Attendance Since the introduction of the Bundesliga in the 1963–64 season, Eintracht Frankfurt play their home matches at Waldstadion.
Remarks: In the period after the second expansion stage of Waldstadion (from 1953 until 1974) there are no official records about the maximum capacity. That is why the official capacity of this period is assumed as 81,000 which is Eintracht's record attendance achieved in a championship match versus FK Pirmasens on 23 May 1959. the coloured background displays: Waldstadion II Waldstadion III Commerzbank-Arena Deutsche Bank Park I Deutsche Bank Park II
The * marked capacity figures point out that the ground has been under renovation.
