[2025 Munich Attraction] Travel Guide for Theresienwiese (Updated May)

#oktoberfest Oktoberfest, the world's largest Volksfest, featuring a beer festival and a travelling carnival, and is held annually in Munich, Bavaria, from mid-/late-September to the first Sunday in October, with more than six million international and national visitors attending the event. The Bavarian beer festival is now celebrated around the globe but the best and funniest is still at its original home Munich. This year is the 189th festival year and the event is held from September 21, 2024 to October 6, 2024. Everyone is wearing traditional Bavarian clothes in green hats. The beer is served in a “mass”, which is one litre of beer each glass! The beer is specially brewed with 6% of alcohol. But more options and alcohol-free beer are also available. If you plan to visit Germany, I highly suggest that you go during Oktoberfest time! Reservations are required. #germany #munich

#cherryblossom25 When spring sweeps through Munich, the city quietly transforms—cherry blossoms lining the streets, parks blushing in pink, and locals basking in soft sunlight under fluttering petals. Though Munich might be more famous for Oktoberfest, springtime here feels like a peaceful hanami moment in the heart of Europe. Best Cherry Blossom Spots in Munich: 🌸 Olympiapark Walk or cycle under long stretches of sakura trees near the lake and hill. The petals shimmer against the backdrop of the Olympic Tower—perfect for golden hour photos. 🌸 Theresienwiese (near Bavariapark) Yes, the same grounds as Oktoberfest! In spring, certain areas around here burst into bloom, offering a rare contrast between tradition and tranquility. 🌸 Westpark One of Munich’s most beloved green spaces, with a Japanese garden and cherry trees scattered throughout. A peaceful, postcard-perfect hanami spot. 🌸 Schwabing & Universität areas Keep an eye out for residential streets lined with cherry blossoms—especially around Nordendstraße and Ainmillerstraße.

Every autumn, this area transforms into a bustling festival ground, drawing millions of visitors from around the globe. Even outside of Oktoberfest, Theresienwiese is worth a visit for its historical significance and as a location for various events throughout the year.

I went to the Munich Oktoberfest, the world's largest beer festival There are more than 10 breweries, but I went to Schottenhamel-Festhalle! Since there are so many people anyway, rather than choosing a brewery, you can just go to an empty spot🤣 ✨For reference, this year's dates are 9/21~10/6 #JulyTravelSupportEvent #MunichTravel #Oktoberfest

This is Munich! This is where the German Oktoberfest is held. Every year from September to October, the world-famous beer festival is held. There were so many people! There are rides and they sell a lot of chicken and other snacks! A glass of beer is 1 liter and there are non-alcoholic ones too! The serving ladies looked really great.. They were carrying and serving those heavy beers. #MayTravelSupportEvent

#2024wish I have heard about Oktoberfest many times but never had the chance to attend it even though I did come to Germany. I am thrilled to have the chance to attend Oktoberfest when I was in Munich Germany. The whole spectacle was much bigger and livelier than I thought. It's a pity that we didn't get to sit inside the tent. In 2024, I hope to come Munich again with my wife to attend Oktoberfest.
