RheinEnergieStadion is a major football stadium in Cologne, Germany, used primarily for professional football and large-scale events. It is the regular home ground of 1. FC Köln and is one of the city’s principal sports venues.

The stadium accommodates roughly 50,000 spectators and is also used for concerts and occasional large events beyond sport. Modern facilities, corporate boxes and hospitality areas support national and international fixtures.

Originally developed on the site in the 20th century, the stadium complex has been renovated and modernised to meet contemporary safety and comfort standards and to support major sporting fixtures.

The ground sits in the Müngersdorf sports district to the west of central Cologne and is accessible by road and public transport links that serve the city’s western suburbs.

• Capacity and home club: Seating capacity is approximately 50,000, and the venue is the home stadium of the professional football club 1. FC Köln.
• Location and transport: Located in the Müngersdorf district, the stadium is roughly 5-7 kilometres west of Cologne’s city centre and is served by local public transport on match days.

The stadium is served by Köln Messe/Deutz (regional trains, S-Bahn) with local buses and tram connections. On match days special shuttle services operate; driving is possible but limited parking makes public transit preferable.

• Use the nearby Köln Messe/Deutz station (S-Bahn and regional trains) for good public-transit access; avoid driving when possible on match days.
