HSV unveil pre-season schedule! | OneFootball

HSV are currently on their summer break, but will return to training in just under a month.

This Sunday, the club announced the key details of its plans for preparations for the 2026/27 season. According to the announcement, the squad will reconvene on July 6 and 7 for performance testing, before the first training camp begins just one day later. From July 8 to 11, HSV will stay in northern Denmark and spend the nights in the coastal town of Helsingør.

The first training session at the Volkspark is scheduled for July 13. However, the Red Shorts will not remain at home for too long. On July 19 — the day of the World Cup final — the second training camp begins in Oberlängenfeld, Austria. During the week-long stay in the Tyrolean municipality, the foundations are to be laid for a successful second Bundesliga season following promotion.

HSV’s pre-season friendly opponents still unknown

One of the highlights of pre-season will take place on August 1 in the form of the Volkspark festival. HSV will present itself to its fans and is expected to play a friendly at home against an international club. Last year, the team lost 4–0 to Olympique Lyon in front of more than 45,000 spectators. Which opponent will appear at the Volksparkstadion this time is still not known.

Nur die Raute – by HSV fans for HSV fans

In any case, the current pre-season schedule does not yet include any friendly matches. However, they will be announced gradually in the near future. After the Volkspark festival, there will be three weeks remaining before the DFB-Pokal first-round match away to third-division side Verl, which will take place between August 21 and 24. The Bundesliga will return the following weekend. The DFL will publish the fixture list on July 2.
