In addition to his well-known hits 'Musik sein' and 'Feuerwerk', the songwriter will present other titles to the fans at the BayArena. "After the great success with Max Giesinger last year, we are proud to present another star performer ahead of an important friendly," declared event manager Stephan Rehm.
The BayArena will open two hours before kick-off. From 12 noon all visitors will have the opportunity to take part in all the fun throughout the concourses at the BayArena. All the players will be presented in the stadium before kick-off. And, of course, the obligatory autograph session will take place after the match.
