Demolition and new arena
The Radstadion was demolished in 2015 to make way for a new multi-purpose arena. The SAP Garden will offer a maximum of 12,500 seats and should cost around 100 million euros. It will be the new home of the ice hockey club EHC Red Bull München and the basketball team of Bayern Munich. The construction of the new arena should begin in the winter of 2019 with the groundbreaking ceremony. In the late summer of 2021, the SAP Garden should be completed. The new building is designed by Danish architects 3XN. The costs are borne by the owner of the EHC Red Bull München, the Red Bull GmbH.{{cite web |title=München: SAP Garden - neue Sportarena hat einen Namen |url=https://www.abendzeitung-muenchen.de/inhalt.im-olympiapark-muenchen-sap-garden-neue-sportarena-hat-einen-namen.4c5247d9-0b4d-4109-8117-546c92c65058.html |publisher=Abendzeitung |date=March 20, 2019 |access-date=March 21, 2019 |language=de }}
