    (PRESS RELEASE) DORNBIRN, 30-Sep-2024 — /EuropaWire/ — Munich’s iconic Olympic Park is set to welcome a new landmark with the completion of SAP Garden, a state-of-the-art sports and event venue. Boasting a unique asymmetrical design and capacity for 11,500 spectators, the arena will become home to two German champion teams, including the EHC Red Bull München ice hockey team, starting from late summer 2024.
