Friday Sept. 17

Welcome to Germany! On arrival at Munich Airport, you can utilize public transportation or hire a private car to get you to your hotel. Settle in and relax, or start exploring the wonders of this incredible city. This evening, meet your fellow travelers in a traditional beer garden, one of the largest of its kind in the world where the liquid gold still flows from wooden kegs.

Watch the Grand Entry Parade of Oktoberfest Proprietors and Landlords as they make their way to the Theresienwiese. You’ll have to line up early if you want a seat in Schottenhamel, where the Mayor will tap the ceremonial first keg at noon, signifying the official beginning of Oktoberfest! You have unlimited access to Oktoberfest during your stay. 
 

For a look into true Bavarian culture and tradition, one should not miss this morning’s Costume and Riflemen’s Parade. If you lead an alternative lifestyle, you’ll want to check out Gay Sunday in the Bräurosl tent. Don’t forget that Oktoberfest is not only about beer, it is a people’s fair complete with amazing carnival rides and attractions, surrounded by a city rich with history.
