opening ceremony
The opening ceremony presided over by the mayor of Munich will be held in a temporary tent. At noon 12, accompanied by the salute and music of 12, the mayor will knock the brass tap into a large beer barrel with a mallet, then unscrew the tap, release the beer and put it into a special large beer cup. When the mayor drank the first glass of beer, the famous October Festival officially began!
Admission ceremony
Munich beer manufacturer's gorgeous carriages, beautifully decorated floats, beautiful young waitresses, beer tent bands ... Nearly 1000 people walked to the venue with music, which was the first "appetizer" dedicated to tourists at Oktoberfest. The whole entrance ceremony will last about 45 minutes, which is the prelude to the official opening of Oktoberfest in Munich.
Traditional costume parade
The parade of traditional costumes is more powerful than the entrance ceremony, especially the diversity of traditional costumes and the parade of "riflemen" are more impressive. At that time, various traditional costume teams, "armies" wearing historical costumes, carriages of major breweries, traditional floats in Munich and performance teams will parade in the streets.
Open-air concert
On the one hand, beer and food are drunk, and on the other hand, there is a sea of all kinds of music. On the second Sunday after the opening of Oktoberfest, the major bands of Oktoberfest will gather here to present an open-air concert for tourists, and 400 musicians will perform on stage.
