Both sit under the same roof, in a bowl where the upper tier climbs at about 34 degrees and the closest spectators are about 7.5 metres from the pitch, which is why regulars insist there is no bad seat in the building. That is nearly true. The exceptions are specific: two seats behind the commentary positions, a visiting sector that neutral supporters should avoid and standing blocks that buyers may mistake for seated areas. Choosing the best seats at Allianz Arena starts with the three-digit block number: the first digit gives the tier and the next two give the position. This guide goes round the bowl block by block, using the club's 2026/27 categories, the stadium operator's own figures and the verdicts of people who have sat there.
Article Summary: The strongest all-round seats in Bayern Munich's stadium are the halfway-line blocks on the long sides: middle-tier blocks 229 to 232, lower-tier blocks 101 to 107 and 118 to 125, plus upper-tier blocks 303, 327 and 328. The loudest place is the Südkurve standing area, blocks 109 to 117. The seats to avoid are the visiting sector, the top rows of the upper corners and two seats in block 304.
- Allianz Arena holds 75,024 for Bayern Munich home matches, including 13,342 standing places, according to the stadium operator, and the German FA's match data records a sold-out 75,000 for the Champions League visit of Atalanta on 18 March 2026.
- FC Bayern's 2026/27 Bundesliga face values are €80, €70, €50 and €40 for Categories 1 to 4 and €15 for standing, with half price for under-14s and over-65s, per the club price list read in November 2026.
- Away supporters at Allianz Arena sit in upper-tier blocks 340 to 347 at the north end, with block 339 and middle-tier block 242 added when the visiting club needs them.
- FanSicht's 2026/27 entry for Allianz Arena lists block 304, row 4, seats 5 and 6 as a restricted view because the commentary positions sit in front of them.
- Entry to every Bayern Munich home match in 2026/27 is by digital ticket in the FC Bayern app or the Allianz Arena app; PDF printouts, Apple Wallet and Google Wallet passes are not accepted, the club announced on 30 April 2026.
The verdicts below are editorial judgements built from the stadium's geometry, FC Bayern's 2026/27 price list and ticketing notices, the operator's published facts, visiting-fan guides issued to English clubs and individual seat reports on TripAdvisor, A View From My Seat, FanSicht and Reddit. Where sources disagree, both versions are given. If you already know the block you want, Allianz Arena tickets are shown by category and block, and the Allianz Arena seating plan already covers transport, parking, food and the ground's history, so this article leaves that material alone and sticks to the question of where to sit.
Twelve verdicts before the detail
The table sets out the judgements this guide reaches, in the order the sections below deal with them. Block numbers and categories are the ones drawn on the 1BoxOffice seat map for Bayern home matches, read on 5 November 2026, which is also how Bundesliga tickets for the ground are described, so the two can be matched without guesswork.
