Use Bayern's official request portal, checking current eligibility and allocation status. Its ticket exchange is an official option subject to availability, and the club says there is no match-day box-office purchase. A request does not promise a seat. Visiting supporters should check their own club's allocation and instructions.
Check the dated MVV planner for U6 to Frottmaning and your ticket allocation's final approach. Allianz Arena states match tickets do not include MVV fares, so buy the correct transport ticket. Munich Airport has S1 and S8 city connections; the stadium journey and airport leg need separate planning.
Nov 19 – Nov 21 · 3 days at the destination
Recommended for this trip. International flight days are additional.
The full 2026-11-19 to 2026-11-21 trip gives you an arrival buffer, Bayern Munich vs Cologne at Allianz Arena and a departure day. Keep Thursday arrival light with an old-town walk after luggage storage and a Klosterwirt meal if a table fits. Short daylight and a delayed flight are reasons to trim the walk. Saturday can include paid Residence Museum interiors if the flight margin allows. Check winter hours and current room access, then collect luggage before the airport leg.
Plan your US flight and onward connection to reach Munich by 2026-11-19. Optional arrival activities depend on the real landing time and dated bookings.
Keep Thursday arrival light with an old-town walk after luggage storage and a Klosterwirt meal if a table fits.
Arrive in Munich the day before the event and leave room for the actual US flight and onward connection. Check in and store luggage before taking on the optional local stops; skip them after a delayed arrival.
Munich city centre
Take a short self-guided walk around Marienplatz and the New Town Hall exterior. It is a simple arrival-day way to see the old town without reserving a tour or climbing a ticketed viewpoint. Shops and interiors have their own opening; shorten the walk in bad weather or after a delayed flight.
Marienplatz, Munich old town
Choose a Bavarian meal at Augustiner Klosterwirt near the former monastery site. Consult the current menu and book a table if available, keeping arrival timing flexible after your flight. Normal daily opening is not a promise of a seat or a specific seasonal dish.
Augustiner Klosterwirt, Augustinerstrasse 1
Friday evening belongs to Bayern vs Cologne.
Make the Hofbrauhaus at Platzl an optional Bavarian food stop, checking the room, current menu and seating arrangements first. Reservation rules depend on the room and group size. This is in the old town, not beside the Allianz Arena: skip the meal if it narrows stadium travel.
Hofbrauhaus, Platzl 9
Use the dated MVV plan for U6 to Frottmaning, then follow the stadium signs for your home or visiting allocation. Buy a separate transport ticket and allow for the final walk, searches and queues. An old-town meal is optional; do not squeeze it between arrival and the stadium.
Munich to Allianz Arena
Attend Bayern Munich vs Cologne in the Bundesliga at Allianz Arena on 2026-11-20. Use only a valid ticket for your appropriate allocation. The listed kickoff is currently confirmed; recheck for changes.
Allianz Arena
Allow for stadium exit crowds and take the return route checked before football. Keep the night in Munich rather than building an airport connection around the final whistle. A later meal is optional and depends on current kitchen service.
Allianz Arena to Munich
Saturday can include paid Residence Museum interiors if the flight margin allows.
Visit the Residence Museum's palace interiors if the date and your travel leave enough room. Admission is paid and the official site lists tickets; check current room access and opening first. Winter hours are shorter, and theatre admission is separate. Store travel luggage before setting out.
Munich Residence Museum
Let your actual flight or train decide whether a last stop fits. Collect luggage and check the dated S1 or S8 airport connection, correct terminal and carrier arrival margin. Other airports need different routes. Skip sightseeing for an early departure; another overnight extends the plan.
Munich to your departure connection
Choose a Munich base with a sensible connection to Marienplatz or another stop on your checked stadium route and your real airport or arrival station. The old-town food stops and Residence Museum are city activities, separate from the Arena trip. Compare refundable terms and store luggage before sightseeing.
Check the dated MVV planner for U6 to Frottmaning and your ticket allocation's final approach. Allianz Arena states match tickets do not include MVV fares, so buy the correct transport ticket. Munich Airport has S1 and S8 city connections; the stadium journey and airport leg need separate planning.
Follow your valid ticket and the current stadium map. Home fans approach the south entrance via the Esplanade; visiting fans follow their northwest entrance route and footbridge from Frottmaning. Leave travel luggage at your lodging and check current entry and accessibility guidance before leaving.
