Tips & Advice
- Take the regional train to the special Kainzenbad stop, which sits directly opposite the Olympic ski stadium, about a 100 m walk from the grounds.
- Leave food, drinks and glass bottles at home, since bags are checked and vendors in the fan park sell snacks and hot and cold drinks.
- On New Year's Eve, park in the green zone, because no shuttle serves the red zone that day and local buses from the green zone are free.
- Book your accommodation early if you are staying several days, as Garmisch-Partenkirchen books out very quickly over the holidays and New Year's Eve.
- Leave pets at home and park strollers outside if you hold VIP tickets, because animals are banned from the stadium and strollers from the VIP area.
