Thanks for the recommendations so far everyone. Never been to Munich or Germany in general. We get into Munich Monday afternoon and probably plan on leaving Thursday evening for either Amsterdam or Prague now. We plan on flying to Amsterdam if we do. We fly out of Paris the following Monday so we will likely return to Paris on the Sunday before. We are on this trip to party hard and meet/party with the local womenz. One of my buddies is running the Berlin marathon and a few of us are meeting in Munich after that. We have the Oktoberfest tent tickets too which I heard if you don’t its like tailgating outside of the stadium while the big game is going on.

I'm not positive this is an option, but you may look into a night train. Catch the train at like 10am and wake up at 7am pulling into Amsterdam. Something like that. You go city center to city center, so very little time is wasted.

They kick you out of the tents and stop selling booze at 10, german time sharp. Often earlier then 10. If you want to see the city also, honestly its best to just go home. But otherwise you'll want to plan somewhere else preferably close to where you are staying. They have big after parties because it closes early, but again your next day would be wrecked.

Benches. They rip you down and kick you out if you stand on the table top.




UnluckyTiger, when you say tent tickets, do you mean table reservations in a designated tent?

Also of note, each tent is designed different, serves a different brewery’s beer, and has its own vibe. Don’t be afraid to leave and try a new one (2pm-5 tend to be dead)

Also, before 5/6pm, the music in almost all the tents are old school German Oompah. After that it’s the big wild cover bands.
