Schalke's high-tech arena with retractable roof and slide-out pitch.
Where to sit
Best value
Lower-tier corners usually price well below the seats along the side, with most of the view.
For sports
Side seats near the halfway line, rows 10–30 of the lower tier.
For concerts
Floor center or lower-tier side sections facing the stage. Check whether the stage blocks rear sections — marketplaces mark restricted views.
Budget play
Upper-tier center often beats lower-tier seats behind the goal for the view per price.
