Oktoberfest 2009

Oktoberfest 2009!!!

25th-27th September

What is it? An exciting, action-packed weekend of hashing, beer, oblivion, regret, beer, Germans, beer, music, food and possibly some beer. If you've ever been, you know what happens. If you don't, here's what goes down in broad strokes:

Friday: Register, r*n through the city, circle, then have dinner at a Bavarian-ish restaurant. We buy some kegs, & once they’re gone it’s a cash bar. (Note: Bavaria is a strange country located very close to Germany. They eat sausages and stuff.)

Saturday: Head out to the countryside for a lovely r*n through the, um, countryside, then lunch and a circle. After this, we stumble back to Munich for the Oktoberfest - the biggest, craziest piss-up on the planet! Beer, oom-pah music, guys in leather pants, girls in pretty dresses, competitive Italians: big fun.  Tent admission includes 2 LITERS of Munich's finest golden Oktoberfest beer, and a voucher for your dinner.

Sunday: Hangover r*n, lunch, circle. Optional (and own expense) return to the Wiesn.


We're working tirelessly to sort out all of the details (precise locations, hares, etc.), but in the meantime, for an idea of WHAT YOU’LL GET FOR YOUR REGISTRATION, you can look at last year’s programme. We’ll update the Details page once more information is available for 2009.

Accommodation: Note that the price for the weekend does not include accommodation (it couldn't possibly). If you’re planning to come, then you should BOOK YOUR ACCOMMODATION NOW! For ideas on places to stay, check out this page: Oktoberfest crash space
