How to make reservations for a table at Oktoberfest in an English site

Do you have a group of 8 to 10 people?

No 4 people

Generally, you can only reserve full tables of 8-10 people and include a food and drink minimum per person. You might find reservations for 4 people by going through aa tour group.

If you go during the day on a week day, you should not need reservations.

We went to Oktoberfest in September 2023 and I made reservations in 3 tents for 4 people - one during the day and 2 at night.

Our day reservation was here: Fischer-Vroni tent - it was fantastic and so much fun. This is a bigger tent. We stayed after the reservation and made friends with other people. I had to take myself back to the AirBNB and passed out. Oops, lol.

The next night we had reservations here: Heimer Enten-und Hühnerbraterei which is a small tent.

Our third and last night at Oktoberfest, we had a reservation at Hühner-und Entenbraterei Poschner, which I would call a medium sized tent. It was absolutely fantastic and a great way to end our experience. It may have been my favorite actually.

Most tents don't do reservations for 4 people, but I found ones that did which was nice. I am too much of a planner, lol. Definitely check out the Oktoberfest website and look at each tent website. I did a lot of research.

Are reservations necessary?

Thanks Sam and Melissa for the helpful information.
