The 2026 NFL Munich Game puts the New England Patriots against the Detroit Lions on Sunday 15 November 2026 at the FC Bayern Munich stadium, the Allianz Arena, with kickoff listed by the NFL at 3:30 CET, according to the official NFL Munich Game page. It is a regular-season game, played in Germany as part of the NFL's international programme, and it draws fans from Boston and Detroit as well as from across Germany and the rest of Europe.
For a one-day event with tens of thousands of people arriving at the same stadium within a few hours, the ground plan is simple: land, rest, get to the game without the crowd, and get back without the scramble. Elly8.net books that plan at fixed, all-in Munich prices, from US$200 in a business sedan from Munich Airport to the Altstadt, with game-day cars by the hour and Sprinters for groups.
What is the best way to get to the NFL Munich Game?
Fly into Munich Airport (MUC) a day or two early and book a fixed transfer to your hotel, from US$200 in a business sedan to US$520 in an Executive Sprinter. On game day, book a car or Sprinter by the hour, from US$85 an hour with a 3-hour minimum, with an agreed pickup point after the final whistle.
The NFL notes that tickets are limited to six per account per game, that digital tickets reach the booking email up to 72 hours before kickoff, and that hospitality packages for the Munich game were unavailable when we checked. Sort the tickets first, then book the cars around them.
Where the stadium sits
The stadium lies on the northern side of the city, on the road from the Altstadt toward the airport. By road it is about 13 km (8 mi) from the Altstadt, around 18 minutes on a clear road, and about 30 km (19 mi) from Munich Airport, around 23 minutes on a clear road. On game day the clear road disappears for a few hours either side of kickoff, as tens of thousands of people head to the same place by car, coach and train.
| Route | Distance | Clear-road time | Elly8.net fixed fare |
|---|---|---|---|
| Munich Airport (MUC) to the Altstadt | about 38 km (24 mi) | about 34 min | from US$200 to US$520 |
| MUC round trip to the Altstadt | from US$380 to US$990 | ||
| Altstadt to the stadium | about 13 km (8 mi) | about 18 min | by the hour from US$85 an hour |
| MUC to the stadium | about 30 km (19 mi) | about 23 min | quote in the web booker |
Because the stadium is closer to the airport than the city centre is, some fans who arrive on the morning of the game go straight from the plane to the stadium area, with luggage. That works only with a car that holds the bags during the game; tell the desk if that is your plan and we price it as one booking.
Arriving at Munich Airport
Munich Airport has two terminals. Terminal 2 works with its satellite building, and Terminal 1 gained a new pier for non-Schengen traffic, designed for long-haul travellers, which Munich Airport put into regular operation on 21 April 2026. Flights from the US and Canada arrive at one or the other depending on the airline, so the flight number you give us decides where the chauffeur waits.
The chauffeur tracks the flight, meets you in the arrivals hall with a name board and allows complimentary waiting after a tracked landing, which matters after a long immigration queue on an overnight flight. Transfers from MUC to the Altstadt run from US$200 in a business sedan and US$260 in a business SUV to US$520 in an Executive Sprinter, all-in with chauffeur, taxes, standard gratuity and meet and greet. Round trips booked together run from US$380 to US$990. See airport transfers and meet and greet.
Fans travelling privately can give the desk the tail number and handler, and the chauffeur meets the aircraft; see private jet and FBO transfers.
The game-day plan
Getting there. Leave early: the roads and trains toward the stadium are busiest in the last two hours before kickoff. A chauffeur by the hour collects you from the hotel, drops you at the closest point the traffic management allows on the day, and waits at a pickup point agreed in advance. In Munich, hourly service runs from US$85 in a business sedan to US$170 in an Executive Sprinter, with a 3-hour minimum.
Getting back. The hardest part of any stadium day is the hour after the final whistle, when everyone leaves at once. The chauffeur messages you the exact pickup point and vehicle details before the game, so you walk straight to the car instead of searching for a taxi. Expect a walk from the stadium to the car: on big game days private cars wait where traffic management allows, not at the gates.
The 5-hour game package. For most fans, the evening out and event night package is the simplest fit: five hours with the same chauffeur, from US$425 in a business sedan to US$850 in an Executive Sprinter. It covers the drive out, the wait and the return to the city, or on to dinner. See sports event transportation.
Groups and supporters' trips. Supporters' clubs, corporate groups and families travelling together fit in one Executive Sprinter, one driver and one pickup point. For larger parties, see group transportation and event transportation.
Corporate hospitality. Companies hosting clients at the game book a corporate account and keep every car on one invoice, itemised by guest. A full-day chauffeur runs from US$630 to US$1,255 for 8 hours, and the 10-hour corporate roadshow day from US$765 to US$1,530, which covers a business meeting in the morning and the game in the afternoon. Agencies arranging fan travel can use a travel agent account.
Teams, media and VIPs. The desk handles quiet arrivals at hotel side entrances and NDAs on request. Elly8.net is a chauffeur service, not a security company; if a principal travels with protection, we coordinate times and pickup points with the security lead.
The weekend around the game
Most fans who cross the Atlantic for the game stay longer. The private city highlights tour, from US$340 in a business sedan to US$680 in an Executive Sprinter, covers Marienplatz, the Residenz, the English Garden, Nymphenburg Palace and the Olympic Park. See private city tours.
The signature Munich day trip is a 10-hour visit to Neuschwanstein Castle in the Bavarian foothills, from US$785 in a business sedan to US$1,565 in an Executive Sprinter, with the chauffeur waiting while you visit. In mid-November the days are short, so the desk plans an early start. Going further, Elly8.net covers Zurich, Prague, Frankfurt and Venice with the same desk, and a city-to-city car service can take you there by road.
Elly8.net vs the S-Bahn, the airport bus, taxis and apps
Munich has excellent public transport, and for many fans it is the right choice. According to Munich Airport's FAQ, S-Bahn lines S1 and S8 leave for the city centre every 20 minutes and take about 45 minutes to the main station, and the Lufthansa Airport Bus also runs every 20 minutes to the Hauptbahnhof via Schwabing in about 35 minutes. Inside the city, MVG runs the U-Bahn, trams and buses, including the U-Bahn service toward the stadium.
| Option | Price | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| S-Bahn S1 or S8 from the airport | public transport fare | solo travellers with light bags |
| Lufthansa Airport Bus | bus fare | travellers going to the Hauptbahnhof or Schwabing |
| Taxi from the rank | metered | two travellers, no booking needed |
| Elly8.net business sedan from MUC | from US$200, fixed and all-in | families, late arrivals, fixed budgets |
| Elly8.net Executive Sprinter from MUC | from US$520, fixed and all-in | groups with luggage |
Taxis at Munich Airport charge by the meter, and with the airport about 38 km from the Altstadt the metered total adds up. The honest reading: one fan with a backpack does well on the S-Bahn. A pre-booked car wins for families with children who need seats, groups with luggage, anyone arriving tired from an overnight flight, and anyone who wants a guaranteed ride back from the stadium at a fixed price. See chauffeur vs taxi and chauffeur vs Uber and Lyft.
