Dreaming of experiencing the world’s most famous beer festival without the stress of searching for a seat?
Good news! We still have a limited number of Oktoberfest lunch table reservations available for selected dates during the 2026 Oktoberfest in Munich.
If you’ve ever tried to book a table at Oktoberfest, you’ll know just how quickly they sell out. These remaining reservations are the perfect opportunity to enjoy the authentic atmosphere inside one of the festival’s traditional beer tents while leaving all the planning to us.
General Information
All available reservations include:
- Time: Lunch reservations between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM
- Guaranteed reserved seating
- Ideal for families, couples, and groups
- One reservation per table
- Limited availability – first come, first served
Every reservation includes either:

What to Know Before You Go
Arrive Early
Although your table is reserved, arriving a little before your reservation begins allows you to soak up the atmosphere and avoid unnecessary stress.
Traditional Clothing
Dirndl and Lederhosen are optional but highly recommended—they’re all part of the Oktoberfest experience.
Bring Cash
While many vendors now accept cards, cash is still useful throughout the festival.
Drink Responsibly
Remember that Oktoberfest beer is stronger than standard beer. Enjoy it slowly, stay hydrated, and don’t forget to try the delicious Bavarian food.