| # | Verdict | Where | Category | Why |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Best view | Middle tier, east side, blocks 229 to 232 | 1 | Halfway line at mid-height, facing the dugouts and the tunnel |
| 2 | Best view from above | Upper tier, blocks 303, 327 and 328, plus 304 away from the commentary positions | 1 | The whole pitch in one frame on a 34-degree rake |
| 3 | Best value side-on seat | Upper tier flanks: 301, 302, 305 to 307, 324 to 326, 329 to 331 and 348 | 2 | One category below the halfway blocks beside them |
| 4 | Closest to the players | Lower tier, main stand, blocks 101 to 107 and 136, a few rows up | 1 | Dugouts, tunnel and warm-ups in front of you |
| 5 | Best atmosphere | Südkurve standing area, blocks 109 to 117 | 5 | Bayern's organised support, 90 minutes on your feet |
| 6 | Atmosphere with a seat | Middle tier above the Südkurve, blocks 215 to 225 | 3 | Over the noise and seated, €30 below Category 1 at face value |
| 7 | Best budget seat | Upper tier behind the goals, low rows of 308 to 323 and 332 to 339 | 4 | The lowest-priced seat in the ground, steep enough to follow the far goal |
| 8 | Best for families | Long-side seats in any tier; KIDS CLUB zone in 129 to 132 for members | 1 to 3 | Seated and calm, away from the standing blocks |
| 9 | Worst for a neutral | Visiting sector (blocks 340 to 347) and overflow block 242 | Away | Segregated, sold through the visiting club, separate entrance |
| 10 | Worst documented view | Block 304, row 4, seats 5 and 6 | 1 | Commentary positions block the view, per FanSicht |
| 11 | Furthest from the pitch | Top rows of the upper corners: 308 to 312, 319 to 323 and 332 to 336 | 4 | Height and distance combined |
| 12 | Worst surprise | Standing blocks 109 to 117 and 126 to 134, outside the KIDS CLUB rows | 5 | No seat, flags in the sightline, unsuitable for small children |
Three digits that tell you where you are
Every block number at Allianz Arena has three digits. The first is the tier: 1 for the lower tier (Unterrang), 2 for the middle tier (Mittelrang) and 3 for the upper tier (Oberrang). The other two give the position round the bowl. Numbering starts at the main stand on the west side, runs round the south end, along the east side and across the north end, then closes back at the main stand, so block 136 sits next to block 101 and block 348 next to block 301. The lower tier has 36 blocks, the middle tier 47 and the upper tier 48.
| Side | Lower tier | Middle tier | Upper tier | What is there |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Main stand (west) | 136, 101 to 107 | 201 to 213, corners 214 and 247 | 348, 301 to 307 | Dugouts, tunnel, commentary positions, Business Club |
| South end (Südkurve) | 108 to 117 | 215 to 225 | 308 to 323 | Home end; 109 to 117 are standing |
| East side | 118 to 125 | 227 to 234, corners 226 and 235 | 324 to 331 | The side-on view opposite the dugouts |
| North end (Nordkurve) | 126 to 135 | 236 to 246 | 332 to 347 | 126 to 134 standing except the seated KIDS CLUB rows at the front of 129 to 132; visiting sector in 340 to 347 |
The stadium operator gives the rake of the seating rows as about 24 degrees in the lower tier, 30 in the middle and 34 in the upper, and puts the front rows 7.5 metres from the pitch behind a barrier about 1.2 metres high. Steeper tiers stacked over shallower ones are what keep the upper tier close: you sit above the play instead of a long way behind it.
The operator counts 75,024 places for Bayern home matches, made up of 61,682 seats and 13,342 standing places, 9,336 at the south end and 4,006 at the north. Those standing areas stay open on Champions League nights, because UEFA's programme for standing at club matches covers Germany: the German FA's match data records a sold-out 75,000 for Bayern against Atalanta on 18 March 2026. The operator's 70,000 figure describes the ground with the standing areas fitted with seats, the layout used for a UEFA final.
What each category buys
Bayern sell five price categories, and the category sets the price, not the tier. The grouping below is the one drawn on the 1BoxOffice seat map for Bayern home matches, read on 5 November 2026, set against the club's 2026/27 face values. The club prints the category on the ticket and can adjust blocks match by match, so treat the block lists as the normal pattern and confirm against the listing.
| Category | Blocks | Bundesliga and German cup | Champions League league phase |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Lower tier long sides (101 to 107, 118 to 125, 136); middle tier east (227 to 234); upper tier halfway (303, 304, 327, 328) | €80 (£67) | €100 (£83) |
| 2 | Upper tier long-side flanks (301, 302, 305 to 307, 324 to 326, 329 to 331, 348); middle tier corners (214, 226, 235, 247) | €70 (£58) | €80 (£67) |
| 3 | Middle tier behind both goals (215 to 225, 236 to 246); lower corners (108, 135) | €50 (£42) | €60 (£50) |
| 4 | Upper tier behind both goals (308 to 323, 332 to 339) | €40 (£33) | €50 (£42) |
| 5 | Standing areas (109 to 117, 126 to 134, outside the KIDS CLUB rows) | €15 (£13) | €19 (£16) |
Face values are from FC Bayern's 2026/27 price list, read on 5 November 2026; the Champions League column is the league-phase price for the Slavia Praha and Real Betis matches. Under-14s, over-65s and severely disabled supporters pay half at face value. Sterling figures use €1 to £0.8346, the European Central Bank reference rate of 4 November 2026.
