Wirtekrug tip!
Collectors beware! Who still wants a Wirtekrug , should strike fast. The pitchers were sold out at the manufacturer before the start of the season (ie 2016 )! Thus, the beer mugs are also only available while stocks last! Request pitchers ...
Redeem vouchers Often asked ... I still have Marker left. Are they invalid now? No! Because with all large tents you can still redeem the leftover or unused food vouchers after the party. In unison until at least the end of October, the tokens continue to apply in the parent houses of the farmers. All information, dates, and addresses under vouchers ...
Registration Feer
Attention date! Pay attention! Anyone who wants to be represented with a booth or ride at the Oktoberfest 2018, must be present until 31 December apply to the city. Here, in addition to a description of the business and various forms must be completed.
As a tip - It is very important that the documents are actually received by the end of the year in the city. Because the 31.12 applies to all applicants as an exclusion period. Ie who comes afterward has bad luck! So send the documents a little earlier.
Or bring the application directly to the city personally. I wish you success!
Short record...
The Oktoberfest closes after 18 days long party with about 6.2 million visitors and the 7.5 million liters of beer served. Visitors from near and far celebrated peacefully and hilariously together in the tents and on the fairground.
There were no special occurrences on the whole. And so at the press conference, the police and rescue workers were also satisfied with the event management.
Trends and special features
What was special this year? There were fewer Italians! This especially on the traditional " Italian weekend ". Because meanwhile the three weekends at the "our southern neighbors"La Festa della Birra a Monaco di Baviera "almost evenly visited.
Even the Munich festival was rather decelerated this year. And not just on the" Oiden Wiesn ", which attracted around half a million visitors.
The two new marquees" Beauty Queen "(Oide Wiesn) and the completely remodeled ox-roasting (Spatzenzelt) were very well received by the guests in addition to the beautiful design of the smell of fresh wood mixed with the scent of Hendl and Haxn on
Anticipation for 2018
Out is! After a wonderful and emotional Wiesnausklang on Tuesday, we are all looking forward to the next year! Oktoberfest 2018 will run from 22nd September to 7th October 2018.
Due to the fact that the holiday (03.10 is a Wednesday) is in the middle of the second week of the festival, the Wiesn 2018 will not be extended either. Thus, we have "only" 16 days in 2018 to celebrate on the Theresienwiese. Long weekend
Let's go Madl and Baum! The long weekend begins and thus 5 days long party in Munich. From Friday, 29.09 to Tuesday, 03. October, it's all about the Theresienwiese. The beer is cold, the tents are fully booked. Now only has to keep the good weather.
Dates and Events
Our event tip for the last weekend is the " Böllerschiessen " on Tuesday. Here is Bavaria for the " Oktoberfest-Landesschiessen " shot by the Bavarian sports marksmen big salute in front of Bavaria.
A real experience is also the " Wiesnausklang" In the tents on the last night. Here is the in the last hour of visitors, hosts and waiters Oktoberfest adopted.
Those who want to can still ticket securely.
Thunder and lightning
During a brief but violent thunderstorm over Munich, nature showed its concentrated power. In the middle of the celebration poured on Sunday evening a downpour with lightning and thunder on the fairground.
The showmen reacted quickly and switched off their rides. And the visitors also sought refuge in the tents and stalls. In the storm, there were even two lightning strikes on the festival meadow. Thus, the lightning in the marquee has hit tradition and in a ride. Scuba! But nothing has happened.
Because all tents and carousels in Munich must be equipped with a lightning protection. And so, a short time later, the haunt was over,
Stand concert on Sunday
All who have desire and time should come to Bavaria on Sunday noon (24.09). Here the traditional " Stand Concert " takes place from 11.00 o'clock.
The bands and bands of the Wiesn tents all play together on the steps to the Hall of Fame. The colorful troupe is led or directed by Munich vipers and celebrities. Watching (or listening) is again possible for free. Tip - For all, who can not be there live this year, the Bavarian Broadcasting Corporation (BR) is broadcasting the concert again in parallel on television.
