Things to Know Before You Go

Via public transportation, take any train from Hauptbahnhof (Central Station) directly to the venue; expect about a 7-minute ride. Bicycle racks are also available.
When to Get There
Gasteig is open daily. Check schedules for timing on programmed events. Beat the crowds and enjoy temperate weather by visiting Munich from March to May and from September to November. The month-long festivities of Oktoberfest are a huge draw.
Loitering is Nice
The philharmonic hall's wood-paneled shell structure showcases mainly instrumental and vocal performance, while smaller theaters offer theater and dance.

Have a coffee or glass of wine at the cafe and enjoy free people-watching in the foyer.
