LA boy here. I was there in 1970 w a girlfriend. Lovely German couple we sat near took us home and had us stay w them at their beautiful house in Starnberg on the lake.
When I went to Oktoberfest, I was in the US Army in Germany. Our unit went down there on a bus tour. I got split up from my group, and ended up in the Augustinerbrau tent. The beer there was the nectar of the gods. I'm pretty fluent in German, and I ended up with a group of happy Tiroleans from Austria. It was great fun. Why do people think that Austrians are unfriendly? They're the best!
If you have a small group you don't need reservations for any of the tents. Just give one of the bier fraus 20 euros and she will find you a place at a table.
That might be true on change over times or during the week, like Monday or Tuesday. I have plenty of time had it happen where they won’t let you into the tent at all unless you have a reservation.
Doesnt matter what tent, after a couple of liters of bier one will have a great time. That is if you remember. I know i only remeber my 2 liters.. but had a great time and met great people. PROST!
I really enjoyed your video. The funny thing is that your #1 tent is my least favorite. The Hofbräu (pronounced HOF-broy, btw) is probably the least local and is by far the youngest crowd. Crabby middle-aged guys like myself feel much more comfortable at the Augustiner Festhalle, your #10. The Käfer Wiesn Schänke is really cool and all the timbers inside remind me of our old dairy barn here in Wisconsin. How come you pointed out the Bavaria monument but neglected to warn of the perils of the adjoining Kotzhügel?? :-)
Appreciate the feedback! I'd say "Hoof-bry" is a bit more how it is pronounced in Bavaria, I mention that in my online Oktoberfest tents guide but used the international version in the video. Looking back at the video and can definitely see Augustiner being ranked much higher next year. I love the beer there the most and it's in my personal top 5 tents but in had to weigh a lot of factors outside of personal preference in the current ranking. With Puke Hill, I'll be adding it and a warning to not become a beer corpse on my 2020 tent video for sure. I had also fogot to mention in the video that the Tradition Tent closes every 4 years so I have a few small gaps to improve on for sure
@@Bigboytravel I've been to Oktoberfest 3 times and have wanted to check out Oide Wiesn the last couple of times but it seems like I never quite make it. Once you find a good spot it's hard to give it up, especially if Augustinerbräu is being served. I've also never strolled down the east promenade with all the rides and attractions. So much Wiesn, so little time! We plan to go back in 2020 or 2021.
The Oide Wiesn will be taking a year off in 2020 for the Agricultural Fair that happens every 4 year, but will be back in 2021. Definitely take time for the ride/games area next time.
Lol, I have also often heard people call it "the pig pen" because of the standing room only area (on the occupants) getting so sloppy. I still love visiting Hofbrau but will have have changes for in my rankings leading up to the festival in 2021. I'm still being optimistic that it won't require two years before Oktoberfest can safely come back again
16:45 "Kaiserschmarrn" is a sweet dish! Austrian emperor (Kaiser) Franz Joseph was not "silly", he like the dessert and made it famous in high society.
What days were these filmed on? I am debating whether to go on a Saturday / Sunday or a Sunday / Monday. I am young and want to party so am worried it wouldn’t be as crazy fun on weekdays. Thanks
All of the clips in this video were filmed on weekdays (monday-weds). We have gone may times on weekends and can say it is best to avoid them. 100% avoid Saturday as it'll be a pain to get into even one tent. On the weekdays, you can tent hop in the morning to experience more, and then by the mid afternoon, it will be jam-packed and wild. The more party style music starts after dinner and there is also a Wiesn after party with djs, which just opened for pre sale tickets as it sells out.
how do you only have 1600 subs? your content is amazing. I don't even drink, and I loved this video! Going to be in Munich in May. Where you suggest we go for an octoberfest experience but off season?
Thank you for the kind words and I'm glad you liked the video! If you are going in May you can get mini-Oktoberfest with the Spring Festival that takes place on the same grounds. I will have a guide and video on it over the next few months
As a local Augsutiner being ranked 10th is not understandable to me defently one of best tents in my opinion. Käfer is really good too but its not a tent its more of a hut more Restaurant like they should have one of the top spots. Augustiner/Hofbräu for tent and if u want a lillte more privacy and more Restaurant like feel Käfer is the one.
I totally hear you and agree on Augustiner as we love their beer and the tent is in the top 3 that I take friends to when I visit Oktoberfest. Not really sure what happened that I let Augustuner slip so much in this video but it will be much higher in the next version. Looking back I think it was both due to a lack of footage that I had on hand at the time from inside the tent and some selfishness that I wanted to keep it a bit of a hidden gem and didn't properly share it.
