1. FSV Mainz 05, nicknamed 'Die Nullfünfer' ('The Zerofivers') or 'Die Rheinhessen' ('The Rhenish Hesses'), is a German football club, founded in 1905 and based in Mainz in the region Rhenish Hesse, which is part of the federal state Rhineland-Palatinate, Mainz being the capital.
The long-time Second Bundesliga regular guest failed in three attempts to make it to the top flight in 1997, 2002, and 2003, with three traumatizing close fourth place finishes just out of the promotion zone.
In 2004 the ascent into the Bundesliga under the leadership of coach and former player Jürgen Klopp was made eventually. The team played three seasons in the top flight, but was relegated at the end of the 2006–07 season. Mainz then secured promotion back to the top flight just two years later, after the 2008–09 season.
In the 2010–11 season Mainz equalled the Bundesliga starting record by winning their first seven games that season starring the 'Bruchweg Boys': Holtby, Schürrle and Szalai under Tuchel, leading the side to fifth in 2010/11.
In the 2015-16 season they placed 6th in the Bundesliga under Schmidt, which meant immediate qualification for the group stage of UEFA Europa League for their first time.
The club currently plays at OPEL Arena, the formerly Coface Arena, opened in 2011, which holds 34,034 spectators.
Mainz is known for being one of the foremost carnival cities in Germany, therefore costumes and carnival tunes are a usual sight in the Coface Arena and the clubs supporters are famous for their self-ironic chant "Wir sind nur ein Karnevalsverein" ("We are just a Carnival Club").

Guten Tag everyone,
I hope you're doing well! I am interested in ticket sales for the upcoming match of Mainz against Bochum on January 11th. Could you please provide information on how and when the tickets will be available? Thank you in advance!
Guten Tag!
I’m visiting with my wife and family the weekend of 13/12-15/12. We plan to attend Mainz 05 v. Bayern Munich. What section(s) in the arena is best for neutral fans? Or is it better to join the hometown fans?
Looking at the team website, tickets aren’t available for purchase. With the game being only a few weeks away, is there somewhere else I should be looking for tickets?
Also I would love some recommendations for pre & post game drinking, eating, and fun!
Danke!
Gibt es hier jemanden der Interesse an der Mitbestimmung im Verein hat?
Ich untersuche in meiner Masterarbeit die Einführung von vereinseigenen digitalen Mitbestimmungsplattformen für Fans und Mitglieder von Vereinen des deutschen Profifußballs (1. und 2. Bundesliga).
Ich suche dafür noch Interviewpartner (Dauer ca. 20min.) die grundsätzlich an der Mitbestimmung in ihrem Verein interessiert wären. Ihr würdet dadurch einen Beitrag dazu leisten, dass Fans und Mitgliedern in Zukunft mehr Mitbestimmungsrechte gewährt werden. :)
Bei Interesse gerne den Post kommentieren oder ein Dm schreiben :)
I know he came with a bit of a shadow when he arrived but along with Jonny and Amiri he has been our best player this season? One of the best signings of the summer window. Brilliant again today v Dortmund
Danish fan of Mainz. (became a fan from reading about Bo, the way you guys pulled out of relegation and watching several games, I try to watch every match on tv now)
Curious what the feeling is among the fans?
What do you think are Mainz's biggest strengths?
What players do you think have a big future?
What is your feeling on the quality of the squad at the moment?
Hi there, I am a British football fan living in Germany and I came across this campaign from the Mainz ultras.
Obviously Contro Il Razzismo is a good message that we can all agree on but I'm wondering why this phrase is in Italian rather than the usual "Gegen Rassismus"?
wie leicht kann man sich in unserem stadion in anderen block gehen. Ich und meine Freund sind Fans aus Birmingham und wir haben leider karten für uandere Blocks. So, wie streng sind secuirity in der situation? Ist es technisch möglich mit meinem wr code in andere blocks reinzukommen?
Guten Tag! I'm visiting from the US, and catching a match with you all on Dec 1, v Hoffenheim, with my fiancee. Do you guys have any pointers? Where to hang out and mingle and enjoy a Glas Rotwein with folks pre and post match? What the ambiance is like, what player kit to buy as a souvenir, etc? I'm looking forward to meeting you folks!
