MUNICH, GERMANY

PINTS AND PALS AT MUNICH'S OKTOBERFEST

The land of hearty, carb-heavy cuisine, frothy beer steins, and lederhosen, Munich is Bavaria’s most festive metropolis. Known for feeling like a village with all the amenities of a big city, Munich is a prime destination to get a taste of hearty German culture at Oktoberfest: the country’s world-renowned festival. 

Known for its intoxicatingly fun atmosphere and vibrant display of German music, beer, food, and fashion, Oktoberfest boasts vibrant beer halls full of boisterous revelers and tons of carnival rides. A massive bucket list item for all travelers, there’s no way you can visit Europe in the Fall without experiencing the infectious excitement of the world’s biggest beer fest.

Get dressed up in your adorable traditional dress or striking lederhosen and head to the festival grounds with crowds of lively locals to claim a table for your friends at your favorite beer hall. Sing along to the oompah bands, eat salty soft pretzels, and cheers a stein of golden Bavarian ale to your successful Oktoberfest experience.

The Real German Beer Fest

These are the times of our lives – let’s make them matter

Friday

welcome to the beer halls!

Oktoberfest is a rite of passage for everyone studying abroad in Europe, and we’ve taken care of everything so you can kick back and enjoy Bavarian culture at its prime. Throw on your lederhosen and dirndls, we’ve got a massive welcome party waiting for you at our favorite beer hall. You’ll be tossing back beer, singing songs, and dancing on tables through the night!

Saturday

prost!

On Saturday you’ll have a chance to refuel with a much-needed breakfast and hydrate before we hit the halls again. We’ve reserved a prime table for you and your fellow Okiefest partiers so you can relax and soak in the atmosphere. You’ll spend the day raising steins, tasting all sorts of hearty German food, and taking a spin on rides at the carnival before partying as long as you can hold out.

Sunday

one last hoorah!

Most travelers will be heading home on Sunday. If that’s your plan, refuel with delicious breakfast before you go. If you’re sticking around with us, check out the sights you missed while you were enjoying Oktoberfest, like St. Peter’s Church or the view from the town hall clock tower. We’ll also be covering bike rentals if you want to see the city at a faster pace. Ready to hit the coffeeshops in Amsterdam?

The Abroad Connection makes the most of your semester by visiting the cities and destinations you’ve been dreaming about.
