SAP Garden echoes the same democratic ideals as its historic surroundings, uniting sports and local community in a state-of-the-art sports arena. It is the new home of ice hockey team EHC Red Bull Munich and basketball team Bayern Munich while three additional ice rinks serve as training and public facilities. Built on the site of the former Olympic Velodrome and with Frei Otto and Günther Benisch’s iconic Olympic Stadium as its neighbour, the new SAP Garden arena is informed by the legacy of its location and surroundings. The 62.500m² arena project is designed by 3XN in collaboration with CL MAP and landscape architects Latz + Partner for client Red Bull.
