The Wiesn-Einzug der Festwirte und Brauereien parade
Since 1887 the traditional Wiesn-Einzug der Festwirte und Brauereien parade has been the prelude to the Oktoberfest. It is the festival inauguration which culminates with the iconic ritual of the opening of the first barrel by the Mayor of Munich at the “Schottenhamel” tent, the legendary “O’zapft is!”

At 10.45 the families of the hosts start from Josephspitalstraße their route toward
the Theresienwiese on decorated carriages drawn by horses and oxen carrying the beer
kegs of the traditional Munich breweries, accompanied by the waitresses and followed
by famous bands. Leading the parade is the “Münchner Kindl” the
symbolic doll of the city of Munich. Arriving at the Schottenhammel takes about an
hour, having passed through Sonnenstraße, Schwanthaler Straße, Bavariaring and
Wirtsbudenstraße.
There are more than 1,000 staff that make the Wiesn-Einzug der Festwirte und
Brauerein Parade an event followed all over the world, broadcast live
on TV and via the Internet and includes the appearance of different celebrities, the
Press, as well as the thousands of spectators on the streets of Munich.
