Where the Decisive Goals are Scored: Ernst Happel Stadium

On June 29, 2008, the Ernst Happel Stadium in Vienna will be the center of international soccer. During the final game of the UEFA EURO 2008, the new European soccer champion will be decided.

For EURO 2008, the seating capacity will be increased to 51,000. The field has been equipped with new lawn heating, and two ultra-modern video walls have been installed. A media center of 1,600 square meters for TV teams and other media has been installed under the stands and there are four new panorama interview boxes for television.

For events, the new air-conditioned VIP club for 900 persons is available. With an electronic access control system, video surveillance, and two security rings, the safety arrangements of the Ernst Happel Stadium have been optimized.
