Beer Info FAQ

Smoking is prohibited inside the Oktoberfest, but there are dedicated smoking areas available.

During Oktoberfest, the city gets packed, and there are drunk people everywhere, all the time. The drunken debauchery often leads to fights, aggressive behavior, and bierleichen — so-called "beer corpses," which is what locals call the many passed out drunks lying on the hill behind the tents.
