Every year, the club hosts a special event on Christmas called "Weihnachtssingen” (Christmas singing).

With every year there were more people joining in on the event, nowadays the stadium is completely full during this event. A happening that will give you goosebumps for sure! Even fans from other clubs join in on the breathtaking event on the 23rd of December. Make sure you book your tickets early in advance.
