A barrier-free Allianz Arena
The Allianz Arena in München-Fröttmaning was specifically designed to allow mobility-impaired visitors to enjoy their stay at the Arena. Building on the experience and observations of previous visitors, the Allianz Arena has become a milestone project in giving every fan the experience of a lifetime. The following document contains important information regarding the 165 wheelchair places:
Information for disabled visitors
Arrival and parking
- 130 parking spaces for disabled visitors are located on level 3 of car park P1 (P1 is clearly signposted from the public access roads). These parking spaces are closest to the Arena. From this point, wheelchair users benefit from unhindered access to their viewing position.
- On production of the appropriate permit, wheelchair users may make use of disabled access to staircases TK 2 and TK 3 (access via S0/S1). Lifts are available here for Promenade level 2. Special buses are available for the return journey.
- People with severe disabilities are transferred to elevators on level 0 (taking them to their seats) by special-purpose vehicles.
- There is also an barrier-free route from the underground station to the Arena. Lifts and escalators are available at the south end of the platform. A pedestrian bridge leads to the Fröttmaning P+R facility, with another lift leading to ground level. A shuttle service from the Fröttmaning underground station to the stadium is not available.
Parking regulations for severely disabled visitors
Severely disabled visitors may park in the reserved spaces in car park P1 for free on match days, provided they are in possession of the official blue parking parking permit (wheelchair symbol).
This permit can only be issued to Munich residents identified as “strongly mobility impaired” or “blind”.
Ownership of the green disability card (issued by the Zentrum Bayern Familie und Soziales) does not qualify for free parking.
