The atmosphere at the Schlossplatz in Stuttgart was very much heated by the weather and the English fans. But when in the second half the long anticipated goal fell the screen on the Schlossplatz had a short failure (you hear it at 08:12). Well what a joy afterwards and the English fans finally woke up again.

Strengthened with a great Gazpacho from Marina of „Cuisine from Spain„, my boyfriend Martin, the ticket-holder and I went to the Gottlieb-Daimler-Stadion by S-Bahn. Starting from the Central Railway Station the S-Bahn was packed with fans who celebrated already inside the train.

Thousands of Spanish and Tunisian fans were to cue in-front of the security checkpoint where I had to stop and let them stream into the stadium. Good luck!

An orange sea flooded the Fan-Fest on the Schlossplatz Friday night. Over 50,000 fans from the Netherlands and the Ivory Coast gathered and celebrated the match.

Some Dutch fans climbed the fountains and tried to cool down again. Even some pants came down! 😉

The first Worldcup 2006 match here in Stuttgart took place just today: France v Switzerland.

A wonderful coincident that two of our direct neighbours met in the Gottlieb-Daimler-Stadion. The atmosphere was great and the match really exciting, wasn’t it!

So, what to do after a (won) match? Just go to theFriedrichstraße which is a parallel street to the Königstraße right behind the glass cube of the Kunstmuseum. The victory corso is always there — no matter who won! 🙂

Blue skies and 24° C at 9 p.m. We are not on holiday in Italy but at the Fan-Fest on the Schlossplatz in Stuttgart. It really has a great atmosphere with the three big screens and a lot of food and drinks. The match Argentina v Ivory Coast was really exciting to watch with thousands of peaceful fans.

Das Wetter ist ja nun wirklich ’ne Wucht! 24° C um 21:00 Uhr zum Anpfiff Argentinien : Elfenbeinküste sind echt unglaublich — besonders nach dem besch… Wetter der letzen Wochen.

Es war nicht so voll auf dem Schlossplatz, so dass man sich gut auf den Boden setzen konnte. Vielleicht bringst du dir eine Decke oder Jacke mit, um dich drauf zu setzen. Aber bei den Spielen, die jeder gucken will, wird’s mit dem Sitzen sicher nichts 😉

Temperatures of 8° C and drizzle aren’t good friends for a grand opening. But things can only get better!

The Julius Bär See-Arena a kind of squeezed pitch bridge is situated in the Eckensee close to the Neues Schloss, Parliament and Staatstheater. With two grandstands, goal-bars and a VIP lounge the arena will certainly be a place to celebrate and chill out! Just some footsteps away from the public viewing on the Schlossplatz.

Sure, you will have a great time when you come to Stuttgart for one of the matches or supporting your team. But do you know what to drink and eat to get your energy back? No?

  • Zwiebelrostbraten (roast with lots of onions)
  • Schwäbischer Kartoffelsalat (potato salad with vinegar, oil and broth, sometimes warm)
  • Wurstsalat (sausage salad with onions and vinegar and oil)
  • Brezels