Three things stand out. First, height costs nothing on the halfway line: blocks 303, 304, 327 and 328 in the upper tier carry the same Category 1 price as the lower-tier seats by the dugouts. Second, moving one block along the upper tier, from 304 to 305 or from 328 to 329, drops you to Category 2 for a slightly more off-centre view. Third, the middle tier behind the goals is priced above the upper tier behind the goals for being lower and closer, yet both undercut every long-side seat.
On 5 November 2026, Bayern Munich vs FC Köln tickets for Friday 20 November started from £96.90 on 1BoxOffice, for a Category 4 seat in the upper tier. Standing areas and low face values are part of what sets German football apart, a theme picked up in these Bundesliga facts.

The long sides: the halfway line at three heights
The two long sides give the side-on view that television uses. The main stand on the west side holds the dugouts, the tunnel, the commentary positions and almost all of the hospitality. The east side opposite is where most Category 1 seats on general sale are found.
In the lower tier, blocks 101 to 107 and 136 on the main-stand side and 118 to 125 opposite are the closest seats to the pitch. The 24-degree rake is the shallowest in the ground, so the very front rows look across the pitch at close to player height, over the barrier and the advertising boards, and the far touchline flattens out. A few rows back the angle opens up. A TripAdvisor reviewer who sat in block 121, opposite the benches, reported being satisfied with the view, and the central pair of 121 and 122 is the lower-tier pick on the east side. On the seat map parts of blocks 102 to 105 and block 120 are drawn as hospitality, so a listing there may be a lounge product instead of a plain seat.
The middle tier on the main-stand side, blocks 201 to 213, is given over to the Business Club. The middle tier on the east side, blocks 227 to 234, is the general-sale equivalent and the pick of the ground for a neutral: high enough on a 30-degree rake to see both penalty areas, low enough to read the players. The central blocks, 229 to 232, straddle the halfway line and face the dugouts.
If the opponent matters less than the seat, the full run of home dates sits under Bayern Munich tickets. After Köln on 20 November, Bayern host SC Paderborn on Friday 4 December 2026, Werder Bremen on Friday 18 December and Bayer Leverkusen on Wednesday 13 January 2027, all at 20:30, according to the kick-off times the league fixed on 5 November 2026, as reported by the Abendzeitung. Seats are already on sale for Bayern Munich vs Werder Bremen and Bayern Munich vs Bayer Leverkusen.
The upper tier: steep by design
The upper tier is where first-time visitors hesitate and regulars do not. At about 34 degrees it is the steepest tier in the ground, reached by cascade stairways on the outside of the bowl, of which the operator counts 15. The climb is real and the back rows are high, but the steepness is what stops the pitch drifting away.
Fan reports back that up. A TripAdvisor reviewer in block 348 on the top level reported seeing the whole stadium, and another wrote that the rake means even high or rear seats see well. In a Reddit thread on r/Munich from October 2025, one supporter posted a photograph from the highest row under the roof and said the pitch was clearly visible from almost anywhere in the stadium. Another described the last row of an upper corner as about the furthest seat from the pitch that the ground offers. Fan accounts put the upper tier at around 20 rows, and the useful rule is to buy low: the front half of an upper-tier block gives the raised angle without the full distance of the back rows.
