Oktoberfest Helpful Hints
Useless info to the seasoned pisshead !
- The cost of a stein of Beer is about € 9.20 (£ 8.00) - 1 litre. Don't steal steins; buy them in the souvenir shop, or you could be staying overnight with Fritz in the cellar
- Pork knuckles (schweinshaxen) and Roast Chickens (hendl) are a big part of the Oktoberfest. About £10 per serve. Girls could share with a friend.
- Tips are good if you want to get served again. Round up to at least to the higher Euro, we do € 10 steins.
- Girls need approx £ 60 per day for food, beer and a ride or two.
- Guys need £80 minimum for a good day at the Beerfest.
- We have a central meeting spot for your entire group at 8pm, as you are bound to lose someone in the group.
- All Bedding supplied. No sleeping bags or towels are needed at the Chalet. Laundry is also available.
- A weather check is best made a few days before you leave. Be aware weather has ranged from 35 degrees to sleet and snow in the past years
- Wear the right clothes (check biking notes). Oktoberfest tents are hot and sweaty. You will not be allowed to take your shirt off
- Get yourself a dirndl or lederhosen, see Shevy or Bianca for this one !
- Good footwear is best to avoid broken glass and big boots standing on your toes, three pluggers are prone to blowouts !
- Bags or backpacks are good for stashing cameras and jumpers. Be aware that people steal these.
- Fights will result in you being kicked out or arrested.
- Cash and minimal items is best as be prepared to loose what you take.
- Look after your wallets, keys and phones if you take them!!!
- NO SMOKING in tents since 2010
