Witness world-class events at the MEWA Arena! Positioned in the historic Rhine valley in Mainz, the arena represents a cutting-edge combination of German cultural tradition and modern urban development. The 34,000-seat facility is principally the home of the footballers of FSV Mainz 05, who left long-time residence in 2011 at the now-demolished Stadion am Bruchweg. Mainz's fans engage in easy-going, good-natured banter with visiting supporters as they enjoy first-rate onsite viewing conditions delivered by the arena's four-stand concept. The design brings spectators close to the action while supporting high-spec audio and visual systems that elevate both sporting and concert experiences. These modern, consumer-focused amenities — paired with robust security and transaction protections — create an environment focused on authenticity, convenience, and memorable participation for every attendee.
100% Authentic Tickets with Buyer Protection
Ticombo enforces strong security and verification measures across its ticketing ecosystem. The platform combines bank-level encryption, real-time fraud detection algorithms, and a dual-layer verification approach that mixes digital and physical checks to protect buyers. Once a ticket is confirmed, it is delivered either as a digital QR code or as a physical ticket according to the purchaser's preference; the delivery step is designed to ensure the ticket presented at the gate can be authenticated quickly and reliably. These systems work together to reduce the risk of counterfeit tickets and to streamline entry on event day.
FSV Mainz 05 moved to the new four-stand facility in 2011, leaving the Stadion am Bruchweg behind. Since then the arena has functioned as a modern home for the club and a multipurpose venue for a wide range of sporting and cultural events. The design and layout prioritize spectator proximity and audiovisual quality, contributing to the venue's reputation as a modern, fan-centered facility.