On the halfway line, blocks 303 and 304 on the main-stand side and 327 and 328 on the east side are Category 1. The east pair faces the dugouts. Block 304 carries the one documented obstruction in the ground, covered below, so ask for the exact row and seat there. The flanks either side (301, 302, 305 to 307, 324 to 326, 329 to 331 and 348) are Category 2, and block 301 is where the club places its TEENS CLUB zone.
Behind the goals, blocks 308 to 323 at the south end and 332 to 339 at the north are Category 4. The view is end-on: the near penalty area is laid out beneath you and the far goal is a long way off. The corner blocks (308 to 312, 319 to 323 and 332 to 336) combine the height with the longest diagonal, and their top rows are the weakest general seats in the building. Anyone uneasy with heights or stairs should stay in the lower or middle tier.
Südkurve: €15 to stand, if you can get in
The Südkurve is the south end, and its lower tier, blocks 109 to 117, is Bayern's main standing area: 9,336 places by the operator's count. The centre blocks, 112 and 113, are the core of the organised support. Face value is €15 (£13), the lowest price in the ground, and that is why visitors rarely hold one: the places go overwhelmingly to season-ticket holders and members. None of the listings on 1BoxOffice for the Köln match on 5 November 2026 was a Südkurve standing place.
If you do get in, you stand on the steps for the whole match, flags and banners cross your sightline, supporters sing for most of the match and the far goal is hard to follow. A Bayern regular on Reddit describes the standing blocks as steps without seats. It is the right choice for the noise and the wrong one for watching the game closely, for small children or for anyone who needs to sit.
Two seated options keep you close. Middle-tier blocks 215 to 225 sit directly above the standing area in Category 3 at €50 face value, and upper-tier blocks 308 to 323 above them are Category 4 at €40. From either you are over the noise, though you cannot see the Südkurve display when the teams come out; for that, sit at the north end or on a long side. The Südkurve stays a standing area on Champions League nights too, at €19 face value in the 2026/27 league phase. How a non-member gets any Bayern ticket is a separate subject, covered in the guide to buying Bayern Munich tickets without membership.
Nordkurve: children at the front, visitors under the roof
The north end mirrors the south with a different mix. Lower-tier blocks 126 to 134 hold 4,006 standing places. The first five rows of blocks 129 to 132, directly behind the goal, are seated and reserved as the KIDS CLUB zone: Category 3 at €50 for an adult and €25 for a child in 2026/27, allocated by ballot to club members and not transferable, according to FC Bayern's KIDS CLUB information. A seat report on A View From My Seat from row 5 of block 129 praises the view of the near goal and admits the far end of the pitch is hard to see, which is the honest summary of every low seat behind a goal.
Above, middle-tier blocks 236 to 246 are Category 3 and the upper tier splits in two. Blocks 332 to 339 are Category 4 seats for home and neutral supporters. Blocks 340 to 347 are the visiting sector.
Sources differ at the edges. The stadium operator lists blocks 340 to 347 and adds middle-tier block 242 for league and cup matches when the visiting club's demand calls for it. FC Bayern's price list says visiting supporters are mostly in 339 to 347 and 242 to 246. On the seat map the sector runs from behind the north goal round to the corner that meets the main stand. A visiting-fan guide circulated by Manchester City places the turnstiles in front of blocks 342 to 345 and sends away supporters from Fröttmaning along their own footpath to a guest entrance, not over the main Esplanade.
For a neutral this matters in two ways. The sector is segregated and sold through the visiting club, so a home or neutral supporter has no business there. Blocks 339 and 242 to 246 can be home seats one week and visitors' seats the next. Blocks in and beside the sector do turn up on resale, so check who a seat there is for before paying. Travelling supporters will find the rest of the trip, from the U-Bahn to the beer halls, in the Munich away matchday guide.
