Oktoberfest 2022 Construction

The beer tents are rising! After a 2 year hiatus, construction for the Oktoberfest 2022 beer tents began on May 16th, about 2 months earlier than usual.

Each year the beer tents are built from scratch, a process that takes around 75 days.

Over a 10-week period the Wiesn, as the festival grounds are known, will transform into Munich’s biggest construction site.  Excavators, forklifts, trucks and hundreds of workers will ensure the stalls, rides, a post office, and most importantly the beer tents will rise just in time for opening day on September 17th.

Fascinating statistics for Oktoberfest 2022 construction

  • the materials for each tent are brought in by around 800 truck loads
  • up to 35,000 sqm of floor are laid per tent
  • 13.5 kilometres of cable will be laid
  • 270 metres of gas pipes will be laid
  • 370 metres of water pipes will be laid

All this so over 6 million visitors can raise beers and enjoy the world’s greatest event. Prost!
