Oktoberfest beer prices
The official beer prices differ depending on the tent and change every year. In 2022, the beer prices range from €12.60 and €13.80 for a Maß (1 liter). Don't forget to tip the waiter/waitress, you'll get your beers much faster!
How to get there?
The central bus station is only 10 minutes walking distance from the Oktoberfest grounds. You just have to follow the bridge south (Hackerbrücke) and go straight. Or you can just follow the crowd, since everyone goes the same direction.
If walking is not for you, why don't you take the public transport? You can get the underground and hop off at Theresienwiese or at Poccistrasse.
