Trams rerouted due to events related to "The Finals" in Dresden
Dresden Transport Changes During "The Finals" Event
During the "The Finals" sports event in Dresden on August 2nd and 3rd, 2025, there will be changes in public transportation affecting tram lines near the Augustus Bridge and Theater Square area.
Tram lines 3, 4, 7, and 9, which serve Theaterplatz (Theater Square), will have temporary route changes due to the event from 10:30 AM to 4:00 PM on both days[1]. This implies diversions and modified stops around Theaterplatz during these times.
Official informational flyers with maps of the detour routes are available from Dresdner Verkehrsbetriebe (DVB), the city’s public transit operator[1]. Given the proximity of Augustus Bridge to Theaterplatz, it is likely that tram routes crossing the bridge are part of these diversions, though explicit mentions of Augustus Bridge are not detailed in the search results.
Passengers should expect altered tram routing and possible temporary suspension or relocation of stops on lines 3, 4, 7, and 9 in the vicinity of Theaterplatz and the Augustus Bridge during the event times. For complete, current details including precise diversions and alternative routes, consulting DVB’s official website or their event-specific flyers is recommended[1].
Line 8 will end at Eisenbahnstraße and will operate as planned via Neustaedter Markt to Albertplatz on August 2nd and 3rd. Line 7 will take the same diversion route but will only go as far as Albertplatz on August 2nd and 3rd[1]. On those days, lines 3, 4, and 9 will run via Ostra-Allee and the Congress Center[1].
From August 2nd to 3rd, line 7 will operate as an E-line via Neustaedter Markt to Eisenbahnstraße and will turn around there[1]. No other significant public transport changes related to this event in the area of Augustus Bridge and Theater Square were found in the search results.
Elsewhere in the city, a cyclist seriously injured himself in a fall in the Neustadt due to alcohol consumption. Parts of Buchenstraße, Kiefernstraße, and Hechtstraße have been closed since this morning in the Hecht Quarter[2].
"The Finals" will take place from July 31st to August 3rd at nine locations in the center of Dresden[3]. On July 31st, line 7 will follow the route of line 8 via the eastern ring road and Sachsenallee[1].
