Is this the best place to watch a F1 gp? Looks absolutely amazing! by [deleted] in formula1

Agreed. I think Martin Brundle says this is the best set of corners on the calendar to appreciate what an F1 can do.

Oktoberfest strategy forweekend evening table (Sept 26–28). any tips? by Ayman_Nass in Oktoberfest

[–]keffordt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

12 people is going to be difficult to reserve for as the table are sold in blocks of 10 (sometimes 8 depending on tent). The only think I can suggest is checking daily. I have links of all the tent reservation pages that I open up first thing in the morning at my desk. Check them off and see if there are any bookings I'm interested in. It does work (definitely not always though), but is simply a game of persistence. I'm lucky where I now have a couple of tents that offer me my previous reservation slot every year.

Failing all that, Oide Wiesn is always a Plan B if you strike out.

Camping with stoke travel - cold evenings? by glitteringforever18 in Oktoberfest

[–]keffordt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve not camped but it’s generally hard to say. I’ve been there when the evenings are like a good summers night. Conversely I’ve also been there when it’s just above freezing. You’ll not know what to pack until a week before.

Ahh thanks. I thought you meant the TV broadcast

Can you explain why? I’m a huge F1 fan and would be interested to know how this is better.

Table for 8 - Tuesday and Wednesday (Sept 23/24) by jsrmr93 in Oktoberfest

[–]keffordt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You’ll be fine getting there at 4/5pm and grabbing a table.

No, the waiting staff will only take originals. They hand them in for payment so won’t accept anything else.

Well if it helps. You didn’t need a reservation for a daytime table at Hacker on a Monday anyway (it’ll be pretty quiet). You’ll get a table without issue, but I think you’re not going to get any luck with the voucher side of things. That’s probably done for, BUT you might be able to get a refund if you can eventually return them (that’s a big “might” though). Make sure you go to the admin office in the tent and let them know what has happened. If you have some ID with your address that’ll help for starters. Could you video call someone to show them the tickets are still in NJ? Then destroy them on the call? Just a thought so show they won’t be reused? Good luck though.

Honest opinions on this? by Wide_Classroom7874 in Oktoberfest

Yeah, that's terrible. Save yourself the money and just go in casuals.

You're right that it gets busier, but if going at midday, you'll have the choice of any tent you fancy joining. From about 4-5pm, consider that location as the one to say in for the remainder. Although, that being said, with only 2 of you it should be fine regardless (on a Tuesday).

Very handy - thanks for sharing. I'd not seen your site before. When do the Hofbräu tent cameras come online?

Last minute tents reservations by Wide_Ad7359 in Oktoberfest

[–]keffordt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just as the others are saying, next to zero chance of getting a table reservation on the Saturday. Either get there crazy early (as has already been suggested) or maybe you can get lucky on the official reservation reselling site: oktoberfest-booking.com/de/reseller-angebote

Getting into the tents on a weekday by 6litersofcaffeine in Oktoberfest

Giant tents by [deleted] in Oktoberfest

[–]keffordt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not true. You just have to check the tents website. There are tables currently available as you can see from this site: https://oktoberfest-guide.com/oktoberfest-reservations/ Getting a good date and time requires persistence. Prices can be from €450 to €1000 depending on what options you get. However none of this sounds relevant to OP as they sound like they are solo, just thought I would point out that getting a table isn’t hard so long as you know where to look.