Hallo zusammen, ich weiß nicht, ob es hier jemanden gibt, der Sorare spielt, aber ich suche noch Mitglieder für mein Mainz 05 Team. Falls jemand Interesse hat, kann er gerne über diesen Link beitreten: https://sorare.com/football/play/rivals/squads/invite/T2HRNR/stefanbell Oder hier schreiben, ich erkläre auch gerne das ein oder andere, sofern ich kann 😊
Moin, ich wollte mal aus Interesse fragen, ob's so etwas wie einen Zweitmarkt für Auswärtstickets gibt oder ob das ganze nur unter der Hand weiterverkauft wird. Lebe jetzt schon ne Weile im Hamburger Exil und würde dementsprechend gerne zum Auswärtsspiel, hatte aber auch als Mitglied keine Chance beim VVK. Wir versuchen aktuell über den St Pauli Zweitmarkt dranzukommen, aber auch da sieht's kritisch aus. Würde mich über Hilfe freuen, auch gerne wenn jemand jemanden kennt, der seine loswerden möchte 👀
Hallo, ich bin ein Ausländer, der kein einziges Spiel von Mainz 05 verpasst und immer im Stadion dabei ist. Ich möchte auch gerne die Fangesänge mitsingen und wollte daher nachfragen. Es geht um den Fangesang, der in diesem Video beginnt, in dem auch Pfiffe vorkommen. Kennt jemand den genauen Text dieses Liedes? Vielen Dank im Voraus!
help!
Hallo, ich bin Neuling. Ab wann kann ich online Tickets für das Spiel gegen Dortmund am 09.11. kaufen? Ich bin kein Mitglied oder habe kein Abo. Würde also ganz normale Karten kaufen wollen. Ich würde außerdem 7 Karten kaufen wollen, weil ich mit der Familie hingehen möchte. Ist das da möglich?
I’m travelling from Ireland Mainz vs Hoffenheim.
The game is scheduled for Saturday 30th November but I’ve noticed Hoffenheim are playing in Europe on the Thursday and the QF of the Pokal is scheduled to be played the following week too.
When will confirmation of the game and time be confirmed by the Bundesliga?
Any help would be great appreciated 🇮🇩
Wie bewertet ihr Bells Leistung nach der Einwechslung? Kann er sich Hoffnungen machen auf einen Startelfeinsatz nächste Woche?
Bitte nur richtige Fans die mitsingen und fiebern
Hätte noch eine Karte im S-Block über und eh Bock, neue Leute kennenzulernen :) Also wer Interesse hat, gerne melden!
Krauß is rumored to go to Luton soon. I was never a big fan of him. Too defensive minded, poor with the ball at his feet and doesn’t fit into Henriksens system. So from that perspective I am not sad to see him leave. However, I do wonder: Who is going to play for us this season? The roster is really thin and there are several players who are still rumored to leave or not considered to have enough quality like Caci, Fernandes, Richter, Barkok, da Costa, Dal (loan). 2 months ago management said that the roster is going to be almost ready for the start of training camp. Now we have 11 days left in the transfer window but huge holes in the roster depth.
Basically it only takes injuries to 1-2 key players and it will be Hinrunde 23/24 again because there are almost no quality backups.
In my opinion, the good result is not reflective of the match, which, unfortunately, seemed very amateur-ish in large parts. I was disappibted by almost everybody's performance - Lee, Caci, Sieb... only Sano seemed to really have it together. If Wehen had been a little more daring in many situations, they easily could've scored more than one Goal.
At least we're in the next round now and hopefully we'll be able to take some important teachings out of this hard-fought Victory against a club from the Third League
Hi everyone! Hope you’re all doing well! I recently put together an article where I chatted with a fan from each of the 18 Bundesliga clubs to get their thoughts on what gives them hope and what has them worried ahead of the new season. It’s a pretty cool collection of 18 unique perspectives, and I’d love for you to check it out in my weekly free German football newsletter!

Wishing you a great day and the best of luck in your upcoming Pokal fixture! :)
