About stadiumEintracht Frankfurt’s stadium first opened in 1925 and today’s Commerzbank-Arena is effectively the fourth iteration of the Waldstadion (Forest Stadium). The original ground consisted of wooden stands which were capable of housing 35,00 spectators and the inaugural match was held between FSV Frankfurt and FC Nürnberg which the away team winning by 1 goal to nil. As football began to grow in popularity following the Second World War, the local council decided to renovate the stadium, prompted by a near stadium disaster in 1953 when 70,000 tickets were sold for a designated crowd of 55,000 which resulted in over a thousand fans injured. The second redevelopment of Walstadion in the 1970s was prompted by the hosting of 1974 World Cup and the new stadium, practically built again from the ground up hosted the opening ceremony and five group matches. The 1980s and 1990s saw The Walstadion be used more regularly for Athletics events and Concerts, with Frankfurt’s home ground once again receiving investment for the Fifa World Cup in 2006. Commerzbank-Arena as the new stadium is known by was built over a 3 year period from 2002 to 2005 and the 51,500 capacity ranks it within the top 10 largest stadiums in Germany. Today the Commerzbank is a pure footballing stadium although it still hosts American Football, and Bruce Springsteen concerts and the occasional boxing match of Wladimir Klitschko. The name changed agreed with Commerzbank AG in 2005 on a 10 year deal was seen as a controversial move but one that ultimately makes financial sense – €30 million euros of sense that is.
