Eintracht Frankfurt to Enforce Wristband and Sensor Traffic-Light Entry at Nordwestkurve

Club guidelines cover wristband issuance, re-entry protocols, possible upper-tier redirection, highlighting the risk of longer queues.

Overview

  • The club will debut its combined wristband and sensor-based Ampelsystem on 23 August at the Bundesliga opener against Werder Bremen.
  • Fans with Unterrang season tickets must collect wristbands after passing designated turnstiles and present them with the correct color, day marking and wearing style to gain access.
  • A sensor count will trigger a red light once capacity is reached, diverting new arrivals to the Oberrang and requiring exit cards for anyone seeking re-entry.
  • Manipulated or swapped wristbands will be treated as an offense, with sanctions ranging from ejection to stadium bans or loss of season tickets.
  • Supporter forums warn that late arrivals risk denial of entry and that those exiting during a yellow phase could be blocked from returning, fueling concerns over admission delays and fan experience.
