This is the Oktoberfest's prime VIP hangout. Since it's open longer than the other tents, the crowd heads there after the other tents close. So get there early!
The Oktoberfest branch of the Hofbräuhaus. Pretty rowdy crowd. Avoid if you want to drink your Maß Beer in peace.
The roasting of an entire ox started as an Oktoberfest sensation in 1881. Over a hundred are roasted each year. Each one's name is displayed.
At the "Crossbow Shooters Tent" over 300 staff members ensure your well-being. Prost!
A beer tent loved by locals as well as non-locals ("zuagroasten" = Germans residing here from out of town) alike. All are welcome and all love the cheer "Löööwenbräu!"
The "Heaven of the Bavarians" (Himmel der Bayern) tent seats 6950 thirsty guests inside as well as 2350 in its beer garden. The interior was painted by Oscar winner Rolf Zehetbauer ("Cabaret").
This is the only tent where beer is still served from stags ("Hirschen"), 200 liter wooden barrels. Order a Maß and taste the difference!
Today's tent, complete with wind protectors, was inaugurated in 2004. Historical versions featured open air shooting galleries as well as parking right at the tent.
A wine tent at the world's largest beer fair? Indeed, wine has been served at the Wiesn since the first Oktoberfest in 1810!
