Allianz Arena is a football stadium in Munich, Bavaria, Germany with a 75,000 seating capacity. It is widely known for its exterior of inflated ETFE plastic panels, and is the first stadium in the world with a full colour changing exterior. Located at 25 Werner-Heisenberg-Allee at the northern edge of Munich’s Schwabing-Freimann borough on the Fröttmaning Heath, it is the second-largest arena in Germany behind Westfalenstadion in Dortmund. The stadium has been nicknamed “Schlauchboot” (“dinghy”) due to its boat-like appearance.
FC Bayern Munich has played its home games at the Allianz Arena since the start of the 2005–06 season. The club had previously played their home games at the Munich Olympic Stadium since 1972. 1860 Munich previously had a 50% share in the stadium, but Bayern Munich purchased their shares for €11 million in April 2006. The arrangement allowed 1860 Munich to play at the stadium while retaining no ownership until 2025. However, in July 2017 the rental contract was terminated, making Bayern Munich the sole tenants of the stadium.
The large financial services provider Allianz purchased the naming rights to the stadium for 30 years. However, the name is not used when hosting FIFA and UEFA events due to both organisations fobidding corporate sponsorship from companies that are not official tournament partners. During the 2006 FIFA World Cup, the stadium was referred to as FIFA WM-Stadion München (FIFA World Cup Stadium, Munich). In UEFA club and Nations League matches, it is known as Fußball Arena München (Football Arena Munich) and it hosted the 2012 UEFA Champions League Final. Further information can be found below:
