Police from the federal level present at the Hannover 96 and 1. FC Magdeburg football match, overseen by BPOLI MD.
The much-anticipated 2nd Bundesliga football match between Hannover 96 and 1. FC Magdeburg is scheduled for August 23, 2025, at the Heinz von Heiden Arena. With numerous fans expected to attend, the Federal Police have issued travel advice for those arriving from Magdeburg by train.
For fans travelling from Magdeburg, the Federal Police Magdeburg recommends a specific travel route for public transport by train, via Braunschweig, or alternatively, from Halberstadt to Goslar, and then to Hannover. Another suggested route is from Stendal to Wolfsburg, followed by a journey to Hannover.
Upon arrival at Hannover Central Station, fans from Magdeburg are advised to switch to the S-Bahn at platform 1. Lines S1, S2, or S5 depart from this platform, heading towards Hannover Linden/Fischerhof station, which is within a short walking distance from the stadium.
Fans from Magdeburg will primarily enter the Heinz von Heiden Arena via the southern area. For Hannover 96 supporters travelling by train, it is recommended to switch to the ÜSTRA city trains at the central station.
The increased usage of trains on the mentioned routes will occur during the match, so the Federal Police Magdeburg will observe and possibly control the railway lines at Hannover main station. The Federal Police Inspectorate Hannover will be deployed in strength to ensure public safety and order on train facilities and trains.
The Federal Police asks all train users to consider these hints for their own planning. For further questions, contact Federal Police Inspectorate Magdeburg via email at [email protected] or visit their website at www.bundespolizei.de.
It's important to note that the same route recommendations apply for the return journey. Any necessary police measures may arise due to these travel recommendations. The Federal Police encourages all fans to travel safely and enjoy the exciting match between Hannover 96 and 1. FC Magdeburg.
