FC Heidenheim comes to Salach: start of the 750th anniversary celebrations!

On Sunday, July 6th, the time has come: Bundesliga promoted team 1. FC Heidenheim will play a friendly against TSG Salach as part of the town's 750th anniversary celebrations. Kick-off is at 3:30 p.m. and the event is organized by Mayor Dennis Eberle and former Mayor Bernhard Ilg. The event promises to be a special highlight for football fans and the community of Salach.

Advance ticket sales will start shortly. The prices are family-friendly: young people up to 14 years old only pay 5 euros, while adults have to pay 13 euros for a place in the stadium. The TSG Salach website provides information about the options for purchasing tickets, where the tickets are available in local outlets such as the Café Edinger, the Dölker bookstore, the Markplatz-Lädle, the TSG office and in the town hall.

Event details and arrival

On match day, the stadium opens its gates at 1 p.m. TSG Salach has prepared everything, including an autograph session with FC Heidenheim players and a fan shop offering, among other things, match day scarves. Due to limited parking, visitors are encouraged to carpool or consider alternative travel options.

This is a rare opportunity for football fans to experience 1. FC Heidenheim and their path to the Bundesliga up close. The club has developed rapidly since its promotion in May 2023. From 3,000 members in March, the number rose to over 9,000 by November 2023. The high demand is also reflected in the quick availability of 9,000 season tickets. The stadium, the Voith Arena, has a capacity of 15,000 spectators, but is the smallest arena in the Bundesliga and requires special permits for official games.

Ticket prices and market overview

The average ticket prices for the Bundesliga at this time are 0.00 euros, which reflects the unconventional pricing. Standing room tickets cost 17 euros in advance and are one of the more expensive options in the 2024/25 Bundesliga season. There are additional options for fans who have to resort to the secondary market, but these are often associated with higher prices and certain risks.

The Voith Arena opened in 1972, and the last major expansions took place between 2012 and 2014. An expansion of 10,000 seats to a total of 25,000 is planned in order to meet the ever-growing requirements. These developments are a clear indication of the ambitious future of the club, which was only founded in 2007.
