- solid line and the police are satisfied with this year’s Oktoberfest. Because there are fewer visitors as 2015 arrived, it was much more relaxed in and around the tents.
- Also, the controversial fence, which was built this year for the first time, around the Theresienwiese, had been well accepted, according to police.
- The number of sexual offences has in fact increased significantly, from 21 in the previous year to 31.
When you hear talk about the managers as it sounds, as the Oktoberfest in 2016 would have been exactly as you wanted it to have always been. “Oktoberfest as in the past” speaks to her boss, the mayor, Josef Schmid, a “feel-good-Oktoberfest” and a “Good-mood-Wiesn”. Just as if the Munich all would have sat the year before, only 16 days miserable and grantelnd in front of your mass jugs.
true, But it is of course also because the number of visitors was comparatively low – in 2001 it was 5.5 million visitors is still low -was the Oktoberfest this Time much more relaxed and therefore more pleasant than otherwise. To his excesses: On the vernacular so-called “Kotzhügel” (police spokesman Marcus da Gloria Martins worked here as a sort of language policeman and renamed it the “green hill”), there was significantly less ugly scenes as usual. What is likely to be due to the fact that this year there was for the first time, a fence above the hill, “where every 50 meters, there were three folders,” as Schmid performs.
All of the fence: Prior to the opening of the festival, he was the great controversy theme, meanwhile, seemed only a few visitors to perceive him at all. And as for the green hills, they have also been found for the fence is a lovely formulation in the Oktoberfest-nice speech. “Wire mesh curtain,” called him Schmid on Monday.
All had been approved the safety measures very well, say Schmid and da Gloria Martins: “There was great approval especially in the case of the population of Munich, the officials consistently report.” Also, the controls at the entrances were, after initial difficulties, almost smoothly. Reports of individual competence exceedances of the folder confirmed that neither the city nor the police.
For the last medium, the total blocking of the site, had to attack the city. “The Oktoberfest was crowded at any time,” says Schmid. Most of the tents had to be a few days closed. Significantly less full than usual, the subways and the train station is Theresienwiese. The Munich transport company speaks of a “smooth” traffic. You have observed also that many guests were walking from the train station to the festival site on the go.
The hosts are likely to have seen this “chill” Wiesn, as Schmid calls it, with mixed feelings. Nevertheless, Toni Roiderer, the spokesman for the owners of the large tents, exercise, as always, in traditional Bavarian of Serenity. But, he says, he would like to sell more beer. “But heier’s amoi ned aso get.” So you have made this year, no details are given about the drunk beer volumes, as it was in the past years. About twelve to 15 percent less, it should have been, would still have a good six million Mass. The summary of the Lorenz Stiftl, the spokesman of the so-called small innkeepers, nevertheless positive. Overall, it was “very satisfied”.
Except for the novelty that you could also look spontaneous, just like at the Festival, there was also this year again features. So you saw much less adventurous costumes (kilts, you get used to it), the Hendlhut this year was with the wiggling legs a hit, even if the supplies did not materialize due to delivery difficulties.
was New at the same time, the battle cry of the Icelandic football fans of the EM, the moulted in many tents to something like the secret hit like that. The uncanny, or real Hit was “Hulapalu” by Andreas Gabalier, followed by “Ham kummst” by Seiler and javelin two titles, as they could not be more different, and yet equally, the masses enthusiastic. “Atemlos durch die Nacht” by Helene Fischer you heard, however, rare.
With all the affirmative sentences about a relaxed Oktoberfest must of course be clear that from the point of view of the police is still a lot happening. With 2136 inserts the pointed guard had to do almost as much as in the previous year. However, police Vice-President Werner Feiler speaks in its provisional balance sheet of a “peaceful, quiet Oktoberfest”. There were significantly fewer fights, even those that were used in those mass jugs, a decline in the number of Bag thefts and significantly less crime.
Not a homicide, a robbery, the police could not be with the history of the Oktoberfest completely satisfied, there would be a remarkable increase in the number of sexual offences from 21 in the previous year to 31 this year. Because the Wiesn is quiet, would have been able to look at the official “closer,” Feiler explains the development. Notes on a terrorist threat but did not receive the police. “Not even a threat there was.”