The seats fans warn each other about
No source documents a seriously obstructed block at Allianz Arena. The problems are narrow, and most are avoided by reading the block number and asking for the row.
| Where | Problem | Evidence | What to do |
|---|---|---|---|
| Block 304, row 4, seats 5 and 6 | Commentary positions in front block the view | FanSicht's 2026/27 stadium entry | Ask for the exact row and seat in 304, or choose block 303 |
| Top rows of the upper corners (308 to 312, 319 to 323, 332 to 336) | Height plus distance; players are hard to pick out | Reddit r/Munich, October 2025 | Stay in the front half of the block or move to a long side |
| Front rows of the lower tier | Low angle over a 1.2 metre barrier and the advertising boards | The operator's barrier height and 24-degree rake | Sit a few rows up |
| Standing blocks 109 to 117 and 126 to 134, outside the KIDS CLUB rows | No seat at any Bayern home match | Stadium operator and club price list | Buy Categories 1 to 4 if you need to sit |
| Visiting sector 340 to 347 and overflow block 242 | Segregated away support | Stadium operator and club price list | Home and neutral buyers should look elsewhere |
Champions League nights: same map, higher prices
Champions League nights keep both standing areas. UEFA's programme for standing at club matches covers Germany, and the German FA's match data records a sold-out 75,000 for Bayern against Atalanta on 18 March 2026. The categories stay where they are and the prices rise: €100, €80, €60 and €50 for Categories 1 to 4 and €19 for standing in the 2026/27 league phase, with a higher ladder of €130 to €60 for the visit of Arsenal on 21 October 2026, per the club's price list. Arsenal received 3,794 tickets for that match at £34.30 for adults, according to Football Ground Guide's away-end notes of 14 October 2026, which gives a sense of the size of the visiting sector on a European night.
Two league-phase home matches remain: Bayern Munich vs Slavia Praha on Tuesday 8 December 2026 and Bayern Munich vs Real Betis on Wednesday 27 January 2027, both at 21:00 local time. On 5 November 2026 they started from £96.90 and £119.80 on 1BoxOffice. The wider competition sits under Champions League tickets. Bayern also travel to Manchester United in the league phase, and the same block-by-block treatment exists for the best and worst seats at Old Trafford.
For seat choice, the change is the price, not the layout: the standing blocks behind both goals are still the lowest-priced places on a European night. They also carry a risk the seats do not. After repeated use of pyrotechnics, UEFA closed blocks 111 to 114 for the visit of Union Saint-Gilloise on 21 January 2026, and because lower Südkurve tickets are not allocated by block, the club cancelled and refunded all 9,336 lower Südkurve tickets for that match, saying those for blocks 109 to 110 and 115 to 117 might go back on sale later, according to FC Bayern's notice of 8 January 2026.
The German cup works like the league. Bayern host Hertha BSC in the round of 16 of the DFB-Pokal on Tuesday 1 December 2026 at 20:45, per the stadium operator's match calendar, with the standing areas open. The price table for the match on FC Bayern's German-language ticket site runs from €80 in Category 1 to €15 for standing, the same as a league match.
Roof, cold and the low sun
Every spectator is protected from the elements, in the operator's words, and that holds for all three tiers and both standing areas. The pitch itself is open to the sky, so wind can push rain or snow into the front rows of the lower tier on an exposed side. Fan guides mention it; nobody has mapped it row by row.
Cold is the bigger issue. From late November to mid-January the sun sets in Munich before 17:00, so even an afternoon match ends under lights, often close to freezing, while European nights start at 21:00. Dress for three hours outdoors whichever block you choose.
On sun, the evidence conflicts. By compass the east side faces the afternoon sun and the main stand has it behind. One long-standing TripAdvisor answer says the opposite, warning that the main-stand blocks get the sun in their eyes. With a roof over every seat and reports that contradict each other, sun is not a reason to pay more or less for either side.
Families, teenagers and accessible seating
At face value, under-14s, over-65s and severely disabled supporters pay half in every category, so a child's Category 1 seat is €40 and a standing place €7.50, per the club's 2026/27 price list. Those reductions do not travel: the club excludes resale and forwarded tickets from discounts unless the original buyer applied one, so on the secondary market a child needs a ticket at the listed price, and some listings carry age conditions of their own. Read the restriction line before paying.
