Bayern München tickets - Experience Bayern München at Allianz Arena!

The Fan Walk is a tradition where thousands of Bayern supporters gather at Fröttmaning subway station and walk together to Allianz Arena before big matches. It typically starts about 2-3 hours before kickoff, with fans singing Bayern songs and creating a festive atmosphere. Anyone can join this roughly 15-minute walk, which follows a dedicated pathway from the station to the stadium. It's particularly impressive during evening games when fans carry torches and flares (where permitted). For the full experience, wear Bayern colors and learn a few chants beforehand.

The Südkurve (South Curve) is Bayern München's famous standing section where the most passionate fans gather. This is where the ultras and hardcore supporters create the stadium's atmosphere with constant chanting, choreographed displays, and flag waving. Tickets for this area are extremely difficult to obtain as they're primarily reserved for official fan clubs and long-term supporters. If you do manage to get a Südkurve ticket, be prepared to stand for the entire match and participate in the chanting. It's not recommended for families with young children or those wanting a more relaxed viewing experience, but it offers the most authentic Bayern supporter atmosphere.

Absolutely! The FC Bayern Museum (also called FC Bayern Erlebniswelt) at Allianz Arena offers an immersive journey through the club's rich history. It features interactive exhibits, the impressive trophy collection including Champions League cups, historic jerseys, and personal items from legendary players. A typical visit takes about 1.5 hours. On match days, the museum is open until 3 hours before kickoff, making it perfect for early arrivals. Some ticket packages include museum entry, but it can also be purchased separately. For the best experience, consider combining it with a stadium tour, though these aren't available on match days. The museum provides context that enhances your appreciation of the match itself.

Allianz Arena's iconic exterior consists of 2,874 ETFE foil air panels that can be illuminated independently with red, blue, or white LED lights. For Bayern matches, the stadium glows red; for 1860 Munich (when they played there) it was blue; and for German national team games, it shines white. The lighting can also create patterns and animations for special occasions. This unique feature makes the stadium visible from miles away and creates a spectacular approach, especially for evening matches. The best photos can be taken from the dedicated viewing platform at the subway station or from the elevated walkway approaching the stadium. The illumination typically begins at dusk and continues until after the match ends.

After matches, many Bayern fans head to traditional beer halls and gardens to celebrate or commiserate. Augustiner-Keller near Hauptbahnhof is a popular post-match destination with excellent traditional beer and food. For the most authentic experience, visit Paulaner am Nockherberg or Hofbräuhaus in the city center. During summer months, the beer gardens in the English Garden like Chinesischer Turm or Seehaus offer a more relaxed atmosphere. Most establishments serve the "Big Six" Munich breweries: Augustiner, Paulaner, Hacker-Pschorr, Spaten, Löwenbräu, and Hofbräu. Order a "Mass" (one-liter beer) and traditional Bavarian snacks like pretzels, Obatzda cheese spread, or Weisswurst sausages for the complete Munich experience. Reservations are recommended, especially after high-profile matches.
