Important Spots
Flughafen München (Munich Airport)
Munich’s airport is situated about 20 kilometers (15 miles) outside
of the city. Still, there is one rather big club there called Nightflight
(very modern with mixed music and people)
Hauptbahnhof (Central Station)
Many strip clubs and cheap hotels around here. Clubs and dicos not more
than 5 to 10 minutes away by foot are Regency
(people aged 25+), Palais
Club Prive (former brothel, now house music), Nachtgalerie
(about thousand people and cheap drinkig at the weekends) and Munich
55 (once a bavarian pub, now redesigned into a Club-Bar)
Ostbahnhof
Exit in the direction of „Orleansplatz“ , cross
the big bus station and the main street to get to some of the best and
cosiest bars in munich, which this district called „Haidhausen“
is famous for.
Or head straight away from „Orleansplatz“ and follow
the „Kultfabrik/Kunstpark Ost“ and „Optimol“
signs to get to these two party areas. Five minutes away and situated
directly next to each other, they offer probably the biggest party mall
in europe, combining more than 26 clubs and bars on an area about a
square kilometer in size.
"Schwabing" (at "Münchner Freiheit" station)
Munich's district "Schwabing" and it’s main street „Leopoldstrasse“
are synonymical for some of the best and most famous bars in munich.
Choose „Stadtteil : Schwabing – West“ at
the „Locations“ mask to get a list of the most
well-known bars and clubs there. Some of the latter worth mentioning
are Skyline (at
the upper floor of a building with panorama view), Prager
Frühling (50ies style decoration, mixed music), Frankies
(black and mixed music) and Reitschule
Orangerie (often hosting well-reputated and big in-parties).
Other well-known locations and events
Oktoberfest (called „Wiesn“ among bavarians): Biggest
mall in the world, every year for two weeks from the 3rd Saturday in
september on. Many facts can be found at www.oktoberfest.de/en/home/
Hofbräuhaus: Many foreigners know this one, more details
here.
Rathaus: seat of munich’s major, directly at the center
of munich.
Frauenkirche: Munich’s city symbol, only several hundred
feet away from the Rathaus
The 3 P’s
Pacha, Parkcafe, P1. These three discotheques represent the
common stereotypes about munich and it’s inhabitants among germans
from other major cities like Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne or Frankfurt.
Snobby and pretentious people in clubs with very strict doormen (e.g.
at P1 only members and well-known guests, called “Stammgäste”
are granted entry) trying to stay undisturbed within a small circle
of elitist and high society people, nick-named “Schicki-Micki”
among munich’s citizens. Some other clubs try to imitate them
with more or less success by keeping their door very hard and letting
only fashy/pretty/... people in ( we call that “Pseudo-Schicki-Micki”),
which can be very upsetting if you’re new in the city and don’t
know where to go. Keep an eye on our eventdetail called “Publikum”
to avoid being rejected at the door.
