🎟️ Ticket helper
Mainz
€17–€76adult, official price, standard league game
✅ Open sale
When: Members and season-ticket holders get a presale (about 3-4 weeks before the match), then 'Bestandskunden'/11ER holders, then general sale about 10 days later; the Bayern game (price list 1) showed no general-sale date, so the biggest games may sell out before reaching general sale.
Official 2026/27 Bundesliga day-ticket PDF: adult normal price standing (cat. 7) EUR 17, seats EUR 27-49 (price list 3), EUR 37-62 (PL 2), EUR 41-76 (PL 1); 'Komfort' seats EUR 79-99. Opponent decides the price list (e.g. Bayern = PL 1, Union/Freiburg = PL 3).

Worked out from this club's usual pattern as it is stated above. Clubs change the dates, so treat these as a prompt to check the official page, not a promise.
📅 Add Mainz's games and sale reminders to your calendar (a feed that updates itself).
The labels: ✅ Open sale = ordinary league games reach general sale · 🟡 Rules vary = members go first, some games reach general sale · 💳 Members only = a club card or membership is effectively needed · 🪪 = named tickets. They describe the club's usual league games, not one particular match: derbies and big games can be much harder.
Only buy from the club or its official partners. Unofficial resale sites charge far more and tickets can be cancelled at the gate. Prices are a guide and change by opponent; the club's site has the real price.
