Raise Your Stein in Style: Private Jet to Oktoberfest 2025
It’s nearly that time again – when lederhosen become high fashion, beer flows like rivers, and Munich transforms into the most joyful place on earth. Yes, Oktoberfest 2025 is brewing – and if you’re planning to do it properly (read: with maximum fun and minimum faff), then arriving by private jet to Munich is the only way to go.
When and Where?
Oktoberfest 2025 takes place from Saturday 20 September to Sunday 5 October on the Theresienwiese, a huge open space right in the heart of Munich. It’s the world’s largest beer festival, attracting over 6 million visitors each year – but you can dodge the queues and chaos with the luxury and ease of a private jet to Oktoberfest.
Fly into Munich International Airport (MUC), or for those wanting to get even closer to the action, Oberpfaffenhofen Executive Airport is a sleek and quiet alternative just 20 minutes from the city.
What to Expect
Expect giant beer tents filled with music, dancing, laughter, and plenty of Prost!
There are 14 large tents and 20+ smaller ones, each with its own atmosphere. From the traditional to the totally bonkers, there’s something for everyone:
- Schottenhamel: Where it all begins! This is where the Mayor taps the first keg.
- Käfer Wiesn-Schänke: A celeb magnet with a more refined vibe (and Champagne, if you must).
- Hacker-Festzelt: A beautifully painted tent known as “Heaven of the Bavarians” – wildly popular with locals.
Book tables well in advance – or better yet, have your concierge or PA do it before you even touch down in Bavaria.
Best Beers & Bavarian Bites
Every tent only serves beers brewed within Munich’s city limits – so it’s all proper Bavarian and all utterly delicious. Look out for:
- Augustiner Bräu: Munich’s oldest brewery and a crowd favourite.
- Hofbräu: Slightly stronger and always lively.
- Spaten: Classic, smooth, and the first keg tapped.
Pair it with roast chicken (Hendl), giant pretzels, suckling pig, schnitzel, and for the brave: Obatzda, a strong Bavarian cheese spread that pairs dangerously well with beer.
Dress Like a Local
Yes, you can show up in jeans. But if you really want to blend in (and get the best selfies), go traditional:
- Ladies: Dirndls. Fitted, flattering, and fabulously fun. Just remember: tie your bow on the left if you’re single, right if you’re taken.
- Gents: Lederhosen. Go authentic, go embroidered, and please – wear long socks.
Munich locals love it when visitors get involved, and dressing the part earns you serious beer tent brownie points.
Where to Be Seen
- Hotel Bayerischer Hof: Glamorous, historic, and oozing old-world elegance. A celebrity magnet during the festival.
- Mandarin Oriental Munich: Chic rooftop bar, amazing city views, and private dining if you’re avoiding the crowds.
- Theresienwiese VIP Lounges: Yes, they exist – ask your jet concierge to pull strings. Think gourmet menus, private balconies, and a much nicer loo.
Entertainment Beyond the Beer
Yes, there’s more than beer. Think:
- Traditional brass bands belting out everything from Bavarian folk to 80s pop.
- Carnival rides, from Ferris wheels to haunted houses.
- Parades, with horses, floats, and lederhosen-clad musicians marching through the streets.
- Oide Wiesn: A charming area dedicated to Oktoberfest as it once was, with vintage rides, folk dancing, and a more relaxed pace.
Flying Private to Oktoberfest
Flying commercial during Oktoberfest? Brave. If you’d rather avoid the queues, transfers, and turbulence (social or otherwise), a private jet to Munich offers:
- Flexible schedules – arrive when it suits you, leave when your head clears.
- Onboard Oktoberfest – stock your flight with Bavarian beers and snacks if you fancy a taster at 30,000 feet.
- Luxury transfers – from plane to tent, with zero hassle.
Whether you’re planning a corporate incentive trip, a last-minute getaway, or a bucket-list weekend with friends, arriving by private jet to Oktoberfest is the ultimate power move.
In Short…
If you’re going to do Oktoberfest 2025, do it properly. Skip the crowds, sip the good stuff, and enjoy every moment without compromise. And when the beer’s that fresh and the brass bands are playing your song, you’ll be glad you started your journey in the clouds.
Private jet to Munich? Jawohl.
Oktoberfest? Wunderbar.
