Munich's Oktoberfest Celebration
The Oide Wiesn, a historical part of the Oktoberfest, was founded in 2010 to provide a nostalgic impression of the traditional Oktoberfest. Located at the Theresienwiese venue in Munich, Germany, this unique event has been a permanent feature of the festival since 2011.
The Oide Wiesn offers an alternative to the huge razzmatazz of the neighbouring Oktoberfest, catering to families and older people. Visitors can enjoy retro-style rides like the Krinoline carousel and the Hexenschaukel (Witches' Swing), or go for a topsy-turvy spin in the Velodrome for a laugh with joke cycling (Juxradln).
The atmosphere at the Oide Wiesn is steeped in Bavarian customs, Munich's hospitality, and traditional folk music. Whip-cracking (Goasslschnalzer) and the Bavarian shoe-slapping dance (Schuhplattler) are common sights, adding to the authentic Oktoberfest experience.
While the Oide Wiesn focuses on preserving tradition, the menu in the cosy 'Herzkasperl' festival tent is not old-fashioned. Prices are current and up-to-date, ensuring a comfortable experience for all visitors.
The Oktoberfest beer is served in the classic grey stoneware tankard (Keferloher) at the Oide Wiesn, maintaining the traditional feel of the event. For those seeking information about the Oide Wiesn, the official Oktoberfest website (www.oktoberfest.de) and our website (www.ourwebsite.com) are great resources.
Whether you're looking for a family-friendly atmosphere, a taste of Bavarian culture, or a chance to step back in time, the Oide Wiesn is the perfect destination during Munich's Oktoberfest.
