A raucous celebration of Bavarian culture, Munich's Oktoberfest is one of the world's oldest, biggest, and longest parties. Dating back to 1810, the event these days kicks off when the mayor taps the first keg at noon on the third Saturday of September. Some 6 million revelers spend the ensuing 16 days clinking and drinking 1-liter beer steins, eating sausages and doughy pretzels, and swooshing through the air aboard carnival rides. Technically a folk festival rather than a beer festival, Oktoberfest features plenty of merrymakers in traditional lederhosen and dirndl dresses belting out old Bavarian songs in giant tents and beer gardens. Regardless of attire, though, anyone is welcome to link arms and join the fun.

This is something everyone must do at least once! Wear a drindl or leiderhosen. We bought some on amazon but you can get them in munich for about the same price. If you can, during the week. We went on a Friday and Saturday. We got seats right away on Friday around 11. On Saturday, we were in line to get in before it opened and we barely got a seat so you must go early. Both days, we got kicked out at 5 for people who had reservations. There are a lot of rides and food outside the tents as well. If you ride the ferris wheel, it will give you a nice view of the festival. One of my major tips is to download the official oktoberfest app. It will show you the best times to go, give you helpful tips, and also show you in real time how full each beer tent is. It saved us some major time and hassle when we tried to find a tent to sit in. Later in the days if the beer tents are too full, they close them and won't let you in without a reservation. It helped to see how full each tent was so we didn't waste our time. Oktoberfest was easy to get to. Get off at the central train station then it's about a 15 minute walk. Just follow the signs and the crowds.

Our German friends showed us a different side of the Christmas Market, this delicious Salmon Sandwich cooked on the cedar slabs you see in the background & Sour Cherry Liqueur in Gluhwein, evening Christmas musical performances in front of the Town Hall. Wonderful Atmosphere! There are 4-5 different locations for the Munich Christmas Markets, each with a different theme.
