Bayern Munich stadium tours at Allianz Arena
There are a number of stadium tour options at Allianz Arena, which also manages to house the largest museum for a club in the country.
One option is to do a combined arena and museum tour which gives guests access to the entire Allianz Arena, from the press room to the changing rooms, in addition to the impressive club museum where Bundesliga titles and Champions League trophies are housed.
Alternatively, you can elect to just have a walk around the museum without a guide or just have a stadium tour with a guide. The museum is open throughout the week while tours need to be booked in advance.
Another option is to do a VIP tour. These tours are conducted by a VIP guest and give fans access to the dugout and tunnel at the Allianz Arena in addition to a look around the VIP boxes. VIP Tours are offered on public holidays and weekends and need to be booked well in advance as they are hugely popular.
Finally, fans who are attending EURO 2024 in Germany can book on to special tours at the Allianz Arena throughout the tournament.

How to get to the Allianz Arena by car & where to park near Bayern Munich stadium??
Allianz Arena is around 10 km away from the city centre. Despite being quite far away, it is very accessible through a car, as the ground is very close to the A99 and A9 stretches of the autobahn. Even then, it is advisable to input the satnav address – Werner-Heisenberg-Allee 25, München – before starting the journey. If you are using the A9, the exit would be at exit 73 München-Fröttmaning-Süd. If you are taking the A99, then you can reach the Allianz Arena by taking the exit 12b München-Fröttmaning-Nord.
The advantage of being situated away from the city centre is seen in the comfortable parking spaces. The car park for the Allianz Arena is one of the largest and it covers an incredible 9800 spaces. You should remember that parking spaces are not free and that you have to shell out €10 while exiting the park. This payment can be made through the ArenaCard, which is available in the stalls at the stadium.
By train or metro
The Allianz Arena can be reached by train or metro. Munich is well connected to top European cities through train, and it is not a surprise that the Munich station is one of the largest in Europe. One can take the Line 6 to get off at Fröttmaning. If you are in the old city centre, the Line 6 will take you to the Marienplatz and it is a 15 minute ride. If trams are preferred over the metro, it is possible to take a tram to Marienplatz from Ostbahnhof and Hauptbahnhof, which happen to be the largest train stations in Munich.
Due to the city being well connected with trains to several parts of Europe, it is possible to make a weekend trip through trains and then make use of the metro and trams to reach the stadium. Since Germany is also very well connected to the parts of the world with flight services, this can also be an option for fans who want to visit the Allianz Arena and watch Bayern in action.

What’s the Allianz Arena like?
The Allianz Arena is one of the modern stadiums in world football. It has been the home of Bayern Munich only since 2005. Yet, this is one of the largest stadiums in Europe with a capacity of 75,024 for domestic games. Even though the capacity drops down to 70,000 for the European and international matches, it is still one of the iconic grounds with a modern touch. This modern status of the stadium is reflected in the ‘continuous ring style’ design, which has been chosen over the ‘English style’ that is more traditional. Even then, you will find separate sections on the ground that is well defined.
The four sections of the Allianz Arena are North Stand, East stand, South stand, and West stand. The North stand is one of the largest with a three tier design. It also holds most of the executive boxes in the stadium. In many ways, this stand would be considered as a continuous bowl of tiers that sandwiches all the hospitality boxes. Due to the larger size of this stand, the tickets are very affordable. The East stand is the largest in terms of seating capacity. The curvaceous appearance of the stand manages to hide the bulk.
The curvature of the stand also makes it possible for extra seats along the pitch side. The South stand is also known as the Südkurve and it is very popular amongst fans who tend to be very vocal. There is no separate ultras group, but different supporters group like Inferno Bavaria, Schickeria München, and Red Fanatic München feature in this stand. The West stand is regarded as the main stand since it manages to hold all the changing room, players’ tunnels, executive seats, and the dugout.
