Friday 10 June 2016 | Live Performance | Olympiastadion, Munich, Germany

On 10 June 2016, Paul McCartney performed at the Olympiastadion in Munich, Germany — the 16th show of the One on One Tour, which ran for 77 dates between April 2016 and December 2017.

The One on One Tour

The One on One Tour was Paul McCartney's major world touring campaign of 2016–17, taking in North America, South America, Europe, Japan, and Australasia. It opened on 13 April 2016 in Fresno, California, and closed on 16 December 2017 in Auckland, New Zealand. The tour included landmark performances at Desert Trip in Indio, California (October 2016 — the festival that brought together McCartney, the Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Roger Waters, and The Who), Madison Square Garden in New York, and the Estadio Azteca in Mexico City.

The Olympiastadion, Munich

The Olympiastadion in Munich is one of the most architecturally celebrated sports venues in the world. Built for the 1972 Summer Olympics, it was designed by the architect Günter Behnisch with the engineer Frei Otto, whose revolutionary tensile roof structure — a sweeping canopy of acrylic glass panels supported by steel masts and cables — became one of the defining images of 1970s architecture. The stadium has a capacity of approximately 69,000 and served as the home of Bayern Munich until the opening of the Allianz Arena in 2005.
