To ensure the safety of all visitors, additional safety and prevention measures are required. We therefore ask for your support and understanding that longer waiting times at the entrance may be unavoidable due to increased controls and call on you to arrive at the venue early.
Please leave backpacks and handbags larger than A4 as well as larger items of all kinds (e.g. umbrellas) at home or in your car. If this is unavoidable, we ask you to hand in your items for storage in front of the Uber Arena (6 EUR per item) or lock them in the lockers at Ostbahnhof.
