On Saturday there were fans for a football game in the stadium for the first time.
Third division Hansa Rostock received Halleschen FC in front of 777 spectators.
This made the Ostseestädter the first club in Germany to play in front of fans again since November 1, 2020.
The return of the fans has now been announced in the Bundesliga.
And that for the possibly decisive duel for the championship.
As the "Sportbuzzer" reported, plans were in progress to reopen the stadium gates for the game between RB Leipzig and FC Bayern Munich on April 3rd.
Rapid tests as a prerequisite for visiting the stadium
According to the report, there were 999 viewers.
Leipzig's Lord Mayor Burkhard Jung (SPD) wanted to announce the model test on Monday at 10 a.m. at a press conference.
Prerequisites should be quick tests, a special access control and the allocation of seats in the A block of the Red Bull Arena.

In Rostock, the health department and the state government had given their approval beforehand.
Only season ticket holders from certain stadium areas from Rostock who had to undergo a quick test before the game were allowed.
The test stations were set up directly in front of the stadium.
But the faint hope of transferring that procedure to the Bundesliga was dashed on Monday.
Leipzig's Lord Mayor Jung clearly rejected the return of fans.
“At the moment it is completely illusory to play in front of spectators in Saxony and Leipzig.
That is unthinkable in the next few weeks.
We can imagine that we will pick up speed in May or June, ”said Jung.
The current Corona Protection Ordinance in Saxony allows pilot projects, but these are linked to a seven-day incidence of less than 100 new infections per 100,000 inhabitants.
According to Jung, Leipzig will reach this value by the end of the week.
At the end of the week, however, there will also be a new regulation, which RB and the Bundesliga handball team SC DHfK Leipzig are hoping for.
There pilot projects could be canceled entirely or decoupled from the incidence.
