Vitesse

Vitesseについて

The GelreDome is the most unusual stadium in the Netherlands. It has a fully closing roof and a grass pitch mounted on a concrete tray that slides out of the building, freeing the floor inside for concerts and events. When it opened in 1998, partly with the 2000 European Championship in mind, that combination existed nowhere else in Europe.

With the roof closed the character of a match changes completely. The sound stays inside, so a reasonably full stand is considerably louder than the capacity suggests. It is one of the few places in the country where the weather has no bearing on how an evening turns out.

Vitesse have been through difficult years financially. Following a licensing procedure and a takeover, the club has played in the second tier since the 2025/26 season. For a visitor that means a different kind of matchday from the Eredivisie: smaller opponents, different kick-off times and a support base carrying the club through a hard period. If you want to see Dutch football away from the three big clubs, in a ground unlike any other in the country, this is a fixture worth knowing about.

Vitesseのホスピタリティ

Vitesse have business lounges and skyboxes inside the GelreDome that are used for guests before and after the match. Because we do not hold standing availability for the Keuken Kampioen Divisie, tickets and hospitality for this club are arranged on request.

試合当日の実用情報

Arrive an hour before kick-off. Matches in the Dutch second tier are often played on Friday evenings, which differs from the weekend rhythm of the Eredivisie, so check the kick-off time before booking travel. There is catering around the ground and plenty of parking. Beer served inside Dutch stadiums is usually low-alcohol. If you have time in the city, the Netherlands Open Air Museum and Park Sonsbeek lie on the north side of Arnhem.
