I have been going to the Oktober Fest for 18 years now, and I am looking forward to my next visit! I always have a good time and have learned by experience which groups(and tents) to gravitate to for the most fun. The people are friendly(OK, liters of beer help) but in general people are nice. I can also sing along to 'Country Roads' *smile* Not sure about the comments of locals staying home? Maybe with bad weather? I was there on opening day 2 years ago and I met group after group(7 women, all in Heidi dresses, and sweet&cute as could be! Thanks to them inviting me agian I was able to get into a dry tent last year) all from München and surrounding areas. I have also over the years met people from all over the World! I could write pages on this theme....So, YES I enjoy the Oktober Fest!

Munich is a big city with: restaurant, nightlife and accommodation results, with hotelbye , you'll have a look. Munich could be the capital city of Bavaria and the third-most populous town in Germany. For ages the seat of the Dukes, Electors, and Leaders of Bavaria, the Munich Residenz is without a doubt certainly one of Europe's most spectacular palaces. Presented about seven big courts, the great resident complicated comprises three main areas: the Königsbau, fronting into Max-Joseph-Platz; the Alte Residenz, facing Residenzstrasse; and the Festsaalbau (Banqueting Hall) overlooking the Hofgarten. The first section of this huge complicated to be created was the impressive Antiquarium, built-in 1579 and today the main exceptional Residenz Museum. Munich is a town with plenty of record, make sure you investigate it whole.

I come from Munich, and we went there every year. Its great,but now with all the people you seldom see a true Bavarian they stay all at home now. It is lots of people from different country's ,its not so nice anymore. But for a Newcomer its great, except I know it different too. But enjoy it

Yes, I was at the Oktoberfest a few years ago. The people were great...nobody let me buy a beer all night... The women were beautiful in their traditional costumes and the Oom Pa Pa band rocked!

I have been there. If you like drinking beer, singing songs, and eating sausages with garlic then I recommend it. There was a lot of people there, but I was in a group of blokes who were intent on drinking so much that they ended up being sick in a brothel toilet. It was an eye opener I can tell you!

Yes, but remember this: although it's called the Oktoberfest, it takes place in September, so don't miss it. Despite all the above comments, the firework displays are superb.
