The Oktoberfest disappears
After 16 days of festivities, the Oktoberfest will now be dismantled according to a fixed schedule until November.
Beer tents must be completely dismantled by 22 November
There are deadlines for the individual sectors as to when they must have left the Theresienwiese. For example, the brewery festival halls and other large catering establishments at the Oktoberfest must vacate the site by 22 November. Brewery festival halls and other large Oktoberfest catering establishments located in the area of the Tollwood Winter Festival must be dismantled by 31 October. This also applies to the businesses on the Oidn Wiesn.
Coffee tents, chicken fryers, sausage and snack halls as well as high rides have to leave the Wiesn by 18 October, the other businesses belonging to the festival by 11 October. Mast sites must be vacated by 8 October. Caravans, lorries, machinery and other vehicles must also vacate the festival grounds by these dates.
Installations in the terrain, such as foundations and basins, must be removed and all excavations and holes cleared. Waste disposal during the dismantling of the festival is subject to the Commercial and Construction Site Waste Disposal Regulations of the City of Munich.
