My favorite thing about The Tent? It captures the true spirit of Oktoberfest's camping origins before it became the polished festival we know today. Sleeping on mattresses in a communal tent might sound rough, but the friendships you'll make here are legendary - plus at these prices, you can afford extra Maß without guilt. Fair warning: bring earplugs, because the international snoring symphony starts around midnight!
