Oktoberfest meetup - first Sunday

I've got a few friends coming in for the fest on the first Sunday and thought I'd organise a bit of a meetup, if anyone else is keen. We've done this now for the last 3 years and it's always a good day out. 2005 we were in the Armbrustschutzenzelt, 2006 in the Hacker, last year in the Winzerer Fähndl so this year I'm suggesting we hit the Schottenhammel, which is definitely one of the best at the Wiesn.

Gotta get there early cause this is a popular tent. We met last year at 8am and that was fine. If you show up later you might not get in. If anyone has some tips as to where is free from reservations, post them here. I suspect however that most of the tables in the middle are not reserved.

Ok, so details once again.

Tent: Schottenhammel
Date: Sunday 21st September (first Sunday)
Time: 8am at the tent, or 7:50 directly outside Theresienwiese U-Bahn

Let me know if you're keen, should be a good one.

You're in luck! As you are going on a Sunday, none of the central tables are allowed to be reserved. (Boxes and galleries are still reserved).

From what time do they start serving beer?

I don't even remeber going to those tents the past 3 years!

Is it those guff Ausssie mates that drink like girls? Anyways, I'm in, I might let the wife go too.

Yes, it's those Aussie mates that drink like girls - Australian girls, that is - so harder than you do..

In my experience, they start serving beer as soon as they open the doors at around 9am.

Aussie girls! The wife will not be in attendance!

I have visitors too that weekend, might come along (4 all together) thanks for organizing

Sweet, is this an open invite??? If so, I'm in, and I might just invite a few friends along and tell them we have a confirmed plan. Whose contact info do we need?

I'll be there.

I love to meet up with you too.
I'll be there at 8am, look out the big English guy shouting 'Anyone from Toytown' and looking lost!

Sounds like an excellent idea. Katrina and I will be along with a +1.

Sounds like a good plan,I'll be there!

It's an open invite - the more the merrier..

Like I said, meet at the U-Bahn at 7:50am or at the tent at 8am. If anyone wants my mobile number, just PM me and I'll give it to you so you can call me on the day if you don't find us.

I should be there - assuming that the night at the Charlatans is not too mad

I'll almost certainly be there +2 or 3
