Munich's Allianz Arena sits on the Fröttmaning Heath north of the city, on the U6 line, with the colour-changing exterior visible from a long way off.
Getting around
Transport in Munich
- Munich U-Bahn — line U6 to Fröttmaning, directly beside the arena.
- Munich U-Bahn — about twenty minutes on the U6 from Marienplatz in the centre.
- Munich S-Bahn — links the airport to the centre, then change to the U6.
Planning
A football weekend in Munich
With one ground in this guide, Munich is a single-match weekend, best combined with the city's beer halls and the U6 corridor between the centre and the arena.
Whichever ground you choose, the pattern of the day is the same: travel in with the crowd, arrive at the turnstiles about an hour before kick-off, and leave the return journey until the first surge has cleared. In Munich that advice matters most at the nearest station to the ground, where the queue builds within minutes of the final whistle.
