Oktoberfest build up 2007

I noticed that there are a lot of things going on at the Theresienwiese, but shouldn't they start building up for the Oktoberfest by now...??

You're a little early, but not much. Keydeck took a load of photos last year approx. 51 weeks ago!

Damn, Sparty, but you're anxious.

Since the Wies'n has gone off without a hitch for quite a long time, I suspect that everything is under control.

Last year I was there a 10 on the first day and all the tables were gone.
What time this year I wonder will I have to go

Last weekend was the Rewe family fest I believe, as soon as its cleared away its gonna be building time!

Maybe the Oktoberfest logo should go up already? Or does it only go up with O'zapft is!

My daughter was born at the end of July, 2005, just a block from Theresienwiese. Her dad sneaked her out of the clinic for a walk on the Wies'n grounds when she was 2 days old, and reported back that construction was coming along nicely. So I know they will have started by the end of July.

Here's a gratuitous photo of mini-Cinz enjoying herself AT Oktoberfest that year:

If you go on the first day, you should go between 7am and 8am if you want a table indoors, depending on the tent you want to get into. You'll have to wait a couple hours, too, before the tents open. I've done it that way the last couple of years, and plan on being there on the first day again this year.

Yes I am... When they start building it, it gets me in the mood for Oktoberfest already

Hold your horses! They only took down the Tollwood stuff yesterday...it will come!

Err??? Summer Tollwood doesnt happen on the oktoberfest site.

It was the rewe family day

"... If you build it, he will come..."

You got that right!

Oh, and he'll be there, as well, probably with a similar look on his face.

Stone Cold Steve Austin is coming??