Sunny Weekend
The middle weekend is traditionally considered "Italian weekend. "And even though" Bella Italia" meanwhile discovered the other Saturdays as well, this year many thousands of Madl and Baum from Italy came over the Brenner Pass to celebrate in Munich. Conclusion - Great weather, best atmosphere, full of the fairground and flirting alarm in the tents!
Police & Co
The Wiesnwache is busy again tweeting. And also the Federal Police reported online. Also criticized the " Association against fraudulent pouring" after a test, that is also often insufficiently poured in. Tip - If the ordered Masskrug is not quite full, you can refill you (in all tents and all hosts!)
Offers for the last weekend
For Friday (29.09) and Saturday (30.09) are the tables and individual seats away. If short again comes in something new, we will inform you about it here.
Arranging tables Tip!
Anyone who still has Oktoberfest tables can report this to us for mediation. Please, only serious offers! Besides the name, telephone and e-mail please also indicate the respective tent, day and time as well as a number of seats and vouchers. Report here ...
Like every year, the week came again lots of celebrities, VIPs, stars and starlets to the show on the " largest catwalk in the world " to Munich. Including the " FC Bayern ", traditionally in the beetle tent celebrates. In addition to the management and coaches, players and their girls also came in costume.
The " Drifting Coaster " (see News ) did not work for an hour. A technical problem paralyzed the ride. Bitter for guests and operators! And the " cloud of smoke over the Oktoberfest ", which was reported on Thursday morning, came through a broken sweeper, which was on fire.

Race to the tents
Run on one of the coveted seats in the tents is unbroken. After the fairgrounds have been fenced off since 2016 and access for visitors since this year is only possible from 9:00 am, there are scenes like the one in the " sales office " in the city center.
As soon as the entrances are released from the folders, the race for the vacant places is ignited. So a crowd of people storms across the fairground to the entrances of the beer tents.
Tip - if possible, do not block the masses. That could end badly ...

Safety - Spring
Also on the topic " Safety "has the event management of the "Munich spring festival on the Theresienwiese "apparently nothing to say." So the topic in the press kit is mentioned with no word and inquiries are simply ignored. What is that?
Hotel and room booking
We advise visitors from outside, in time a hotel or a With us you will find tips for the room reservation, offers of hotels in Munich follow. Then you can compare with the " Booking Tool " rooms and book
Online. Hurrah, spring is here!
In keeping with the beautiful weather, the Volksfest season begins in Munich. On March 31, the Puchheimer Volksfest starts. Three weeks later, the spring meadows on the Theresienwiese are ready to go. Let's start on the Friday after Easter. The best folk festivals ...
You do not treat yourself otherwise
Who says that the people of Munich spend their " savings " on their ideas, they are wrong. The latest idea of the fixed line is a million-euro public address system. Here then once for a 3/4 million euros holes are dug and cables are laid.
Add to this every year then the rent of a speaker system (because renting is cheaper than buying). This should be a contract for the next 5 years. Altogether so over 4 million euros in the conversation. Jo Leit so spared in Minga! There is paddling and not messed up.
Men without nerves
What's new to report? Not very much. Except for the fact that the big coalition in the Munich city hall (GroKo from SPD and CSU) threatens to break. Are the quarrels about social projects or even existential problems? But no - it's about the price of a mass beer at a folk festival! In the room is that the city needs about 4 to 5 million euros, in addition, to finance the security measures at the Oktoberfest.
And the parties are currently arguing about it like the tinkers. However, one might get the impression that it is more about profiling and being right than about finding serious solutions to the problem.
What are the latest ideas to finance the millions deficit (see above)? Among others, the fixed stand costs of the marquees could be replaced by a percentage " turnover lease ".
At the same time, the beer prices should then be "capped" ( beer price break ), so that the hosts do not pass on their additional costs to the guests. In the "return" the landlords are allowed to accept table reservations on the last day (03.10.). Actually, the day should remain " reservation-free ". Gwiss is nothing but nothing!
