I was just in Munich for Oktoberfest last Wednesday and Thursday. It was one of the most fun events I’ve ever been to. Here are a few pieces of advice from one first timer to another:
1. You can buy your lederhosen when you get there. There are plenty of pop up shops and it will run you about 100 euro (you can save money if you bring your own checkered shirt)
2. Tip your server. They will make sure you have a good time if you take care of them
3. Keep an eye out for servers because they will serve you even if you don’t have a table. If you tip them they will help find you a place to sit in their section (this worked midweek, may not work on the weekend)
4. Learn the German lyrics to “Ein Prosit”. You will hear this cheers song all day long
