While King Baudouin Stadium offers a large capacity and convenient public transport options, potential visitors should be aware of possible obstructed views, long queues, and parking challenges. Consider attending well-organized events and utilizing public transport. The stadium is generally closed to tourists unless there's an event. Away fans should use Line 6 to Houba-Brugmann station. Check tribune number before choosing metro station. Be prepared for potential payment system with special cards for food/drinks. The organisation is good, no long lines apart at the food and drinks stands. Due to the running track, you were quite far from the field, making it less enjoyable to watch the game. Very well organized...always had smooth and pleasant experience. The stadium itself is good, but each time it took 1 hour to get out of the parking. It just got refreshed with seats, painting, entrance etc, But the problem is that the view is not great everywhere in the stadium, because of the athletics track, you are far from the pitch.

A great football and athletics stadium. We were a bit far from players and the game, especially when seated on the goal sides, but apart from that we had a great time. The organisation is good, no long lines apart at the food and drinks stands. The is easily accessible from the three surrounding metro stations (make sure to pick the closest one bases on your Tribune number), and tram stops. We watched the Belgium-Austria match at the King's Stadium, and it was disappointing to see such a poorly maintained in the heart of Europe. The food and drink queues at the were extremely long, and they only accepted a special card issued by the Belgian Football Federation for payment. You had to purchase this card, load it with money, and then join different queues to make purchases using this card for food and beverages. You would wait in line for a hamburger, then leave and join another line for drinks. In all my years of going to matches and stadiums, I have never seen such a disorganized and illogical system. Due to the running track, you were quite far from the field, making it less enjoyable to watch the game. The match ended in a 1-1 draw, but at least we had the chance to see Lukaku's goal on the big screen. The had easy transportation options, and we returned to our hotel using electric scooters, which was the most enjoyable part of the evening, riding through empty streets on scooters at midnight. I was going to give 1 star but gave 3 stars because of kind and friendly Belgian fans. Stade Roi Baudouin is the biggest in Belgium in terms of capacity. It’s around 55k and hold a lot of different events. It just got refreshed with seats, painting, entrance etc But the problem is that the view is not great everywhere in the stadium, because of the athletics track, you are far from the pitch. The acoustic is nice as it is closed but not as as English stadiums. The parking is a bit small and far if you come by car, plus it’s paid parking in the surroundings streets until midnight which is expensive. However I would highly recommend to come by tram/bus/metro ! There are plenty of options and it is super accessible! Big in Brussels. Unless tgere is any event, entry is not allowed. But football matches will takes place here. Also other sports. Main Belgium Stadium, but if you are a tourist it will not be open unless there is an event. Literally it is "impounded" behind a high fence line a 100 meters parameter of it. No way to do a tour, visit a shop or view the Heysel Disaster Memorial. Very well organized, went the many times for different sort of events, mostly concerts and always had smooth and pleasant experience. Last time was post pandemic Coldplay concert and apart from 15 min wait at the entrance have no other complaints. Usually sound for the concerts, nice drinks and food area which manages well the crowd. Enough toilets (however, very disgusting ones, but what can you do) and also well organized. Overall experience. The itself is good, but each time it took 1 hour to get out of the parking. It was poorly organised. stadium, facilities and easy to get to with the metro link to various stations, depending on what tribune you are in Away fans get off the underground Line 6 Houba-Brugmann which closest station to away end.