In the ideas for the funding gap is also an extension of the folk festival by an additional Dienstag in conversation. An " additional day " sounds really good for fans of course. However, the idea is not new. So there was this proposal in recent years several times. Especially in the times when the Oktoberfest and the beer tents bursting at the seams, they wanted to extend. Ultimately, however, it was repeatedly found that an extension is not meant to implement. Look ma times, if this year it will be.
Neue Festhalle In
2015 we got a new Schützenzelt, in 2016 the hacker tent followed with a newly renovated marquee. And this year? Get the ox roast facelift. Although there is no official statement yet. But when it's time to work on a new Oktoberfest tent, talk about it.
And so the new building is already on everyone's lips. But there are still no pictures, it is speculated. A few key facts - the oversized grill for the steers should remain.
Likewise the manschgerl above the entrance and the number of seats in a tent and beer garden (more is not, would not be approved). Completely new is the kitchen area and the toilet facilities.
More toilets was also an important issue for the other tent new buildings. Outside we must say goodbye to the old, swinging facade. Like the newSpatenzelt, we are looking forward to the Oktoberfest setup at the very latest. Do change mia then scho, wos d 'Burschn do so ois zammabastln.
A dispute over the beer price
Ring-free! The city hall is currently around. Wiesnchef Schmid (CSU) rehearses the solo effort and OB rider (SPD) is angry. Proposed is a " beer price break ". The idea of freezing the beer prices at the Volksfest for three years.
So the festival beer is to cost until Octoberfest 2019 with all hosts uniformly 10.70 euro. And not a penny more. And here we go to the tranquil cosmopolitan city. The hosts go to the barricades, the press headlines ""and speaks of" populism" and" planned economy. "And even the guardians of the cartel office are to be called in. Something is stirring in Minga! After all, it is about nothing less than the sanctuary of Bavaria - the beer, the Oktoberfest and her beer price would not be a political issue! Sufficient fuel for a decent Zoff in the city hall offers it all!
The Oktoberfest poster is here!
At the beginning of the month, it was time again ... We were introduced to the new Oktoberfest poster. After the designs were screened out in the last month via online voting, the final winner poster is now fixed. And this is how it looks ...
Designer Duo
Two design students from Nuremberg have won. The Franks are making an adequate contribution to the festival this year. After the poster with a pink design addressed mainly female visitors last year, the winner's poster is held in soft light blue this year. That makes the Munich Baum happy.
Further information ...
All information about the new Oktoberfest poster, the two winners, and the design competition can be found in our " Poster Special"Pictures from this year's designs on the other places (ie from the second and third place) can be found on our magazine www.Oktoberfestplakat.de
Winner of the poster competition
The " Top 30 poster designs " from the online voting have been announced. Too big surprises we did not notice. Now it is up to the jury to select the final winner from this preselection. Who still wants to guess which motif wins, but now has to hurry. More about the new Wiesn poster ... Reserve
Tables
It is still months to the first tap. Nevertheless, you should already take care of the reservation of tables and seats. Since the beginning of the year, the first marquees accept your reservation requests.
However, binding acceptances and cancellations will only be available in May. Everything to reserve in the Oktoberfest tent ...
Reserve a room
For visitors from outside the search for a place to stay should top the "Todo list". Because hotels and rooms are more expensive than cheaper, the closer the autumn festival moves (this phenomenon of the free market economy is called Yielding).
Use the current early bird rates of the hotels and save money! Also, the selection of free rooms is currently really big.
Collector jugs 2016 Tip!
Those looking for Oktoberfest pitchers from the previous year should hurry up. Because currently, the Bavarian tankards are still available at reasonable prices.
If interested, look in the shop on the matching bottom (click on the image). There you can order the beer mugs 2016 online or even request tankards from previous years ...
To get directly to the appropriate subpage, please click on the respective picture. In addition to the traditional Maßkrügen stone (so-called Keferloher) are also glass jugs (Isarseidel) and various glasses available.
Because the official beer steins of the city are launched in different sizes. Available from the 1.0 liter Masskrug about 0.5 and 0.3 liters to the small Stamperl with 4cl. Including white beer glasses with poster decor.
