BMW Welt
Amusement Park Automotive experience center and BMW showcase in Munich
Next to Munich’s Olympiapark, BMW Welt showcases brand exhibitions, vehicle delivery services and rotating displays; visitors pair it with the BMW Museum and factory tours.
BMW Welt is a multifunctional exhibition, delivery and events building in Munich, Germany, located next to the BMW Museum and the BMW headquarters. It was built in the 2000s and is recognised for its modern architecture and public-facing presentation of the BMW brand.
The centre includes large exhibition halls that display current BMW models, technology demonstrations and brand exhibitions, plus spaces used for temporary shows and events. A central delivery area allows customers to receive new vehicles on site, a distinctive part of the BMW Welt experience.
BMW Welt was developed to link BMW’s corporate campus with a public visitor experience and to act as a hands-on showcase for mobility, design and company history. It operates alongside the adjacent BMW Museum and the nearby factory complex.
The building stands in the Milbertshofen-Am Hart area of Munich, close to the Olympic Park and accessible from central Munich by public transport.
- Function: Designed as a combination of showroom, exhibition centre and event venue adjacent to BMW's museum and headquarters in Munich.
- Opening and architecture: Opened in the 2000s and noted for its contemporary architecture and visitor-oriented experience of the BMW brand.

How to Get to BMW Welt #
BMW Welt sits beside Munich’s Olympiapark and the BMW Museum. Take the Munich U‑Bahn to the Olympiazentrum station (short walk) or use local buses serving the Olympiapark area; from central Munich the drive is about 6-8 km (typically 15-25 minutes by car depending on traffic). From Munich Hauptbahnhof you can reach Olympiazentrum easily by U‑bahn and a brief walk to the BMW complex.
Tips for Visiting BMW Welt #
- Visit BMW Welt early in the morning or late afternoon to avoid peak visitor flows and to get clearer sightlines in the exhibition spaces and the delivery area.
- Book any factory or museum tours in advance - guided tours and the car-delivery experience have limited spaces and often require reservations through BMW's official booking system.
- Combine your visit with a short walk through the adjacent Olympic Park and the BMW Museum to see different aspects of the company's history and to avoid missing exhibits that sit outside BMW Welt itself.
Best Time to Visit BMW Welt #
Go on a weekday morning outside major Munich event dates for the calmest visit and shortest lines at this indoor/visitor centre.