@@Bigboytravel no worries everyone has his one opinion bro Hofbräu is a good tent i just prefer Augstiner personally. I whould probally Rank it 1.Hofbräu 2.Augistiner 3.Käfer since Hofbräu is more internatinol. I like both i just whouldnt have ranked Augustiner that low .It was a great Video still and i hope u get more Subscribers! Count me as one xd and looking forward to see u on the Oktoberfest this year haha
Sweet, first time at Oktoberfest? Where else are you going? I am working on a few more videos for Munich and region at the moment so thank you for the encouraging words
@austin, depending on where you are at planning wise note that the Saint Rupert's Festival is in Salzburg on the 26th-29th which is like a mini-Oktoberfest as has fireworks over the castle/old town Salzburg on the Sunday night
@@Bigboytravel That would be awesome but I'm arriving in Munich the morning of the 29th, so no Saint Rupert's Festival for me this time around. Maybe next time! Thanks for the suggestion
Definitely the best beer at Oktoberfest and in Munich! Even outside of The Wiesn, we love going to the Ausgustiner beer garden on the North side of the train station.
Your lucky if you get 2 beers at Oktoberfest. However, 2 beers at Oktoberfest is equal to a 6 pack and at 6 percent alcohol which is pretty high for beer. So its more like 8 beers. But its about much more than beer. Its apparently a life changing experience w ppl all over the world. I hear the feeling is beautiful and something unexplainable.
Good to point out that the beers are larger and stronger than people are usually used to. Important to pace, but 2 beers would still be on the lower side if you are there all day
Not sure what you mean, Hofbrau has the highest % of tourists of any of the tents. As far as english being spoken, most people in all of the tents speak english since most Germans/Bavarians are bilingual (or at least close to competent), but basic German is still important since you're in Germany. With the music, yep you are correct but after 6pm around 40-50% of the songs in all of the tents are in english and the rest in German plus some in Spanish and Italian. Kaffer's Tavern is only about 30% songs in english or so. We have an online guide covering what to expect music wise along with the 30 most important songs to know about
Lol! If I was being less subjective and only ranked on personal taste Augustiner would definitely be in the top 5 like it is for locals, the beer there is such a above the rest
Going to that tent again on Weds for lunch. It's on my check list each time to get beer and ox meat sandwich at their tent. I'll be making a new series of tent videos/rankings before 2025 wiesn
Each one of the tents has an outdoor area which are excellent but empty when the weather is bad. It doesn't affect the inside area though which is whereost of the seating it, even at Kafers
Hello again! So I'm traveling with a group of three to Oktoberfest this year, but we haven't made any reservations for any of the tents. Will it be much harder for us to get into the larger tents, even though we plan on getting there on a Thursday, during the week?
Thanks for watching, you can check our our online guide about reservations, but in general you can easily hop between tents on a Thursday (weekday) from 10am until 2ish (sometimes 3pm) without any wait to get in and find unreserved spots. By that mid afternoon time though the unreserved seats and tents in general will start to fill up. www.bigboytravel.com/europe/germany/munich/oktoberfest/how-to-get-table-reservations/
There is absolutely no reason to reserve unless you are in a large group. The side stalls are reserved specially for corporations and reservations may expire at 17:00 when groups leave/disperse and the evening hoard arrive.
@@Bigboytravel the problem is once you’re in, your in. That would wreck me because I’m a inpatient person and gambling if I can get another beer again is just not a risk I’m willing to take! 🍻
If you go on weekdays you can easily tent hope between 3 tents from 10am-2pm before settling into one. Later in the afternoon or a on weekend though you're totally right and it isn't worth the risk leaving a tent unless you are done drinking
It is "Flashdance,What A Feeling" from Flashdance. It is very common in the tents and is also played in the Hofbrau section of this video with a group singing along with it
Anyone able to tell me what the song is at 8:54? Just as they start talking about Käfer's Tavern there are girls singing a song and I would love to know what it is.
I am American and never been to Oktoberfest, but is it possible to build more Beer Tents and possibly expand the grounds of Oktoberfest? How large of an area is Oktoberfest in Munich? How many acres?
it is roughly 100 acres so it is pretty huge, but won't be expanded as the city is developed on all side. The attendance here is more than the 3 largest US state fairs combined, but if you plan ahead and visit on a weekday then it is easy to manage the crowds. As far as more tents, I don't see that happening as the layout lends itself to 15 large tents and 22 small tents already with 120,000 seats. The tents are rebuilt each year starting in June. Half of the grounds are dedicated to games/rides which is an important part of the experience plus every 4 years the Southern end is turned into a large agricultural fair (next one in 2020).
