TSG Hoffenheim fans bring energy to the PreZero Arena with chants that celebrate the club’s spirit, unity and pride. From songs of encouragement to rhythmic clapping and call-and-response chants, supporters create a passionate atmosphere that drives the team forward.

These chants are simple, repetitive and powerful, ensuring everyone in the stands can join in.

The following are some popular TSG chants:

  • Forza TSG
  • TSG! TSG! TSG!
  • Steht auf wenn ihr Hoffe seid
  • Wir sind Hoffenheim

The stadium is known by traditional fans as the Rhein-Neckar-Arena and has been open since 24 January 2009. The cost of the stadium construction was €60 million, and the architects were Eheim Moebel and Sattler Europe.

Hoffenheim play their home matches at the PreZero Arena, as they were forced out of their old stadium, the Dietmar-Hopp-Stadion. The 6,350-capacity ground did not meet the Bundesliga stadium requirements, meaning Hoffenheim’s promotion to the first division in 2009 saw them move to the PreZero Arena.

There have been two main sponsors that have gained naming rights to the stadium. From 2011 to 2019, the stadium was called Wirsol Rhein-Neckar-Arena, which changed to the PreZero Arena in 2019.

Given that Sinsheim is a small town, and the stadium is located away from the centre, there are not loads of bars and restaurants to choose from. The best pubs are a 20-30 minute drive to the stadium, including 1st Pub, Sharkeys Deluxe and Palmbräu Gasse.

The stadium is close to a motorway retail park that offers a variety of fast-food options. This includes McDonald’s, Burger King and Subway as well as Asia City China-Restaurant, Restaurant Fandango and Pizza Kings Heimservice.

At PreZero Arena, home of TSG Hoffenheim, matchdays are not just about food but also about everything traditional German stadium fare. Fans can find hearty options like bratwurst, currywurst, pretzels, and schnitzel sandwiches, alongside vegetarian choices to cater to wider tastes.

Beer is a central part of the experience, with regional brews available on tap, complemented by soft drinks and non-alcoholic options. The arena is also cashless, making food and drink purchases quicker and more convenient for supporters.

If you are planning to use public transport to reach the stadium, there are two rail stations near the ground. The first is the main rail station in Sinsheim, which is just under half an hour’s walk. Alternatively, you can stop at the Sinsheim Museum/Arena, which is a 15-minute walk to the stadium. Hoffenheim states on their website that, as well as the normal trains, Deutsche Bahn organises relief trains for fans on matchdays.

A shuttle bus service operates in both directions from the bus station Sinsheim Hauptbahhof (Elsenz) and the PreZero Arena (Sinsheim-Süd business park, Am Hummelberg). Tickets for matches at the PreZero Arena give fans travel eligibility on buses, trams and trains on the Rhein-Neckar transport association (VRN) and the Heilbronner/Hohehloher/Haller Nahverkehrs GmbH (HNV).

The PreZero Arena is located near the A6 motorway, and fans are advised to take exit 33b Sinsheim- Süd. There are many parking options near the stadium, including the Freibad car park (Schwimmbadweg), which offers free parking spaces and is located near the main Sinsheim train station. The Dr-Sieber Halle car park is also an option on matchdays, which is free before 2pm on Saturdays and €1 an hour after 2pm.

Spectators can park in public parking spaces at the stadium (P9-P11) and along Neulandstrasse (P12 to P15) on matchday.

Hoffenheim have an in-depth overview of how fans can travel to the stadium on matchday on their website. You can find this information here.

Visually impaired fans are given nine places with an additional nine spots for the accompanying person at the same price as fans in the wheelchair spaces. As well as this, there are 12 places in Block N for deaf fans.

The PreZero Arena also has four barrier-free toilets in the stadium, as well as two toilets in front of the stadium.

With a disabled person’s ID card bearing the mark “aG”, disabled parking is accessible at the stadium.

There is an in-depth guide to the disability access and facilities here.

Matchday tickets during the 2025/26 season can be purchased at the stadium in the Ticket Shop or on the Hoffenheim website.

Tickets go on sale to TSG Hoffenheim members before going on a general sale if the game hasn’t sold out. There are six price categories for every home game, with the cheapest tickets available for €20 and the most expensive seats costing €44. There are standing areas also available for €14.

The number of tickets fans can buy for a single game depends on the opposition. For games against high-profile opposition such as Bayern Munich, fans can buy two tickets. However, for other league and cup games, fans can buy eight tickets.

You can find this information and purchase tickets here on Hoffenheim’s club website.
