Without a certain skill in getting new, positively-occupied terms for Oktoberfest, job is not to be done. And n you have to emphasize that you do not want to talk about exaggerated “superlativeism” word!

But second mayor and Wiesn-boss Josef Schmid (CSU) can now be excellent. His preliminary final report before press was overwritten with words: “A griabige wiesn”, which suggests that this year was not raging in every respect of bear. Even if middle and last weekends as well as on this Monday and Tuesday almost old conditions with crowded tents reigned. Schmid summed it up toger with words: “A wiesn to enjoy, a wiesn to stroll, a wonderful wiesn.”

But it was also longest imaginable wiesn–because only, if day of German Unity, 3rd of October, falls on a Tuesday, n it is full 18 days long and not only usual 16. For first time also an wiesn took place during such a long Oktoberfest , and for second time it was necessary to do a wiesn with extremely stringent safety precautions.

In this respect, compared to previous year, when re was no an wiesn due to Central Agricultural Festival and festival had 17 days ( 3rd October had been a Monday), a certain increase can be observed. In past year, city had counted around 5.6 million visitors, mainly responsible for bad wear at beginning and increased fear of terrorist attacks. The fear has apparently declined, presumed also Josef Schmid, and he also directed “a message to Munich: come out again!”

The security concept is evident, he sees it, and he also stresses: “The security Service has worked very well, and it has also proved its worth to build on past year and to re-establish same forces.” Anor interpretation would also be astonishing, and finally Schmid’s work and economics unit negotiated corresponding contract.

With 6.2 million visitors, a certain normality returns to festival site on Theresienwiese. And on Oiden WIESN, number of visitors also does not grow into sky, with currently 480 000 it is well ten percent less than last time two years ago. This is due to fact that on normal WIESN it is also a little quiet and you do not have to save yourself so often on an wiesn. By way, slight decline in visitors has hardly hurt, and with new folk singer Tent She has even experienced a real enrichment: re is hardly any overlap with or tents from audience as well as from program.

So police account WIESN

There was little criticism of access controls this year, in fact you are now in a high security area on WIESN. Thus, Red Cross makes glass bottle ban responsible for fact that it had to treat significantly less cuts injuries this year. And police press officer Marcus da Gloria Martins won a slight increase in crime by 4.6 percent to 1161 cases positive: Because police had intensified video surveillance with 37 cameras in such a way that re was hardly a blind spot for m Were much more sexual offences (67 instead of 34 last year) and violations of Narcotics Act (297 instead of 241) were recorded early. Gloria Martins: “For this great crowd, this is a very peaceful feast.”

The digitalization of WIESN is even more capable of expansion. Very well accepted is official Oktoberfest app with friend and Zeltfüllstandsanzeiger; According to Schmid, it was downloaded more than 80 000 times. The new payment app lags somewhat behind, 16 000 mobile payment transactions are not much at 6.2 million visitors. Fischer-Vroni-innkeeper Hans Stadt Müller is quite satisfied with his first online reservation. With her, one can book a table in tent day before, this possibility was well used, says City Miller, but she must have a little more talk around.