The innkeepers, however, you only get as a 1.0-liter pitcher with Salzlasur (Masskrug). Overview of all offers ...
Wirtekrug 2016
The Wirtekrug 2016 was already sold out before the beginning of the Oktoberfest. Some jugs were to get to the hard start in the big beer tents. These were, however, sold out quickly. So the common beer mug of the Wiesnwirte is difficult and even to get to collectors prices. If you are interested in the Festkrug, you can find out about current prices and availability in the webshop via a request to the collection team.
This year is expensive!
Last year, a lot of security measures and a lot of costs for the city came to the visitors. Increased controls and a complete guarding of the terrain is now in the money. So the city is currently looking at an organizer for ways to deal with the additional costs.
What is planned? On the one hand, the classics - the stand fees for hosts, showmen and market clerks are increased. Of course, the feeders are particularly pleased about this since they already had lower sales in 2016.
Also, the beer prices the 11, - Euro mark rather tear, than we all love. Without detours directly to the wallet, it probably goes to the visitors at the " Oiden Wiesn ". Here, an increase from 3, - to 4, - Euro is planned for entry (does not sound like much, but at least 33%). Quite creative (but also a bit strange), the idea of the fixed line, in addition to a " security charge"For every reserved seat in the marquee" What the security on the Theresienwiese has to do with a place in the beer tent, is (for us) not really comprehensible, but in the end, all festival visitors alike have the disadvantage because the higher prices we will all pay!
News from the meadow hosts
A tent on the Theresienwiese, for many farmers the ultimate. And so Heuer no longer apply each year, many restaurateurs for the coveted spots. with it is the small traditional tent of the family "Wild Moser ." Because the host family herself with her chicken roast no longer advertised.
At the small Oktoberfest tents, either a new Hendl roast will celebrate its premiere or old acquaintances will return. Because after " Heimer's chicken roasting " last year had no approval, fans of the tent might be looking forward to a return.
Also back is the " Oide Wiesn ". And here, too, there is a new marquee. Thus, the " Velodrome " is replaced by a " folk music tent ".
Tracht trends
What's in this year? And what's out again? That's not just fashionistas. As with casual wear, every year there are new fashion trends and fashion trends in the traditional costume.
So we report this year about the trendy costume trends and the new Dirndltrends. In the weeks before the onset, our " Oktoberfest trends " will be online again.
So, bookmark the best page and stop by every now and again. Update - The new traditional trends are already online on our partner site. Stop by!
Windisch for Best Ager
Here is a few news that we still want to add. On the one hand, " OB Dieter Reiter " sent two invitations in January. Both US President " Barack Obama " and Federal President " Joachim Gauck " were invited to the first run (16 Sept) in the Schottenhamel.
Obama had confessed his love for Bavaria and the Oktoberfest 2016 at the " G7 " in Garmisch ( News). And Gauck and Reiter wanted to meet at a "happy event" (not only at funerals).

Jo, wos isn's? Football professional " Mats Hummels " kicks with a creamy-blonde hairdo? Yes! Because the Bayern star lost the can throw on the Oktoberfest a bet against a spec. As a betrayal, he now had to dye his hair blond.
The " Upstyle action" Was (secretly) on the rest day of the hairdressing salon instead Nevertheless, the result then shocked but many female fans Well, at some point the blond stuff is indeed grown out again Update -... Matse is again as beautiful as ever.

Hotel and room booking

Online. Hurrah, spring is here!
In keeping with the beautiful weather, the Volksfest season begins in Munich. On March 31, the Puchheimer Volksfest starts. Three weeks later, the spring meadows on the Theresienwiese are ready to go. Let's start on the Friday after Easter. The best folk festivals ...
You do not treat yourself otherwise
Who says that the people of Munich spend their " savings " on their ideas, they are wrong. The latest idea of the fixed line is a million-euro public address system. Here then once for a 3/4 million euros holes are dug and cables are laid.
