Pinguins Bremerhaven tickets 2026-27: hockey in the harbour city
Fischtown Pinguins Bremerhaven, known in the league as Pinguins Bremerhaven, play 26 home games in 2026-27 at the Eisarena am Wilhelm-Kaisen-Platz, which holds 4,767. A close, loud hockey night on the North Sea coast is the draw.
Pinguins Bremerhaven: coastal hockey with a loyal following
Founded in 1983, Fischtown Pinguins Bremerhaven are the pride of a harbour city on the North Sea. The league lists the club as Pinguins Bremerhaven, and the name has become familiar to hockey fans across Germany.
Bremerhaven is a good destination for a different kind of weekend: the shipping museum, the Klimahaus and the harbour promenade give a maritime backdrop, and Bremen is under an hour away for a bigger-city base. The hockey fits easily after a day by the water.
Eisarena am Wilhelm-Kaisen-Platz: where Pinguins Bremerhaven play
The Eisarena am Wilhelm-Kaisen-Platz holds 4,767. It is a compact hall in which every seat is close to the action, and the sound stays inside. Getting there is straightforward from the centre, and the surrounding streets fill with fans in the hours before the game.
Because the capacity is modest, popular games sell out earlier than in large arenas. Arrive 45 minutes ahead to find your place and a warm drink, since the North Sea winds can make the walk feel cold.
Pinguins Bremerhaven supporters and match-day atmosphere
The Pinguins crowd is known for a steady, informed, loud support. Chants, drums and flags are a constant, and the building responds to every close chance. There is a strong local identity: people come to watch their team, not just to be entertained.
Visitors say the welcome is warm. A scarf from the fan shop and a few words of German go a long way.
Pinguins Bremerhaven rivalry: the north-German test
Grizzlys Wolfsburg are the clearest northern rival, visiting Bremerhaven on 8 December 2026 and 8 January 2027. Eisbären Berlin, the champions, come on 24 January 2027 for the biggest test of the winter.
The two dates in December and January are the best choices if you want a regional edge to your evening.
Buying Pinguins Bremerhaven tickets from near or far
Use the club's official box office first. Season ticket holders have priority, and the games against Berlin and Wolfsburg and weekend fixtures will go first. Plan early if your trip is fixed.
From abroad, check the delivery method and keep your ticket on your phone. If a game is sold out, use only reputable resale marketplaces. Our email alert will tell you when your chosen dates are worth booking.
A Pinguins home game is also a chance to try the local food. Fish sandwiches are a harbour classic, and many fans stop for one before heading to the arena. After the game, the waterfront area has bars that stay open, so the evening can continue without much travel. If you are visiting from abroad, consider combining the match with the maritime museums on the following day.
Pre-game, many supporters gather in the streets near the arena, so you do not need to rush inside. Wear a scarf in club colours if you want to blend in, and bring a card for payment, because queues for cash-only counters can be slow at the intervals.
