About Allianz Arena

The Allianz Arena is a football stadium on the Fröttmaning Heath at the northern edge of Munich's Schwabing-Freimann borough, at Franz-Beckenbauer-Platz 5. Designed by Herzog & de Meuron, it opened on 30 May 2005 and holds 75,000 spectators for domestic matches and 70,000 for international ones, making it the second-largest stadium in Germany after Dortmund's Westfalenstadion. FC Bayern Munich have played their home games here since the 2005–06 season.

What's inside

The stadium is best known for its facade of 2,760 inflated ETFE-foil air panels, which made it the first stadium in the world with a fully colour-changing exterior. Each panel can be lit independently in white, red or blue, and for each game the shell takes the colour of the home side: red for Bayern Munich and white for the German national team, with white also used when the arena is a neutral venue. On clear nights the lit stadium can be seen from mountain tops in Austria.
