A WARM IN NRW

From game to game
with mobil.nrw

The European Football Championship will take place in Germany from 14 June to 14 July 2024; four of the host cities are located in NRW – we say: Nice to move you! Because travelling to the stadiums and fan zones in Cologne, Düsseldorf, Dortmund und Gelsenkirchen by bus and train is sustainable and safe. All information on how to get to EURO 2024 in NRW can be found here.

Additional train line takes you almost into the stadium

Numerous special transport services for the EURO 2024 have been set up to enable you to get to the games as fast and easily as possible. There is also an additional train line (EM-RE24) connecting all of the host cities in NRW.

The additional train line will operate from 14 June to 14 July 2024 and stop at these stations: Köln Hbf (central railway station), Köln Messe/Deutz, Düsseldorf Hbf, Duisburg Hbf, Oberhausen Hbf, Essen-Altenessen, Gelsenkirchen Hbf, Wanne-Eickel Hbf, Herne, Castrop-Rauxel Hbf, Dortmund-Mengede, Dortmund Hbf. The same timetable is valid on all days of the week, with hourly departures in each direction from approx. 9:30 a.m. to 1:20 a.m. Please check our timetable information for the exact times of the additional train line.

Please note: Due to construction work, the EM-RE24 will not stop in Herne, Castrop-Rauxel Hbf and Dortmund-Mengede until 30 June.

Your ticket through NRW

With your ticket for the EURO 2024 matches, you can activate a free 36-hour ticket for local public transport via the Fan Pass in the EURO 2024 app: From 6 a.m. on match day until 6 p.m. on the day after the match, this fan ticket is valid as a ticket in the Transportation Association Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Ruhr (VRR) and Verkehrsverbund Rhein-Sieg (VRS). Please note: Your ticket for the stadium is NOT valid as a public transport ticket, you can only get this via the official UEFA app.

If you wish to travel through NRW outside of these times, you can either use eezy.nrw, an “NRW-Tarif” ticket or the Deutschlandticket – regardless of whether you are getting around by bus, tram, urban and underground trains or on local passenger trains (S-Bahn, Regionalbahn, Regionalexpress). The tickets are not valid on ICE and IC/EC trains. As a general rule: Children under 6 years of age travel for free; children aged 6 up to and including 14 years pay half price.

eezy.nrw

Relaxed and cash-free mobility: The electronic ticketing system eezy.nrw enables you to simply set off without having to worry about tickets or rates. All you need is a smartphone and the mobil.nrw app. You check into the app when boarding and check out again when you get off – the price is calculated based on the number of kilometers travelled as the crow flies and automatically debited in the app.

Tickets "NRW-TARIF"

Do you just need a ticket quickly for one journey? Or are you out and about with a group and want to share a ticket for the whole day? Whatever the case: You will find the right ticket to suit any occasion in the “NRW-Tarif”. You can purchase all tickets either in the mobil.nrw app or from a ticket machine.

Deutschlandticket

The Deutschlandticket (Germany Ticket) is available for journeys within and outside of NRW: You pay 49 euros per month and this ticket allows you to use local public transport all over Germany. The ticket is offered as a subscription, and it can be cancelled on a monthly basis – you can buy it either via the app or in customer service centers of the transport companies.
