Almost all venues are located in the city centre. You can use the Check-In address as your destination address:

Parking
Parking at the roadside is only free on Sundays and after 11 pm until the morning. Normally parking at the roadside or in parking structures is quite expensive. The parking structure "Parkhaus am Stachus", which is across the Kolpinghaus in the Adolf-Kolping-Straße 10, gave us a special deal. You can park for a reduced price. You just need to pick up the parking vouchers at the Check-In.
A full day ticket is 10 € and an evening ticket (5 pm to 8 am) is 3 €. Because the parking structure closes at night be aware of the opening hours.
