On Monday evening, 1. FC Union Berlin invite their members and family to the traditional Christmas sing-along at the Stadion An der Alten Försterei.

To ensure that the evening is a peaceful one, all guests are asked to observe the following rules:

• We kindly ask you to arrive on time by public transport, as there are hardly any parking spaces available in the stadium area. The stadium opens at 17:00.
• In addition to the tram lines 27, 60 & 67, Union are offering shuttle buses from Edisonstraße/An der Wuhlheide via FEZ/An der Wuhlheide to the Alte Försterei stop and back.
• The security measures for the Weinachtssingen meet the same high standards as on normal match days. All guests are advised to allow sufficient time for the admission checks.
• Please follow the instructions of the stewards in the stadium grounds. The site plan, which can also be found on the admission ticket, serves as a guide on site.

The following stadium areas are accessible:

• Main stand (Sector 1), Waldseite (Sector 2), Gegengerade (Sector 3), Wuhleseite (Sectors 4 & 5) and the pitch.
• The pitch and the seating area in sector 1 can only be reached via the entrances to the left (A) and right (B) of the main stand. Guests with tickets for sectors 3, 4 & 5 are kindly requested to use the entrances on the Wuhleseite if possible (ticket office areas III & IV).
• The standing areas in sectors 2, 3, 4 and 5 can be reached from all entrances via the walkway behind the standing areas.

The stadium regulations apply:

• Bulky items (such as buggies, folding stools, etc.), glass bottles and thermos flasks may not be brought into the stadium.
• Deviating from the usual stadium regulations, recording devices and cameras are allowed.
• In order to avoid delays at the entrances, all visitors are asked not to carry any larger bags or luggage.

Inside the stadium:

• Candles and songbooks are available free of charge at all direct access points to the stadium areas.
• All catering stations will be open. Payments can be made in cash, by debit or credit card, or by mobile phone at the grills and beverage stands.
• Union fan merchandise is available at the Union-Zeughaus Waldseite and the Hämmerlingeck and Bierkasse sales stands. There will also be two sales stands in the interior along the Gegengerade.

Programme:

• 17:15: Prelude with the Eisernen Bläser brass ensemble and the Eintracht Mahlsdorf male voice choir
• 19:00: Start of the Christmas singing with the school choir of the Emmy-Noether-Gymnasium
• 21:00: End of the event

Shares office:

• The shares office is also open (11:00 to around 22:00)
• In addition, completed subscription forms can be handed in at the Zeughaus Waldseite, at the Zeughaus stands Bierkasse and Hämmerling-Eck, and at the stands of the Fan- und Mitgliederabteilung (FuMA).

The event has been sold out for weeks, and no more tickets are available. There is a last chance for club members on the official ticket secondary market.

The 1. FC Union Berlin Foundation will also be present this year. Donations are warmly requested for the foundation, V.I.R.U.S. and Union Economic Council's joint initiative ‘Eisern statt Einsam’

1. FC Union Berlin are looking forward to welcoming all visitors for a sing-a-long, and request that they arrive in good time so that all guests can be seated in a relaxed manner.

For those who cannot be there in person, rbb television will broadcast the 22nd Weinachtssingen from the Stadion An der Alten Försterei from 20:15. AFTV will show the event live from 19:00. You can also sing along at home, because the songbook for this year's Christmas singing is available in digital form and free of charge from the Union Kiosk.
