Although the event itself was moved to begin in September to work better with the harvest, the name has remained the same. Whether you\u2019re preparing for your own harvest or simply on vacation, be sure to head to Munich to celebrate all things German! Planning a trip to one of the largest festivals in the world can be daunting, so we\u2019ve compiled the best hacks to make your trip smoother than a glass of Augustiner.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_text --><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_0\">\n<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/photo-26_original-14-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-59592\"><\/span>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_1\">\n<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/photo-5_original-18-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-59593\"><\/span><a style=\"line-height:1.7em\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flytographer.com\/vacation-photographers\/your-vacation-photographer-in-munich-meet-gloria\/\">Photo: Gloria in Munich for Flytographer<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_column -->\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_row --><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_1\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column_1  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_1  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\">\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Which tent is best?<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">With 14 main tents and 20 smaller tents spread across the festival, we wouldn\u2019t recommend just choosing one at random. Each tent has its own vibe, from family-friendly tents to \u201cdancing on tables and chanting the tune of Sweet Caroline\u201d tents. <a href=\"https:\/\/festhalle-schottenhamel.de\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Schottenhamel<\/a> is the oldest, and it\u2019s where Oktoberfest is opened every year when the mayor of Munich taps the first barrel of beer. It\u2019s also known as the place to party for younger groups, while a more laid-back vibe can be found at Augustiner. This is the most traditional tent where beer is still served out of wooden kegs, and keep an eye out for kid\u2019s day where kids can eat and drink at a discount. The most famous tent is the lively Hofbra\u00e4u, and you\u2019ll see all of the waiters are dressed in traditional clothing. Whichever tent you end up at, if you get a spot\u2026 keep it! Squeeze in next to strangers who will quickly become friends. We recommend sending in reservations for a table as early as possible to guarantee a spot, but a portion of tables in each tent are also reserved for walk-ins.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_text --><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_2\">\n<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/170614suzanne0005-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-59577\"><\/span>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_3\">\n<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/170614suzanne0018-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-59580\"><\/span>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_column -->\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_row --><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_2\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column_2  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_4\">\n<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/170614suzanne0055-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-59578\"><\/span><a style=\"line-height:1.7em\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flytographer.com\/vacation-photographers\/your-vacation-photographer-in-munich-meet-gloria\/\">Photo: Gloria in Munich for Flytographer<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_column --><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_1_2 et_pb_column_3  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_5\">\n<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/170614suzanne0014-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-59579\"><\/span><a style=\"line-height:1.7em\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flytographer.com\/vacation-photographers\/your-vacation-photographer-in-munich-meet-gloria\/\">Photo: Monica in Munich for Flytographer<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_column -->\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_row --><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_3\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column_4  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_2  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\">\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Food and drink<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The main draw for most attendees is, of course, the beer! You\u2019ll find the finest beers from famous Munich breweries like Augustiner, <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Paulaner&nbsp;<\/span>and Spaten, and many beers are brewed especially for this event. While you may be excited to try everything, don\u2019t forget to pace yourself. The one-liter beer steins, called a ma\u00df (pronounced \u201cmass\u201d), are at minimum \u20ac10 each, so drinks can add up quickly. We recommend bringing at least \u20ac50 per person per day, and remember that cash is king at this event. Don\u2019t forget to eat throughout the day, and our tip is to head outside to the food stalls for more affordable fare. Our favourites are w\u00fcrstl (sausages) with plenty of mustard, brezen (pretzels) for the perfect accompaniment to beer, and sauerkraut that goes with pretty much everything!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_text --><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_6\">\n<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/photo-26_original-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-59585\"><\/span><a style=\"line-height:1.7em\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flytographer.com\/vacation-photographers\/your-vacation-photographer-in-munich-meet-gloria\/\">Photo: Gloria in Munich for Flytographer<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_7\">\n<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/photo-30_original-1.jpeg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-59586\"><\/span>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_image et_pb_image_8\">\n<span class=\"et_pb_image_wrap \"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/flyphotoprod.wpenginepowered.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/photo-19_original-27-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" height=\"auto\" width=\"auto\" class=\"wp-image-59590\"><\/span><a style=\"line-height:1.7em\" href=\"https:\/\/www.flytographer.com\/vacation-photographers\/your-vacation-photographer-in-munich-meet-gloria\/\">Photo: Gloria in Munich for Flytographer<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_column -->\n<\/div>\n<p> <!-- .et_pb_row --><\/p>\n<div class=\"et_pb_row et_pb_row_4\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_column et_pb_column_4_4 et_pb_column_5  et_pb_css_mix_blend_mode_passthrough et-last-child\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_module et_pb_text et_pb_text_3  et_pb_text_align_left et_pb_bg_layout_light\">\n<div class=\"et_pb_text_inner\">\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>General tips<\/b><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The less you bring to the festival each day, the better \u2013 cash, your address, and your phone are the essentials. You\u2019ll be much more at ease if you\u2019re not constantly checking for your bag under the bench, and you\u2019re free to dance and sing through the day worry free! For an authentic experience, why not dress in traditional tracht? For guys, it\u2019s a pair of lederhosen leather shorts with braces and a flap cap, and for girls, a dress with a tight bodice and high-waisted skirt called a dirndl. A full custom outfit can get pricey, so either buy your clothes ahead of time or purchase from second hand stores for a more affordable option. Finally, be sure to learn the words to \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=6Xe7mRV0S-0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s2\">Ein Prosit<\/span><\/a>\u201d before you go.
