Tips for Visiting Max-Morlock-Stadion #

  • Use public transport rather than driving on match or event days - Nuremberg's transit network is designed to handle stadium crowds and will usually be faster than finding parking.
  • Arrive well before kick-off or the advertised event start to avoid long entry queues and to take advantage of pre-game fan zones and concessions.
  • Combine a stadium visit with a walk around the adjacent Dutzendteich park or a visit to the Documentation Centre for the Nazi Party Rally Grounds nearby if you're interested in local history and want to make a half-day of the area.
