Tent #8: Käfer's Wies'n-Schänke


"No longer a secret: celebrities from all over the world, and especially those from Munich flood into Käfers Wies'n-Schänke," according to Oktoberfest.de. "That's no wonder since proprietor Michael Kaefer has created an extremely comfortable and cozy retreat in his comparatively small tent at the Wiesn."

FAST FACTS

Tent #9: Weinzelt


"The Wine Tent offers a selection of more than 15 different wines, in addition to different types of Sekt (sparkling wine) and champagne," according to Oktoberfest.de. "The proprietors of the wine tent are the Kufflers. They have been a part of Munich's gastronomy scene for a long time, and know very well what Wiesn visitors will appreciate."

FAST FACTS
  • Capacity: 1,900
  • Brewery: extensive wine-, Sekt- and champagne selection (i.e. from the Nymphenburger Sekt cellars), Paulaner Weißbier
  • Website: www.kuffler-gastronomie.de

Tent #10: Löwenbräu


From the official Oktoberfest website: "Don't be scared when the king lets out an authentic sounding roar every couple of minutes. A further feature: It is no surprise that this beer tent is the meeting point for fans of the TSV 1860 Munich soccer team as they are also called Lions."

FAST FACTS

Tent #11: Bräurosl


"Entertainment is of great importance in this tent: a tent-own yodeler, who answers to the name "Bräurosl" during the Wiesn (in honor of Rosi Pschorr), ensures a good atmosphere and traditional Bavarian songs. But that's not all! Because when "Bräurosl" goes on break, the Luwig Thoma-Musicians take up the beat and pump up the heat."

FAST FACTS

Tent #12: Augustiner-Festhalle


"The proprietor of the Augustiner-Brewery, Manfred Vollmer has built up something very special during the course of the past sixteen years: this tent is considered to be the friendliest of all at Oktoberfest. The waiters/waitresses (almost) never forget to smile, regardless how busy or hectic it gets."

FAST FACTS
  • Capacity: 8,500
  • Brewery: Augustiner Bräu Wagner KG

Tent #13: Ochsenbraterei


"When visitors look at the entrance of the Ochsenbraterei, where an over-dimensional ox is slowly turning on a huge spit, it is easy to understand what this tent stands for. "

FAST FACTS

Tent #14: Fischer Vroni


"You can enjoy an authentic grilled "fish on a stick" in one of the most comfortable tents at the Oktoberfest. Even the fish preparation is an experience: the fish are skewered on a stick, and grilled in a 15-meter long row. Regardless whether walleyed pike, white fish, or salmon trout.... Your fish wishes will not go unanswered."
