The Olympic Stadium was built for when Munich hosted the 1972 Games, and is set to be a key venue for the 2022 European Championships in the city.

Track and field events are set to be held in the Olympic Stadium come 2022.

Türkgücü Munich, a club founded by Turkish immigrants and promoted to the third division last season, has been given permission to play up to eight home matches at the stadium this season.

The club is without a permanent home and also using the Grünwalder Stadion, which is home to fellow 3. Liga sides 1860 Munich and Bayern Munich II.

The first Türkgücü match at the Olympic Stadium finished 0-0, versus Wehen Wiesbaden, on October 10.

In 2002, the European Athletics Championships were held at the venue.
