Oktoberfest 2010 Details

Please see below the details for this year's Oktoberfest weekend, 24th - 26th September. A 2-page summary including maps and suggested train times can be downloaded here.

What your registration fee includes:

  • Friday night: Dinner in a fine Bavarian restaurant complete with beer (we buy some kegs - once those are gone it's a cash bar)
  • Saturday afternoon: Tasty lunch after the run
  • Saturday night: Admission to the tent includes 2 LITRES of Munich's finest beer and one meal voucher, good for 1/2 a roasted chicken or equivalent priced food
  • Sunday afternoon: Another tasty lunch
  • Special MH3 Oktoberfest Haberdashery and goody bag
  • Beer, beer, and yet more beer at all three circles!

 

The Basics

 

If arriving or leaving via the airport on Friday and/or Sunday, you should buy yourself a day pass (Tageskarte): either a single or a partner ticket if you?re not travelling alone, for the entire network (Gesamtnetz). The day ticket for one person costs ?10.40. A partner day ticket (Partner-Tageskarte Gesamtnetz), good for up to 5 people, costs ?18.80. This will allow you to travel to and from the airport and anywhere within Munich that day.

 

If you're arriving or leaving via the Hauptbahnhof on Friday and/or Sunday, you should buy a day pass for only the Innenraum (inner district). A single costs ?5.20, a partner ticket ?9.40.

 

On Saturday, we'll all be buying day passes to get out to the r*n. To get to Tutzing and back you will need a day ticket for the entire public transport network (MVV Tageskarte Gesamtnetz ? prices mentioned above). Make friends and travel cheaper using the partner day ticket! You can either take the S-Bahn S6, direction Tutzing, or a regional train.

 

The simplest way to work out your times and routes is to use the MVV?s journey planner:

Please note that drinking alcohol on Munich?s U-Bahns, trams and buses is banned, but it?s still allowed on the S-Bahns.
