Munich's Oktoberfest this year was visited by about 7.4 million people — more than ever in the festival's history. The previous record was 7.2 million guests and was set in 2023, reports Bild.

The 191st Oktoberfest, which ends today, lasted 16 days. An particularly large number of people came on weekdays: in the first week, attendance from Monday to Thursday grew by 18.5%, and in the second — by 28.9% compared to last year.

Beer consumption also increased: visitors drank about 6.7 million liters of beer — 2.7% more than in 2025. Food sales increased by approximately 2–3%.

447 thousand people visited the separate "historic Oktoberfest" (Oide Wiesn) compared to 360 thousand a year earlier.
