This guide details the steps required to request pre-sale tickets as an OFC member through Ami Brigade. Because Ami Brigade is not itself an OFC we manage ticket allocations on behalf of US-Based OFCs and we require any members requesting tickets to be a member of a participating OFC. While you must be an OFC member to request tickets you DO NOT need to be a member of Ami Brigade (for example if you are traveling from the US for a match)
IMPORTANT: If you are not currently a member of a participating OFC, please register with the OFC prior to submitting your request to access the ticket request portal. In order to expedite your application, we recommend taking a screenshot of your confirmation after submitting the form so you can upload this with your request for access. Please see below for the registration links to join participating OFCs:

Frequently Asked Questions:
Why do we do this?
-The OFC pre-sales are typically quite difficult for US-Based OFCs to access. The sales almost always occur at 9 or 10 AM Stuttgart time (3 AM Central Time) and allocations typically sell out within minutes. Additionally, away matches typically require a German bank account and IBAHN number while home match tickets can be purchased with a credit card many US banks will flag the transaction as potentially fraudulent since the VfB website does not allow entry of a US zip code or billing address.
But whats in it for you?
-As OFC members currently living in Stuttgart we are regulars at VfB matches. While the primary purpose is to give traveling OFC members access to ticket pre-sales the secondary purpose is to give our local members the ability to access OFC pre-sale tickets. With that said, we will always prioritize traveling members requests over the requests of local members.
What tickets are available?
-Tickets for away matches depend upon the stadium where the match will be held. Check the details in the request form for additional details. Tickets for home matches are ONLY in the Cannstatter Kurve and can be one of 3 categories (standing - 18.50EUR, Seated cat 6 - 35EUR, Seated cat 5 - 42EUR)
