Munich's Theresienwiese in 2025: There will be some traffic changes around the Wiesn - also due to the construction of the new railway bridge on Poccistrasse. Because: in exactly 67 days, if we do the math, Mayor Dieter Reiter will tap the first keg of beer. He will present the first liter of Munich Oktoberfest beer to the state's father, Minister-President Markus Söder - according to tradition.
