The Mewa Arena has a total capacity of 34,034 fans. It is designed as a single-tier stadium. The stadium concept is based on four free-standing stands that are connected to each other at the bottom. This gives the Mewa Arena the character of a classic British-style stadium. 12,000 fans form the "red Mainz wall" on the striking stand behind the goal.
