Showpalast München, Entertainment theater in Fröttmaning district, Munich, Germany
Showpalast München is an entertainment theater in the Fröttmaning district of Munich, built with a large stage designed to host equestrian art shows and acrobatic productions. The venue also has an outdoor beer garden area attached to the main building.
Showpalast München opened in 2017 as a permanent theatre built for the Apassionata horse show, designed by Graft Architects in a timber grid shell. Around it a theme park opened on 18 August 2018, renamed several times before becoming Cavalluna Park. The Munich city council plans to demolish the building in 2028 to make way for a tram and bus depot.
The shows at Showpalast München combine horse riding, acrobatics, and live music in a single evening program. Audiences sit close to the action, which makes the performance feel direct and immediate.
The theater is located near Allianz Arena in the north of Munich and is easy to reach by public transport. Arriving a little early gives you time to explore the outdoor area before the show begins.
The building's outer facade carries a praxinoscope-like pattern of galloping horses, while the largest LED wall in Europe, with almost 600 square metres of screen, sits inside the auditorium. The wooden lattice shell was designed by Graft Architekten.
