What Is It?

 

Ein Prosit!

Which means drink you little legends. This festival is unashamedly about drinking beer, and we think that's absolutely wonderful! Oktoberfest has long traditions steeped in....beer, has long been the global benchmark in....beer and, well, beer, beer, beer.

But it's not just beer, unless you really want it to be. Our Oktoberfest is all about traditional dress (that make babes look even more babe-ish) and the finest of meaty treats, and dancing to Oompah bands and the giant sideshow with roller coasters and just being a part of the world's largest fair.

Beer just makes it oh so sweeter.

What's Stoketoberfest?

We have the biggest party outside of the beer halls everyday of the festival. With Stoke Travel you know you are always coming home to friendly faces (by the hundreds), plenty of beer, great music and delicious BBQs. We are also experts at the festival, and have been known to be the loosest, craziest, partiest people in the beer halls.

We call Stoke Travel's trips the unforgettable trips that you probably won't remember. This is because for an extra 10€ a day we serve you all the beer (or sangria) that you want. We call them 'welcome drinks'.

And when you're staying with hundreds of people, from all around the world, who, like you, are there to party, then you're bound to make plenty of new friends. Some of them special friends, special friends who might like to explore the inside of your mouth with their tongues. And if that sounds gross rest assured - it's anything but.

How To Get Here?

 

Pilots are the only sober people here (we hope).

All budget and major airlines fly to Munich from all over Europe and the world. Check out skyscanner or Kayak for details.

It's very easy to get to the campsite from the airport. You take a train from the airport to the central station (called the Hauptbahnhof)

 

 

Of course it's efficient.

All trains entering Munich come in to the city's centrally-located main station (Hauptbahnhof), which is shared by the city's rail and bus systems, providing connections to all destinations within the city and around the region. High-speed InterCity Express (ICE) trains from Hamburg, Frankfurt and Augsburg provide rapid service to Munich. The City Nightline (CNL) features comfortable sleeping quarters on its overnight services. The Deutsche Bahn has more than 25,000 miles of track, connecting all points in Germany, with international service as well. To view their timetable, you can visit the website.  If your travel originates in the UK, British Rail has four daily scheduled trains to Munich, with journey duration of around 9 hours and including a ferry connection. From Zurich, there is daily service on the train called the Bavaria.

 

Once you're at the Hauptbahnhof,  jump on the underground (S2) in the direction of Peterhausen. Jump off at Untermenzing. Right outside the station take the bus for 3 stops to Campingplatz Obermenzing. Just ask the driver or have a look on the bus route map.  Easy peasy!

 

 

Buses are the bestest.

You can travel by bus to Munich from London, Paris and many other European cities. The largest bus operator from the UK to the continent is Eurolines, operating out of London's centrally located Victoria Coach Station. In Paris, Eurolines is located on rue Malmaison, a 35-minute Metro ride from the centre. In Munich, bus services usually terminate at the Zentraler Busbahnhof, which you will find on the north side of the Hauptbahnhof.

The most WICKED, literally, way to get to Oktoberfest is in a Wicked Campervan. We have reserved spots for Wicked vans within the campsite. Check out www.wickedcampers.co.uk.

 

Please note that if you are coming by car, there is very limited parking at the campsite, so you will need to park down the road and either walk or catch a short bus back to the camp. You can drop your things off at the camp first.

What is the breakfast like? 

Breakfast is usually the good ol' Aussie toad-in-a-hole .... translation: egg cooked in a hole in a piece of toast. Yum! Sometimes we mix it up and have another sort of eggy mix, but whatever it is, it will be warm and will go down well with a Bloody Mary.

buses to the camp site? 

Yes, you absolutely do. You can fly into Barcelona in time for the weekend trips. They happen on three weekends, departing on Thursday evenings. The dates for these are: 20-24th Sept and 4-8 Oct.

Yes, the twin tents are two-man tents. We have two-man and three-man tents, so if you are a group of 3, you can all tent together. Just let us know your preferences when you book. We also have an option to have a private tent for a small additional fee - just in case you don't want to share.... or if you want leave space for the hottie you're going to meet at our campsite..... just saying... 

 

And what amenities are offered at the camp site?

The campsite is awesome! It is big and green and foresty with a cafe/restaurant, a little shop, hot showers, laundry area, vending machines, wifi and it's easily accessible via public transport.

The campsite itself has small lock boxes which you can rent from reception. We have a giant container which gets locked every night and we can put small valuables in there.

We serve unlimited alcohol at our camps. You, my friend, will be the wild animal.
