An exclusive guided tour of Signal Iduna Park will take place on Sunday, June 3, 2029. The stadium is one of Dortmund’s most recognizable landmarks and an important symbol of the Ruhr region’s cultural identity.
As the home of Borussia Dortmund, Signal Iduna Park is internationally known for its distinctive atmosphere and its famous “Yellow Wall”. With more than 81,000 seats, it is one of the largest soccer stadiums in Europe.
The guided tour will offer participants a special look behind the scenes of the stadium. The program is expected to include access to selected seating areas, the locker rooms, and the players’ tunnel.
The guided tour will be followed by the official IWCN 2029 Welcome Reception, held directly at Signal Iduna Park.
The unique atmosphere of the stadium provides an ideal setting to meet other participants, establish new connections, and begin the conference together in an informal environment.
