Europe's largest standing terrace at 25,000; the Yellow Wall is the defining image of German fan culture.

Signal Iduna Park has been the home of Borussia Dortmund since 1974, and holds 81,365 spectators for football. The playing surface is grass, and the record attendance of 83,000 was set in a fixture that still gets talked about in Dortmund.

For a matchday, the ground sits in Dortmund and is served by local rail and bus routes; arriving 45 minutes before kick-off is the difference between a queue and a seat. Away supporters are usually housed in one corner block, and the atmosphere is loudest behind the goal at the home end.
