For 29 days, the German House of Soccer (GHOS) in New York brought together football fans, partners, members of the media and guests from around the world. More than 15,000 people visited during the World Cup, turning the DFB’s Manhattan venue into a vibrant hub for meeting people, sharing ideas and celebrating football.

Throughout the tournament in Canada, Mexico and the USA, the DFB welcomed a wide range of guests to the heart of Manhattan. With a packed programme of events and activities, the GHOS quickly established itself as a popular gathering place for fans, partners, media representatives and high-profile visitors alike.

Among those who attended were GHOS ambassadors Ann-Katrin Berger and Jürgen Klinsmann, 2014 World Cup winners Mario Götze and Thomas Müller, and President of the United Nations General Assembly Annalena Baerbock. Together with the many other guests who came through its doors, they helped bring the German House of Soccer to life and strengthen connections across the international football community.

The DFB would like to thank all the visitors, partners and everyone involved in making the German House of Soccer in New York possible and turning it into such a special gathering place for football fans from Germany and around the world.

We’d love to hear your thoughts, feedback and suggestions at ghos@dfb.de.

Thanks for having us, New York!
