FC Bayern Munich Official Bayern Munich website - http://www.fcbayern.t-home.de/ Tickets - With almost every game sold out to club members and season ticket holders, tickets for Bayern games are something of a scarcity. Any tickets that are available go on sale through the club's website . Champions League and German cup matches are your best bet. Alternatively, sack Bayern off and go and watch TSV 1860 play at the Allianz Arena instead. Tickets are always available for them. Stadium - Built to replace the iconic but ageing Olympic Stadium for the 2006 World Cup, the 70,000 capacity Allianz Arena is one of the most technologically advanced stadiums in the world. For detailed instructions on how to get there, please click here. Ultra Culture - Bayern's Schickeria München ultras are housed in the Sudkurve of the Allianz.

Nightlife - Down a stein or two in the famous Hofbrauhaus bierkeller in the middle of town, but don't hang around too long. Head a mile or so north to the Schwabing university district instead.
