Yes. The 24,000 square metres of artificial turf were specially developed for the event and are correspondingly hard-wearing.

No,  The turf is produced in a CO2-reduced or climate-neutral way, is 100% recyclable and will remain in Berlin - an after-use concept envisages distributing the turf to football pitches, sports facilities and other locations throughout the city. Current plans include pitches in Mitte, KITA courtyards in Marzahn-Hellersdorf, school playgrounds in Reinickendorf and Treptow-Köpenick, sports facilities at Tegel Prison and a football pitch initiative with Hertha.

Which projects Berlin spends money on is a political decision. The organisation of host city events such as the fan zone at the Brandenburg Gate is only a small part of the total costs that Berlin is spending on hosting UEFA EURO 2024. There are also costs for security, but also many infrastructural improvements for the city, such as more drinking fountains or the expansion of the Olympiastadion Berlin, for example with regard to accessibility or better Wi-Fi.

UEFA EURO 2024 is an event organised by UEFA, which is also responsible for ticket sales and the sale of merchandise. The city of Berlin will benefit from guests booking hotel accommodation, shopping in restaurants and booking tickets for cultural events during their visit to the UEFA EURO 2024. 

There are 74,475 seats in the Olympiastadion, 38,020 of which are in the lower ring and 36,455 in the upper ring. 
Catering is available at 12 kiosks each in the lower ring and upper ring, as well as in mobile kiosks in the outdoor area.

The Olympiastadion Berlin is located in the west of the city in the Charlottenburg-Wilmersdorf district. You can easily reach the Olympiastadion by public transport. It is only a short walk from the railway stations to the entrances.

• U2 to U-Bahn station Olympia-Stadion (Osttor entrance: 500 metres on foot, Südtor entrance: 870 metres on foot)
• S3 and S8 to S-Bahn station Olympiastadion (Südtor entrance via Flatowallee exit: 200 metres, Osttor entrance via Trakehnern Allee exit: 250 metres)
• Bus lines M49 and M218 to the Flatowallee stop 

You need to plan around 45 minutes for the journey by public transport between the Fan Zone Brandenburger Tor and the Olympiastadion. The S-Bahn lines S3 and S9 as well as the U-Bahn line U2 will take you directly to the stadium.

In principle, the Olympiastadion Berlin is barrier-free and also accessible for people with limited mobility. However, unrestricted mobility is not always possible within the blocks, as some areas are only accessible via stairs.
There are currently 170 spaces for wheelchair users in the walkway between the upper and lower tiers, and there are four accessible toilets on the same level.
For the UEFA EURO 2024, the Olympiastadion Berlin will be made even more accessible. New wheelchair spaces are to be created in almost all of the stands by the start of the games, with a total increase of 36 per cent. There will also be hundreds of new seats for people with physical disabilities. These are wider or have special padding, for example. 

For the blind and visually impaired, there are 50 seats in Block P with match commentary via headphones.