Add to this every year then the rent of a speaker system (because renting is cheaper than buying). This should be a contract for the next 5 years. Altogether so over 4 million euros in the conversation. Jo Leit so spared in Minga! There is paddling and not messed up.
Men without nerves
What's new to report? Not very much. Except for the fact that the big coalition in the Munich city hall (GroKo from SPD and CSU) threatens to break. Are the quarrels about social projects or even existential problems? But no - it's about the price of a mass beer at a folk festival! In the room is that the city needs about 4 to 5 million euros, in addition, to finance the security measures at the Oktoberfest.
And the parties are currently arguing about it like the tinkers. However, one might get the impression that it is more about profiling and being right than about finding serious solutions to the problem.
How to finance?
What are the latest ideas to finance the millions deficit (see above)? Among others, the fixed stand costs of the marquees could be replaced by a percentage " turnover lease ".
At the same time, the beer prices should then be "capped" ( beer price break ), so that the hosts do not pass on their additional costs to the guests. In the "return" the landlords are allowed to accept table reservations on the last day (03.10.). Actually, the day should remain " reservation-free ". Gwiss is nothing but nothing!
In the ideas for the funding gap is also an extension of the folk festival by an additional Dienstag in conversation. An " additional day " sounds really good for fans of course. However, the idea is not new. So there was this proposal in recent years several times. Especially in the times when the Oktoberfest and the beer tents bursting at the seams, they wanted to extend. Ultimately, however, it was repeatedly found that an extension is not meant to implement. Look ma times, if this year it will be.
Neue Festhalle In
2015 we got a new Schützenzelt, in 2016 the hacker tent followed with a newly renovated marquee. And this year? Get the ox roast facelift. Although there is no official statement yet. But when it's time to work on a new Oktoberfest tent, talk about it.
And so the new building is already on everyone's lips. But there are still no pictures, it is speculated. A few key facts - the oversized grill for the steers should remain.
Likewise the manschgerl above the entrance and the number of seats in a tent and beer garden (more is not, would not be approved). Completely new is the kitchen area and the toilet facilities.
More toilets was also an important issue for the other tent new buildings. Outside we must say goodbye to the old, swinging facade. Like the newSpatenzelt, we are looking forward to the Oktoberfest setup at the very latest. Do change mia then scho, wos d 'Burschn do so ois zammabastln.
A dispute over the beer price
Ring-free! The city hall is currently around. Wiesnchef Schmid (CSU) rehearses the solo effort and OB rider (SPD) is angry. Proposed is a " beer price break ". The idea of freezing the beer prices at the Volksfest for three years.
So the festival beer is to cost until Octoberfest 2019 with all hosts uniformly 10.70 euro. And not a penny more. And here we go to the tranquil cosmopolitan city. The hosts go to the barricades, the press headlines ""and speaks of" populism" and" planned economy. "And even the guardians of the cartel office are to be called in. Something is stirring in Minga! After all, it is about nothing less than the sanctuary of Bavaria - the beer, the Oktoberfest and her beer price would not be a political issue! Sufficient fuel for a decent Zoff in the city hall offers it all!
The Oktoberfest poster is here!
At the beginning of the month, it was time again ... We were introduced to the new Oktoberfest poster. After the designs were screened out in the last month via online voting, the final winner poster is now fixed. And this is how it looks ...
Designer Duo
Two design students from Nuremberg have won. The Franks are making an adequate contribution to the festival this year. After the poster with a pink design addressed mainly female visitors last year, the winner's poster is held in soft light blue this year. That makes the Munich Baum happy.
Further information ...
All information about the new Oktoberfest poster, the two winners, and the design competition can be found in our " Poster Special"Pictures from this year's designs on the other places (ie from the second and third place) can be found on our magazine www.Oktoberfestplakat.de
Winner of the poster competition
The " Top 30 poster designs " from the online voting have been announced. Too big surprises we did not notice. Now it is up to the jury to select the final winner from this preselection. Who still wants to guess which motif wins, but now has to hurry. More about the new Wiesn poster ... Reserve
Tables
It is still months to the first tap. Nevertheless, you should already take care of the reservation of tables and seats. Since the beginning of the year, the first marquees accept your reservation requests.
