People who tried this

β€œby the time we got out to the Weisen, around 4pm, it was pretty packed. I was actually mostly amused at the people who were... a bit beyond drunk - not even guys getting rowdy [...] but guys looking sort of zombie like. (At one point, a guy walked straight into me. And once that happened, he didn't even move/blink/whatever, just stood there stopped until I moved aside at which point, he just shuffled forward. I'm not kidding that some of these guys looked like zombies.)”

β€œI thought going in it was going to be overhyped (we mostly went to Germany for hiking and local fests around Bavaria before going) but honestly it was really a blast. BRING CASH and ask people if you can sit at their table if it’s a small group.”

β€œMy friends and I were super excited to go to Oktoberfest, especially having been to previous events in Berlin + Munich and having a blast. We went on Friday night (27th) to the HB tent and had a great time. However, Saturday (28th) was easily the worst experience I’ve ever had at a public event.”
