Is Munich’s Springfest (Frühlingsfest) still a hidden gem on your travel list?
Or have you heard it described as Oktoberfest’s more relaxed, more local-loving cousin?
It’s the perfect festival for travelers who want the authentic Bavarian beer tent experience without the intensity of Oktoberfest.
Our multi-day Springfest tours are built for guests who want to enjoy Munich’s spring celebration the right way: handpicked 4★ and 5★ hotels within walking distance, guaranteed beer tent reservations, and private guides who take care of every detail from arrival to farewell.
Prices start from $1,450 per person, based on double occupancy in a 4-star hotel. Final pricing depends on the chosen hotel category (4★ or 5★), group size, and your selected travel dates—the larger your private group, the lower the price per person, as costs are shared across the group.
Weekends and opening days are generally more popular, while mid-week stays often offer excellent value with a calmer, more local festival vibe.
Single, triple, and family-suite accommodations are available on request. Want to stay longer or add Bavaria day trips? We’re happy to customize your Springfest package based on availability.
In 2026, Springfest returns to Munich in late April through early May, bringing around two weeks of Bavarian beer, traditional food, fairground rides, and live music to the Theresienwiese—all with a lighter crowd and an easygoing spring atmosphere.
In 2027, Springfest returns to Munich in late April through early May, bringing around two weeks of Bavarian beer, traditional food, fairground rides, and live music to the Theresienwiese—all with lighter crowds and an easygoing spring atmosphere.
