berlin calling Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Dusseldorf fames itself for the "longest bar in the world", its a good 250+ bars located in the old town center that make for a good night out. neighbouring city to Cologne, both center of german carnival season... come November a trip could be just as much fun as to Munich i guess. stadium is **** tough, oldest of the three, cannot see it have the technical standard for an NFL game.

Daniel Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Only briefly been to Frankfurt and never Dusseldorf, but Munich is a kickass city. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinSting Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Last time I visited Frankfurt I went to a wine-tasting event so can't remember much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Techno capital of Europe, probably worldwide, with some really great clubs but as said, not sure that would attract people coimg there to watch football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know Berlin has the biggest population for an individual city there, but correct me if I'm wrong, seems to me like the main population belt is like the Dortmund, Essen, Dusseldorf, Rhine area? I think it should probably go there if so. Must be easy on your train and road network to get there 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
///mcompact Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 If the NFL had half a brain, they’d host the game in Ausfahrt, the largest city in Germany. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From a party and general good vibes standpoint Berlin is up there, but it's infrastructure pales in comparison to Munich and Frankfurt which are still two great cities. I live in London, if it's the final two weekends of October they schedule a game for there I'd happily go across as a spectator. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The airport is absolutely huge and (like everywhere in Germany) the public transport infrastructure is great. I just didn't enjoy the bars/pubs/restaurants and as an Englishman, that is EVERYTHING to me Hopefully Munich gets it. What an unbelievable City that is. I felt the exact same way about Dusseldorf when I went. Absolute toilet of a city. I've always wanted to do a city break to Munich so if it is chosen and there's a decent matchup I might well get a ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
