They are mostly outside the city centre action. Also I am pretty sure there will be security checks by stewards and you cannot bring own drinks. I would recommend to go to the big brauhauses in Munich and most action will happen in the area between Karlsplatz and Marienplatz. The closer to Marienplatz the better as trains to stadium go from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not going for a bevy so don't care about that part, but would be nice to visit it from a historical point of view Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess to control amount of people for fanzone they will issue wristbands or tickets but I guess for free. We'll probably find out nearer to the action...

One of my favourite stadiums, ever. Back in 2000 (en route to the SanMarino / Croatia double header) I saw Bayern lose to Hansa Rostock. It may have been Rostock's only away victory that season.

It has hosted 3 European cup finals and the world cup final as well of course. I really can't wait for this trip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, it's not actually in the stadium; it's on the Olimpiastadion park/complex. Quite pleased about that. If I saw the Olimpiastadion again, I didn't want to see it with fan park shyte all over the pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the Germans might be underestimating the number of Scots without match tickets who might turn up to these things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For people without tickets this is a great option to watch the game. For pre match booze and bevvies I would rather be in town centre.

We flew to Munich for that trip, too, & visited the stadium & the "Olympic sized swimming pool"(where Mark Spitz won his medals). The train trip over & under the Alps down to Italy was amazing 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you have the time, you should visit the Olimpiastadion. It's quite something, but I haven't been there for 23 years. In my experience, I would put it in my top three... San Siro, Allianz Munich and Olimpiastadion Munich. Berlin Olimpiastadion might scrape in, but only maybe. Nou Camp? No chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walters Smiths debut at the San Siro was amazing we out sang the tallies and Buffon came out and said he wished the home fans were as passionate as us.
