The Allianz Arena had a rough 2025/26 season and a tougher summer.

This surface should last until mid-November when the NFL comes to town, which will almost assuredly result in another full replacement. There is also the possibility that a new surface is installed prior to the NFL game as well.
The NFL’s New England Patriots and Detroit Lions will play at the Allianz Arena on Sunday, November 15th at 9:30 AM EST.
