Herzkasperl-Festzelt
Offering a diverse music program, the tent is at times transformed into a music club. Not exclusively your traditional beer tent, there are many vegan dishes on the menu.
The concept of the Herzkasperl tent (Herzkasperl is a portmanteau derived from heart attack and Punch) has little in common with the Oide Wiesn’s focus on the spirit of the Oktoberfests of the past. Every day, two different bands play there, which are mostly part of the new folk music or cabaret scene. And some of them have pretty big names in Bavaria. Depending on what kind of band performs, the tent’s atmosphere varies greatly and often resembles a music club more than a beer tent.
In addition to the headliners, each day also features two traditional orchestras and even live music in the beer garden during the afternoon. The Hacker-Pschorr beer is poured from wooden kegs and served in Keferlohers (Steins). The menu offers a surprising variety of vegan and vegetarian items.
