so i went to oktobefest back in 2002, and had to stay in Augsburg (last minute plan, rented a car and went). i'd much rather stay in munich this time, but already it seems hotels are expensive and hostels booked.
anyone have advice on how to do it? is there a campground and how does that work?
thanks! and also, anyone planning to be there in 2006? im also planning to go to the beer festival in stuttgart that takes place right after oktoberfest! (all during my year long world voyage)

I pitched a tent at 'Camping Thalkirchen' It is your average no frills camp ground. It has a good atmosphere (everyone is there for Oktoberfest and ready to party).
It is a bit far from the city - you have to catch a bus and then walk for a little bit.
If you don't want to catch the public transport there is a private coach that does direct trips to the Oktoberfest grounds, but you will pay more for this service.
Hi everyone, I had the same problem planning this year's trip to Europe. We came up with a good solution though: We'll fly into Amsterdam (Netherlands) and stay there for a few days. Then we'll go down to the Oktoebrfest with the Oktoberfestbus (.com). Hope this helps! Cheers, Dave
We are going form Amsterdam!