For a first visit with children, the long sides are the answer in whichever tier the budget reaches. Avoid the standing blocks. Club members have two reserved areas: the KIDS CLUB zone at the front of blocks 129 to 132 and the TEENS CLUB zone in block 301, a Category 2 block for members aged 14 to 17, both allocated by ballot.
The operator lists 324 wheelchair places, each with room for one companion, on the top row of the lower tier along the sides and at the north end, which is the main access level. Supporters with a severe-disability pass are offered seats in blocks 108 and 215, which have posts along the stairs for safer access, and block 135 has Category 3 seats with live audio description for blind and partially sighted fans, per the club's information for disabled supporters. These places are allocated by the club against documentation, and the reduced tickets are valid only together with the holder's disability pass, so buyers should confirm the ticket type and eligibility requirements before buying a seat in these blocks.
Business seats, lounges and boxes
Hospitality sits mostly on the main stand. The operator counts 2,152 business seats and 106 boxes for 1,371 guests, with the boxes forming a band between the middle and upper tiers. The club's single-match hospitality products are listed below with the seat that comes with each.
| Product | Seat location | Price per person | Pitch view from the lounge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Business Club Platinum, Gold and Silver | Main stand, middle tier; Platinum on the halfway line, then Gold, then Silver | €700, €600 and €500 (£584, £501 and £417) | Not stated |
| Sponsoren Lounge | Main stand, lower tier | €600 (£501) | Not stated |
| Säbener Lounge | East side, lower tier | €500 (£417) | No |
| Franz Beckenbauer Lounge | Middle tier, behind the goal | €500 (£417) | No |
| Eventbox 7 and 8 | Middle tier, behind the goal | €550 (£459) | Yes |
| Presenterbox, groups of 10 or 20 | Middle tier, behind the goal | €600 (£501) | Yes |
| Foyer | Upper tier, level with midfield | €400 (£334) | No |
Prices are from FC Bayern's hospitality information, read on 5 November 2026. The seat matters more than the lounge. Platinum Business Club seats are the main-stand mirror of blocks 229 to 232. The lounges behind the goal trade the angle for the price, and the Foyer puts you in the upper tier at midfield, the view of blocks 303 and 304 with catering attached.
NFL and concerts: when the pitch is not a football pitch
The ground stages its third NFL regular-season game on Sunday 15 November 2026, when the Detroit Lions meet the New England Patriots at 15:30 local time, per the stadium operator. The earlier games drew 69,811 in 2022 and 70,132 in 2024, both close to the operator's 70,000 all-seater figure. An American football field is about 20 metres narrower than a football pitch, which leaves the long sides roughly 10 metres further from the touchline, with the squads standing along it. Low rows lose more than high ones, and the halfway-line blocks of the middle and upper tiers become the natural pick. Other games are listed under NFL tickets.
Concerts are a different calculation again. The arena staged Linkin Park, Foo Fighters, The Weeknd, BTS and Helene Fischer in the summer of 2026, according to Munich's tourist office and the operator. The operator says the view depends on the stage position and the production, and concert-goers on Reddit note that the pitch standing area is flat, so shorter fans do better a few rows back from a raised stage than pressed against it. The football verdicts do not carry over: at an end-stage show, the blocks facing the stage from the far end are distant and the long-side blocks nearest the stage see it at an angle. Dates for the city as a whole are under events in Munich.
