Do I need to reserve in advance?

Reservations are handled by the organiser of the specific event; for sporting events it is best to request reserved wheelchair spaces in the stand in advance.

When is it busy and when is it quiet?

How busy it is depends entirely on the event; trade fairs and concerts see peaks around opening and closing times.

What should wheelchair users be aware of?

The whole complex is on one level and step-free, so there are few limitations; large events can make the walkways crowded, however.

What visit tip do you recommend?

The spacious car park with accessible-parking spaces lies right by the entrances; at large events, ask a steward to guide you to your seat.
