Hertha Berlin Tickets: A 4-Step Guide

Hertha BSC and 1. FC Union Berlin both sell match tickets online, and the steps below compare how each club works.

Step 1: Pick the club and the match

Hertha BSC plays at the Olympiastadion, which has 73,779 seats, so it is the bigger and more famous ground. Union Berlin plays at the Stadion An der Alten Försterei in Köpenick, in the south-east, and the club's own website lists its ticket portal.

Check the match date first. Hertha's home page lists its next home games with kick-off times, for example a Saturday 12:00 game and a Saturday 19:30 game. Union's shop lists the men's team under its own tab, next to the women's team and stadium tours.

Pick Hertha for a big stadium with a running track around the pitch. Pick Union for a smaller club ground. You do not need a tour for either match, because you buy the ticket and ride the train yourself. A tour only fits the hours before or after the game.

Key Takeaway Hertha plays in the 73,779-seat Olympiastadion in the west, and Union plays at the Alte Försterei in the south-east, so your choice also decides which side of Berlin you ride to.

Step 2: Buy Hertha Berlin tickets in the club's own shop

Hertha Berlin tickets are sold in the club's online ticket shop. The Hertha BSC website links to it as "Ticketshop" in the header and the footer, and each home match has its own link.

Union Berlin tickets are sold in a separate portal that the Union website links as "Tickets". The portal accepts Visa, Mastercard, PayPal, Apple Pay and Google Pay, among others.

Hertha does not publish a price list on its home page, so ticket prices depend on the match and the seat. You see the price only after you open a match in the shop. The Hertha home page also shows that some games open first to members only, so check the sale for your match early. Union does not say on its pages how fast matches sell out. Open the shop for your match to see seats and prices. Do not buy from a stranger on social media.

Pro Tip Open both shops on the same day and compare two matches that fall on your dates, because Hertha and Union often play at different times.

An honest limit: this guide cannot tell you if a match is sold out today. Only the club's shop shows that.

Step 3: Get to the stadium by S-Bahn or U-Bahn

For Hertha, ride the U2 to Olympia-Stadion or the S3 or S9 to Olympiastadion. The stadium's directions page gives about 13 minutes on the U2 from Zoologischer Garten, and about 26 minutes on the S-Bahn from Alexanderplatz. The S-Bahn gate is about 250 metres from the East Gate. The U2 station is about 500 metres away.

For Union, take the S3 towards Erkner to Köpenick station. Union's own directions say the walk along the railway embankment takes about 15 minutes. From Schöneweide, tram 60 or 67 stops at "Alte Försterei" right at the ground.

Both grounds lie inside Berlin, so an AB ticket works. A single costs €4 and lasts two hours, according to the City of Berlin. Stamp paper tickets before you ride. Our guide to getting around Berlin explains the zones.

The best seat in a football stadium is the one you reach without stress.

Step 4: Plan the evening after the match

The match is only part of the day, and the city has a lot of pubs and beer halls. Berlin has nightlife in Berlin for every taste,.

Of the 352 Berlin experiences listed on GetYourGuide on 27 October 2026, The Best Travel Destinations' count found 17 beer, brewery or pub tours, with a median "from" price of about €62 per person.

Is a tour worth it? For the match itself, no: buy your own ticket and ride the train. For the hours around it, a tour saves you from picking pubs yourself.

For an early kick-off, the Beers and Battlefields tour is a 3.5 hour English tour from €69 per person, run by Birchy's Berlin Tours. It meets at Ebertstraße 24, takes up to 12 people and does not include food, tips or transport to the start. For a short tasting, the Mampe schnapps tour takes 45 minutes and costs from €12 per person. It meets at Am Tempelhofer Berg 6, takes up to 20 people and does not include tips. After an evening game, the historic pubs tour takes 4 hours and costs from €74 per person. It meets at Karl-Liebknecht-Str. 8, takes up to 11 people and does not include meals or hotel pickup. None of the three offers pickup, and none includes match tickets.
