The ground

Originally the Zentralstadion, rebuilt inside the old earth bowl for the 2006 World Cup; Leipzig moved in in 2010.

Red Bull Arena has been the home of RB Leipzig since 1956, and holds 47,069 spectators for football. The playing surface is grass, and the record attendance of 44,500 was set in a fixture that still gets talked about in Leipzig.

For a matchday, the ground sits in Leipzig 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.
