View of Stadion De Vijverberg

Below is a seating plan of De Graafschap's Stadion De Vijverberg:

Away fans are housed within sections 13 and 14 of the easternmost part of the south stand, surrounded by home supporters either side.

Accessible from the south-west corner where the main stand is (The triangle which sticks out), views of the pitch are generally good but slightly restricted by the support beams.

The club shop at De Vijverberg is located next to the main entrance and is usually open for up to one hour before kick-off and one hour after the full time whistle.

De Graafschap’s online store is however open 24/7 and is probably an easier way to browse the official merchandise.

Tours of the facilities at De Vijverberg stadion are arranged on an individual basis and subsequently don’t follow a set timetable or schedule.

The official website advises you to call the stadium manager on (0314) 36 84 50 or alternatively send an email to [email protected] to arrange.

Tickets to see De Graafschap play at home can be purchased through the usual channels including online and in person from the ticket office at the stadion in the days leading up to the match.
