Overview
- Union expects its final home match in Köpenick in May 2027 and plans to return for the first home game of the 2028/29 season.
- The expanded stadium is set for 34,500 capacity with 12,000 seats and 22,500 standing places, with the entire Wald side and the lower tier designated for standing after talks with supporter groups.
- The capacity was cut from an originally planned 40,500 because the traffic concept was not approved, with the larger target retained for a later phase when infrastructure allows.
- Union and the Olympiastadion have agreed on use for 2027/28, with the parties now preparing the necessary contracts.
- The club will add a €1–€2 per-ticket surcharge during the reduced-capacity period to offset lost revenue.
