Ernst-Happel-Stadion Seating Map

50,865 for football, making it the largest stadium in Austria.

The upper tier's side sections, in sectors B and E, are generally the best-value seats: covered, panoramic and priced below the lower and middle tiers.

The stadium was built in 1931 as a multi-purpose athletics arena, and the track was retained through its Euro 2008 modernisation. It keeps the front rows further from the pitch than at football-specific stadiums.

Visiting supporters are allocated sectors A and F, behind the goal opposite the home end, when segregation applies.

Yes. The stands have been covered since the stadium's full renovation in 1986.

The Euro 2008 renovation added electronic access control and a dedicated lift to the VIP area; contact the ticketing operator for your specific event for wheelchair and companion seating arrangements, as these vary by event.

Yes. A climate-controlled VIP club seating 900 people, added during the Euro 2008 renovation, is reached by its own private lift.

The City of Vienna lists concert capacity as around 35,000 seats plus up to 19,000 standing on the pitch; Wikipedia gives an expanded capacity of up to 68,500 for a centre-stage setup. Configuration and stage position vary by event. For specific sections, aim for Lower or middle tier of sectors B and E, facing the stage — Side-stand seats closest to the pitch give the clearest sightline to an end-stage show under cover.
