Hello Robb,
and all Oktoberfest visitors.
We are german ClubTPR Members and we live next to Oktoberfest.
We show you some construction pics of the Oktoberfest 6 days before opening.
This year is a special Okotberfest, we celebrate the 200th one
and the Oktobersfest is bigger as normal.
There is an extra area with nostalgic things
and it is the last year of the Olympia Coaster.
The beer price for one Maß (1 Liter) with a little tip is 9,00 Euro.
With this metro lines you arrive the Oktoberfest.
U4/U5 Station Theresienwiese
U3/U6 Station Goetheplatz (2 minutes to walk)

On both Tuesdays is the family afternoon with special cheap prices for the rides and food,
but not for beer. This is between 12am to 6pm.
More info:
Don’t rent a car, there are no parking places in the near.
This year the smoking law in Germany has changed
and now it is forbidden to smoke in the tents of Okotoberfest
and the underground metro stations and all Restaurants/Bars.
Generally is smoking forbidden for persons under 18 years.
But all persons over 16 years can drink unlimited amount of beer.
Change a lot of money before you enter the Oktoberfest,
because normaly only cash is accepted and on the ATM are long lines.
It is better to leave the Creditcard in the hotel,
so you don’t lose it or somebody steal it.
Only two metro stations away form Oktoberfest is the Station Marienplatz.
Here is the original Hofbraeuhaus next to the Hard Rock Café and the real fine dining at Schuhbeck.
If you go from Munich to Europapark by car or train, you can make a stop at Stuttgart.
There is the second biggest fair in Germany and there are other coasters.
This is called the Stuttgarter Wasen and it starts one week after the Oktoberfest starts.
