The tents
Every year at the Oktoberfest, 14 large and numerous small festival tents offer delicious beer as well as all kinds of other food and drink - and of course lots of fun. Best of all: after a successful evening in one of the tents, you can fall into a well-deserved sleep in one of our cozy Munich hotel rooms.

The Oktoberfest offers its guests many rides for young and old. From carousels to ghost trains and slides, everything is on offer. Our Hotel Oktoberfest can only recommend all the rides.
The history of the Oktoberfest
How did the Wiesn actually come about? Our Hotel Oktoberfest explains: We owe the Oktoberfest to a bourgeois non-commissioned officer. He wanted to celebrate the wedding of Ludwig of Bavaria and Princess Therese with a big horse race, which took place on October 17, 1810.
It was so spectacular that this festival should be continued every year.
A private event developed into a festival for the masses. More and more merry-go-rounds and games stalls were added every year and the horse race quickly became a thing of the past.
As it has always been held on the Theresienwiese, the Oktoberfest is also known as the Wiesn.
The Oktoberfest has developed from a Bavarian tradition into Munich's biggest tourist attraction, where beer consumption and fun are the top priorities.
Don't forget: from our Hotel Oktoberfest you can be at the Wiesn in just 5 minutes on foot. Thanks to our proximity to the main train station, you can also easily reach and visit other attractions in Munich and the surrounding area.

Do I need an admission ticket?
No. Admission to the festival grounds and the beer tents is free. However, we recommend reserving seats in the tents. The crowds are particularly large in the evenings. In the event of overcrowding, the tent operators reserve the right not to admit anyone.
Are there admission controls?
Security personnel are positioned at all entrances. In some cases, visitors will be searched, e.g. if they are carrying excessively large bags.
