Great seats all around, a fun team to…read morewatch, the staff was friendly (and, added bonus, could speak English well enough for conversation!), and the beer was great! I had dinner prior to both games, so I didn't enjoy the food, but my friends had a couple snacks - popcorn and the like - and it was delicious. I'll definitely make it a point to head to a game again next time I'm in the area!

The crowd is always electric and there is not a bad seat in the place. Although the league is not great compared to the NHL or other leagues in Europe, the atmosphere is among the best I have ever been a part of, and I have been to more than 130 sports venues around the world. I love this place and will make an effort to go back there the next time I am in Vienna!

Cool venue for every kind of concert. The rock band I was there to see initially thought the sound…read morein the venue would be the worse ever (while soundchecking) but in the end, when the more than 15.000 fans filled up the Stadthalle, the sound was just great! Organisation wise everything went smoothly and the venue is easily accessible with public transport (metrostation just behind the corner).

The Generali Arena is the home of the legendary football club - FK Austria Wien. It is the pride of…read morethe Favoriten district of Vienna. (Please note - there are some other reviews of this sporting venue here on Yelp under the old name of the stadium - Franz Horr Stadion - but in 2010 there was a name change to Generali Arena and I think Yelp needs a new review using the true name of the last few years.) At this point the Generali Arena is not as easy to reach as Hanappi and Happel Stadiums. One usually must go by Ubahn to Reumannplatz, then the 67 streetcar, and then walk. In the future this will become easier with the extension of the U1 Line. The stadium itself has seen much improvement over the last several years with its comfortable new seating areas and concession stands. However the seat sections and numbering through most of the stadium remains confusing and there is still a shortage of food stands and toilets. The remodeled store selling FK Austria Wien clothing and equipment is excellent. All Austrianers (as fans and team members are called) are in heaven in that fan store. But the best thing about the Generali Arena is that my beloved Austria Wien plays there. The crowds are fanatic in support of the guys in violet. Austria Wien is an historic club - in its early days often referred to as the Jewish Club of Austria and the Habsburg Empire and it had some of the best football players in the world. It fought long and hard to keep its name in the years from 1938-1945 when Berlin wanted the "Austria" part of its name removed. The Austrianers stood strong against the Nationalist Socialists and somehow managed to keep their name. They have won dozens of Austrian Cups and Championships and at times played well in Europe. They have fans all over the world - indeed Moritz Bleibtreu recently said in an interview that he is a true Austrianer and loyal fan of Austria Wien. On a sunny Saturday in Vienna, there is little finer than cheering FK Austria Wien on to victory in the loud and friendly Generali Arena. (And if you are visiting Vienna and love good football - head down to Favoriten and catch an Austria,Wien home match at the Generali Arena.)
