Donau-Arena

Donau-Arena in Regensburg is a multifunctional arena distinguished by its compact design and curved roofline, accommodating ice sports, concerts, shows and other major events. The main arena can hold approximately 7,400 visitors, depending on the stage and floor configuration, and it is particularly significant as the home venue of the Eisbären Regensburg ice hockey team.

The interior is designed for quick transitions between an ice rink and a concert or event setup. Variable stage positions, grandstand and floor seating, together with professional lighting and sound infrastructure, allow the hall to adapt to different productions, while the relatively close relationship between the stands and the playing surface or stage creates an engaging atmosphere. Several food and drink kiosks operate around the public concourse during events.

The arena is located at Walhalla-Allee 22, Regensburg, Germany. Large parking areas next to the venue provide more than 1,000 car spaces, while bus line D and dedicated event shuttle buses stop directly in front of the hall during relevant events, providing convenient access to the entrances.

Regensburg, a historic city in Bavaria on the banks of the Danube, combines an exceptionally well-preserved medieval atmosphere with a modern scene for sports, concerts and other events. For visitors arriving for an event, the city is particularly convenient because important venues such as das Stadtwerk.Donau-Arena and Jahnstadion Regensburg are integrated into a compact urban area, while the city centre offers a wide selection of restaurants, bars, hotels and other accommodation options. Regensburg is therefore an attractive destination for a concert, ice hockey game, football match or another event, with enough additional attractions to easily extend a stay for several days.

The city's main transport hub is Regensburg Hauptbahnhof, from where the Regensburger Verkehrsverbund (RVV) network connects the centre with different districts, arenas and sports venues. RVV provides bus connections to the Donau-Arena, while Jahnstadion Regensburg is also integrated into the city's public transport network, making it possible to reach events without a car. For international visitors, an important connection is available from Munich Airport (Flughafen München), where the ÜFEX Airport Express provides a direct rail connection to Regensburg. The combination of the main railway station, local buses and regional trains makes travelling between accommodation, the historic centre and the main event venues straightforward.

Before or after an event, it is worth exploring Regensburg's historic Old Town and Stadtamhof, known for their exceptionally well-preserved architecture and UNESCO World Heritage status. Among the city's most recognizable landmarks are the Stone Bridge (Steinerne Brücke), St. Peter's Cathedral, the Old Town Hall and the squares Haidplatz and Bismarckplatz. A walk along the Danube offers a different perspective of the city, while the narrow streets of the Old Town are home to numerous restaurants, cafés and historic buildings. The combination of events, convenient transport connections and one of Germany's best-preserved historic city centres makes Regensburg an excellent place to combine a concert or sporting event with sightseeing.
