Fans in the Stands – Organizations

 
Our Fans in the Stands create an atmosphere that helps our athletes reach new heights.
 
 
Registration is already closed.

 
How does it work?

  • Gather colleagues, teammates, or community members to build a group of 10 or more people. 
  • One person - the Team Captain - registers your group for Fans in the Stands and together we will find the fitting competition for you to watch and support. 
  • Team members of every age are warmly welcome. 
  • The Team Captain will be the main point of contact between your fan team and us and will receive all relevant information for your visit leading up to the Games.

Additional information

 
When registering, you can choose a sport and a day which you would prefer to visit. But we cannot guarantee the availability of the sports automatically. Our team will get back to you after your registration and confirm or rearrange your visit slot.

Please note: A fan team can just visit the Games for free once. Different teams from the same organization (e.g., the women's soccer team and the men's soccer team from the same sport club) are allowed to visit respectively (also on different days).
If you would like to visit the Games on more than one day, we therefore kindly ask you to purchase tickets in our ticketshop.