App tickets, gates and the climb to your block
From 2026/27 every Bayern home ticket is digital and lives in the ticket wallet of the FC Bayern app or the Allianz Arena app, the club announced on 30 April 2026. PDF printouts and passes in Apple Wallet or Google Wallet are no longer supported for entry. Tickets can still be passed on, but only through the club's Digital Ticket Center and the app wallet. Only the person who ordered a ticket can forward it, a recipient cannot forward it again and the original buyer can withdraw a transfer until the ticket is scanned, per the club's app-ticket FAQ; a recipient without a club account can open a guest account. For resale buyers, receiving the ticket in the app is an essential check, but it does not remove the risk. Bayern's ticket terms ban resale outside the club's own channels, state that tickets from sellers the club has not authorised carry no right of entry and allow the club to cancel such tickets and refuse admission without compensation. A marketplace guarantee sets out refund remedies under its own terms; it cannot guarantee admission.
The arena opens two and a quarter hours before kick-off, bags larger than DIN A4 are refused and payment inside is cashless, per the club's matchday information. The U6 from Marienplatz to Fröttmaning takes about 16 minutes and the walk over the Esplanade another 10 to 15. Allow longer for the upper tier, which is reached by stairs. Be in the seat early: a TripAdvisor reviewer who arrived 15 minutes late found the seats taken and needed a security guard to clear them.
Checking the block before you pay
Buying a resale seat at Allianz Arena is a matter of matching three things: the competition, the block number and the way the ticket will reach your phone. The steps below apply the maps above to a listing.
Step1
Fix the match and the competition
The block map is the same for Bundesliga, German cup and Champions League matches, but the prices are not. Check which competition the match belongs to before comparing a ticket with face value.
Step2
Set up an account
Take a minute to create a 1BoxOffice account so that order confirmations and delivery updates reach you once you buy.
Step3
Filter by category, then read the block
Open the match and narrow the tickets by category, quantity and price, then read the block number on each one. The same category covers very different seats: Category 1 runs from the front of the lower tier to the upper-tier halfway blocks.
Step4
Place the block on the map
Use the first digit for the tier and the table above for the side. Blocks 229 to 232, 121 to 122 and 327 to 328 are the halfway-line references on the east side; 303 and 304 are the upper-tier equivalents on the main stand.
Step5
Ask for the row where it matters
Row matters most in block 304, in the upper corners and at the front of the lower tier. Where a ticket shows no row, ask whether it can be confirmed, bearing in mind that a seller may commit only to a category.
Step6
Check who the block is for
Blocks 340 to 347 are the visiting sector and blocks 339 and 242 to 246 can be added to it. Read the restriction line, which states whether a seat is for home, away or neutral supporters and whether age conditions apply.
Step7
Get the ticket into the app
Bayern accept only tickets held in the FC Bayern app or the Allianz Arena app in 2026/27. Check how and when the seller will transfer the ticket and whether it will come from the original buyer, since only that person can forward a Bayern app ticket, then install the app and open a club or guest account before the transfer arrives.
Step8
Track the delivery
Delivery timing depends on the seller and the match, so track the order and make sure the ticket shows in your app wallet before you set off for Fröttmaning.
Allianz Arena seat questions fans keep asking
1. What is the capacity of Allianz Arena?
-
Allianz Arena holds 75,024 for Bayern Munich home matches, including Champions League nights, of which 13,342 are standing places, and 70,000 when the standing areas are fitted with seats, according to the stadium operator and the German FA's match data.
2. Where do away fans sit at Allianz Arena?
-
Away fans sit in the upper tier at the north end in blocks 340 to 347, sometimes with block 339 and middle-tier block 242 added, and use a separate guest entrance.
3. Is Allianz Arena covered?
-
Every seat and standing place at Allianz Arena is under the roof according to the stadium operator, although the pitch is open to the sky and wind can carry rain or snow into the front rows.
4. Can visitors stand in the Südkurve?
-
Anyone holding a valid Category 5 ticket can stand in the Südkurve at Bundesliga, German cup and Champions League matches, although most of those places are held by season-ticket holders and members.
5. Is the upper tier at Allianz Arena too high?
-
The upper tier rises at about 34 degrees and is reached by stairs, so the view of the whole pitch stays clear even from the back rows, but anyone uneasy with heights or steps is better served by the lower or middle tier.
