The alcohol is flowing and crowds of people are dancing on the beer benches: there will be celebrations again at the Wiesn 2022!

The risk of falling is high, so you should know the following rules.

Too shaky, not enough space: a beer bench is not the best place to present your dancing skills.

At the Oktoberfest there are other factors that increase the risk of falling.

For example, too many people who love to dance on the bench and too much alcohol in their blood.

That's why there are countless crashes during the Wiesn - not only with regard to the alcohol level.

Rows of drunks fall off the benches, which can sometimes result in serious injuries.

So that you can get through the Oktoberfest season without injuries, we have put together a few tips that will surely leave you standing on the beer bench.

When the mood rises in the marquee, many climb onto the beer bench.

But if you dance here, you should know a few rules.

Don't fall off the beer bench - this is how it works

  • The right footwear

    : Please do not wear high heels when you climb onto the beer bench.

    The stand is too unsafe, which increases the risk of falls.

    If you don't want to do without high heels at all costs, you should have a pair of flat replacement shoes in your bag for the beer bench action.

  • Never stand on the outermost edge of the beer bench

    : Even if the beer bench is full of people sitting and standing on it: never stand on the outermost edge of the beer bench.

    If the other dancers jump off or if those who remain seated stand up at the same time, a fall from the beer bench is inevitable.

  • Keep away from

    people who are completely drunk: You can usually spot drunk Oktoberfest visitors quite quickly.

    Unsteady gait, glassy eyes, uncontrolled movements: Anyone who has such a table partner should flee as quickly as possible.

    Because if such an intoxicated guest stands on a bench, accidents are inevitable.

    In the worst case, the drunk falls on you and drags you onto the marquee floor.

  • Finding a secure footing:

    If you have a table against the wall or in a box, you can often lean against the wall or hold on to a pillar.

    This gives security and a better grip.

    However, what is not allowed: put one foot on the table to keep your balance better.

    Dancing on the table is also a no-go at the Wiesn.
