The standing room area is the heart of a stadium," architect Stefan Nixdorf said at the beginning of December 2007 in an interview with the Tivoli Echo. The southern stand, home of the black-and-yellow fans, offers 10,000 standing room tickets. As a whole, the new stadium has room for 32,960 spectators, of which 1348 are business seats and 28 are box seats.

From the outside, the building is immediately identifiable as a football stadium. The generous, triangular vestibule connects the entry to Soers Sportpark with the stadium. Oversized Alemannia coats of arms hang over the entrances.
