Around 100 teams from 9 countries! The Isar Cup in Moosburg once again promises to be a true international football festival. The inhabitants of the town on the River Isar, just north of Munich, get really involved in the international tournament held by the two local football clubs. And the guests can tell, because the matches are well attended. The BBQ will be grilling away merrily while the balls are rolling across the immaculate pitches. The many volunteers from JFG Moosburg & FC Moosburg outdo themselves every year and are rewarded with favourable comments and of course plenty of returning guests.
Optional: tour of the Allianz Arena (1:00 pm – 6:00 pm)
The tournament will be held at a beautiful sports park in rural Moosburg, half an hour’s drive from Munich. The matches will be officiated by referees from the BFV.
The Isar Cup is a joint project of the local associations, TSV Moosburg Land and FC Moosburg. The project is actively supported by the municipality and the Bavarian Football Association, which also supplies the referees.
The Isar Cup tournament is played at the Neustadt sports park on the outskirts of the town of Moosburg. This sports park has 6 pitches, a club house with a terrace and a main pitch with a stand for 500 spectators. Participants can also take advantage of the skate park, a beach volleyball court, two street football pitches and the heated outdoor swimming pool 'Freibad Moosburg'.

Folklore and modernity go hand in hand in Munich. Munich is the city of the historic Marienplatz and its beautifully decorated buildings. It is the city of the Oktoberfest with happy people in ‘lederhosen’ and ‘dirndl’ dresses. Car enthusiasts will no doubt think of BMW, but the main attraction is, of course, FC Bayern Munich and the Allianz Arena! The atmospheric centre is full of old Bavarian architecture, lively shopping streets and numerous terraces that are pleasantly filled during stretches of fine weather. Munich is definitely worth a visit!
Munich is perfect for shopping and good food. You’ll find shops, cafés and traditional Bavarian eateries on and around the central Marienplatz square. Would you like to supplement your vitamins after the games? If so, pay a visit to Munich's famous daily market, the Viktualienmarkt, near the Marienplatz. Here you can enjoy a wide range of cheap delicacies, like sausages, sandwiches and many other traditional Bavarian treats. Then go and enjoy it in the Biergarten. You’re welcome to bring your own food, as long as you buy your drinks in the Biergarten. So, it’s also a fine, budget-proof solution!
