Allianz Arena

The Allianz Arena is hard to miss. Opened in 2005 in the north of Munich, it is best known for its illuminated facade, which changes colour depending on the occasion: red for Bayern Munich, white for the German national team, and blue for TSV 1860 during the years the club played there. The design by architects Herzog & de Meuron has become one of the city's most recognisable landmarks, as familiar to arriving supporters as it is to the rest of Munich.

With a capacity of around 75,000 seats, the Arena provides clear sightlines from all three tiers. It has hosted several major international fixtures: the opening match of the 2006 World Cup, the 2012 Champions League final, and a number of matches at both Euro 2020 and Euro 2024.

Bayern's supporters are among the most loyal in the Bundesliga. Led by the Südkurve, they make themselves heard throughout the stadium, particularly during the Klassiker against Dortmund.

On non-matchdays, the Allianz Arena offers several tour formats. The Arena Tour gives access to behind-the-scenes areas: the stands, the first-team dressing rooms, the players' tunnel, the mixed zone, the press room, and the stadium exterior. There is also the Arena View, a more self-directed option that lets visitors explore the ground at their own pace using a multilingual audio guide provided on-site.

Both tours can be combined with a visit to the FC Bayern Erlebniswelt, the largest club museum in Germany, covering more than 3,000 m² of the Rekordmeister's history.

Located in Fröttmaning, the Allianz Arena is well connected by the U6 metro line. For those driving, the complex also has Europe's largest covered car park, with close to 9,800 spaces, supplemented by additional parking areas around the stadium.
