On October 3, 2024, German Unity Day, FC Eintracht Bamberg will play against FC Bayern Munich II. The game will not kick off until 7 p.m. due to a television broadcast by Bayerischer Rundfunk, according to an announcement. The “little Bayern” squad is “studded with top talents like Adam Aznou and Nestory Irankunda, both of whom have already made their debuts for their respective national teams,” according to FC Eintracht.

It is a “Herculean task for Bamberg, but also an attractive one,” according to the assessment. “It looks like the stadium will be pretty full,” explains FCE board member Sascha Dorsch. On average, between 20,000 and 30,000 viewers sit in front of the television screen.

“In addition, we are taking advantage of the holiday and will open the stadium from 4:30 p.m. The Uetzinger brass band is on site and we are celebrating an Oktoberfest festival until the game starts – of course with the delicious beer from our main sponsor Fässla in the mugs,” continued Dorsch. Further events related to the game and a youth tournament in the morning round off the holiday.