If you book now the prices should be normal and we really like both the Motel One and the private rooms at thr Euro Youth Hostel plus the Hotel Cocoon is usually a good vaule. Expect to pay $200-250 a night at those for a private room during Oktoberfest if you book now but the price will double and sell out before the end of Spring If you have more than than two people then we love the Meridian which is pricey but has large rooms with two proper beds. Expect a nicer place to be $400-500 a night if you book now or $1,200 a night if you wait.
I hear going to the bathroom at Oktoberfest is usually extremely difficult as lines can be up to an hour just to piss. What to you expect w 6 million people.
The longest I've ever had to wait was 20 minutes, but that was mid afternoon on a Saturday. We always recommend going on the weekdays as it doesn't event get full until mid to late afternoon and the bathrooms don't tend to get unreasonable
They sell sniffable snuff all over at Oktoberfest and it is very common to see people around your sniffing/snorting it. It is also white and powdery compared to the black version in American German restaurants so it throws people off a bit the first time they see it. Is basically smokeless tobacco it colored or tobacco free herb version if white I believe but both have a strong mint or menthol flavor
yes the bench situation at some of the tent as the evening goes on can definately be a challenge. They are back to back and very cramped, but some of them have large standing room areas and others like the Wine Tavern have a lot more comfortable seating
By itself the p in Pschorr isnt pronounced but as a combo word with Hacker it usually is. We go there often and even if you listen to their own videos on their Facebook page they pronounce the p when the full name is hyphenated
Yep lol. I'm in Munich often and some locals really do say the hofbrau tent is for "stupid tourists" but locals still love the tent and "stupid" isnt a the same insult there as in the US or UK. The sediment mainly comes from the minimal amount of foreign visitors to Hofbrau that wear halloween costume versions of Bavarian clothes instead of the real deal and drink too much until they become beer corpes. All of the tents are a majority locals as 70% of Oktoberfest goers are Bavarian and each tent has a unique vibe
Música típica alemã? 🎤 Oh, My God the house is crowded. Oktoberfest CPD must be gigantic, save the analysts, programmers, DBA. a speed to upload data to the cloud ☁️ Minha Nossa Senhora fast baby, 5g via Uai-fi?

What questions do you have?

@@Bigboytravel how much will it cost to go into a beer court
@@Bigboytravel thanks for the heads up
I hear going to the bathroom at Oktoberfest is usually extremely difficult as lines can be up to an hour just to piss. What to you expect w 6 million people.
The longest I've ever had to wait was 20 minutes, but that was mid afternoon on a Saturday. We always recommend going on the weekdays as it doesn't event get full until mid to late afternoon and the bathrooms don't tend to get unreasonable
Saturday night a 20 minute wait if that, the line moves very quickly. Was there last night at the Hofbräu tent.
What if you don’t drink beer?
All of the tents serve soft drinks and water plus most now have some wine. A few even have mixed drinks.
Wow!
Did anyone happen to spot the guy on the left of the screen at 12:45, sniffing at his hand..... Bit strange that movement!!
They sell sniffable snuff all over at Oktoberfest and it is very common to see people around your sniffing/snorting it. It is also white and powdery compared to the black version in American German restaurants so it throws people off a bit the first time they see it.

no way you get me into the Hacker-Pschorr Tent, again. Rudest Staff ever.
Sorry to hear that was your experience at their tent at Oktoberfest
no Carling no strongbow
Lol, no definitely no UK beer. Only locally produced beverages at Oktoberfest
The back-to-back seating at the tent tables just doesn't look good to me. Everything else looks wundebar.
yes the bench situation at some of the tent as the evening goes on can definately be a challenge. They are back to back and very cramped, but some of them have large standing room areas and others like the Wine Tavern have a lot more comfortable seating
Poor oxen😢😢😢😢😢😢. I wish they weren't eaten. Is there a vegetarian Oktoberfest?
There are many vegetarian things to eat like strudel and pretzels, however, meat is a big part of the culture in Bavaria

Wooooo 📡 is a mix of populations from several European Union countries and must have Brazilians. I've already eaten pork knuckle at home ja, ja
If I flew all the way to Germany just to hear a band play horrible cover songs like Sweet Child of Mine, I would be SO disappointed!
I've seen Gun-n-Roses live recently and they sound way worse than this cover these days
Everything sounds pretty much the same after you had about three or four of those steins…. Seriously get over yourself.
See You in Octoberfest 2021! Stay safe everyone, keep wearing your face
masks, wash your hands frequently and stay apart to stop the spread of
Covid-19. Take care!
Crowded , noisy , stinky , crappy music and the beer sucks and oh, i live in germany ,which i LOVE, but
October Mess, you can keep.