However, binding acceptances and cancellations will only be available in May. Everything to reserve in the Oktoberfest tent ...
Reserve a room
For visitors from outside the search for a place to stay should top the "Todo list". Because hotels and rooms are more expensive than cheaper, the closer the autumn festival moves (this phenomenon of the free market economy is called Yielding).
Use the current early bird rates of the hotels and save money! Also, the selection of free rooms is currently really big.
Collector jugs 2016 Tip!
Those looking for Oktoberfest pitchers from the previous year should hurry up. Because currently, the Bavarian tankards are still available at reasonable prices.
If interested, look in the shop on the matching bottom (click on the image). There you can order the beer mugs 2016 online or even request tankards from previous years ...
To get directly to the appropriate subpage, please click on the respective picture. In addition to the traditional Maßkrügen stone (so-called Keferloher) are also glass jugs (Isarseidel) and various glasses available.
Because the official beer steins of the city are launched in different sizes. Available from the 1.0 liter Masskrug about 0.5 and 0.3 liters to the small Stamperl with 4cl. Including white beer glasses with poster decor.
The innkeepers, however, you only get as a 1.0-liter pitcher with Salzlasur (Masskrug). Overview of all offers ...
Wirtekrug 2016
The Wirtekrug 2016 was already sold out before the beginning of the Oktoberfest. Some jugs were to get to the hard start in the big beer tents. These were, however, sold out quickly. So the common beer mug of the Wiesnwirte is difficult and even to get to collectors prices. If you are interested in the Festkrug, you can find out about current prices and availability in the webshop via a request to the collection team.
This year is expensive!
Last year, a lot of security measures and a lot of costs for the city came to the visitors. Increased controls and a complete guarding of the terrain is now in the money. So the city is currently looking at an organizer for ways to deal with the additional costs.
What is planned? On the one hand, the classics - the stand fees for hosts, showmen and market clerks are increased. Of course, the feeders are particularly pleased about this since they already had lower sales in 2016.
Also, the beer prices the 11, - Euro mark rather tear, than we all love. Without detours directly to the wallet, it probably goes to the visitors at the " Oiden Wiesn ". Here, an increase from 3, - to 4, - Euro is planned for entry (does not sound like much, but at least 33%). Quite creative (but also a bit strange), the idea of the fixed line, in addition to a " security charge"For every reserved seat in the marquee" What the security on the Theresienwiese has to do with a place in the beer tent, is (for us) not really comprehensible, but in the end, all festival visitors alike have the disadvantage because the higher prices we will all pay!
News from the meadow hosts
A tent on the Theresienwiese, for many farmers the ultimate. And so Heuer no longer apply each year, many restaurateurs for the coveted spots. with it is the small traditional tent of the family "Wild Moser ." Because the host family herself with her chicken roast no longer advertised.
At the small Oktoberfest tents, either a new Hendl roast will celebrate its premiere or old acquaintances will return. Because after " Heimer's chicken roasting " last year had no approval, fans of the tent might be looking forward to a return.
Also back is the " Oide Wiesn ". And here, too, there is a new marquee. Thus, the " Velodrome " is replaced by a " folk music tent ".
Tracht trends
What's in this year? And what's out again? That's not just fashionistas. As with casual wear, every year there are new fashion trends and fashion trends in the traditional costume.
So we report this year about the trendy costume trends and the new Dirndltrends. In the weeks before the onset, our " Oktoberfest trends " will be online again.

Windisch for Best Ager

Obama had confessed his love for Bavaria and the Oktoberfest 2016 at the " G7 " in Garmisch ( News). And Gauck and Reiter wanted to meet at a "happy event" (not only at funerals).

Hummel's Wiesn bet
Jo, wos isn's? Football professional " Mats Hummels " kicks with a creamy-blonde hairdo? Yes! Because the Bayern star lost the can throw on the Oktoberfest a bet against a spec. As a betrayal, he now had to dye his hair blond.
