Yeah & you get free train travel with your match ticket so you're sorted for travel I believe.

as long as it's regional trains like RE Regionalexpress, (not the IC Intercity or EC Eurocity ones!), busses, trams (S-Bahn), tube. Train is free from Düsseldorf or Dortmund (or other parts of the Ruhrgebiet) on match day until 3 in the morning next day as the fare is included in our match ticket (but not totally from Cologne, as Cologne belongs to a different local transport network (probably about 5€ to the "network border" at Rommerskirchen, if I am not mistaken and then free for the rest of journey to Gladbach).

RE takes about 1h 20 mins from Dortmund to Mönchengladbach, check with Deutsche Bahn for train times (English version)

Dusseldorf is one option, just 35mins away on the train.

A little tip for those who’ve not been before, and possibly unaware that it’s a little bit more than 30 minutes on the train from Dusseldorf (Dortmund is definitely further)
There are two main stations in Monchengladbach, and the nearest to the stadium is the Rheydt, hauptbahnhof, surrounded by football bars, loud music, and the misleading impression that it’s within walking distance.

However, you’re still a tram ride away that takes at least 20 minutes through lowland countryside.

By the time, you reach Borussia Park, you’ll need convincing that you’re still in Germany, and those with a weak bladder will definitely be struggling.


The stadium is nice, but gives new meaning to the phrase “Out of town”

 

[Champions2012!]

you guys reckon the tickets will also be sold to non-seasonticket holders at one point?
stadium's only an hour and a half away for me

 

[Chris in London]
