Working Up a Stay at Oktoberfest: The New Wiesnchef's Hotel Hangout
Hotel proprietor assumes management role at Oktoberfest event - Oktoberfest Organizer Relocates to Hotel During Festivities.
Get ready for some beer garden action, folks! The new Wiesnchef and economic affairs officer, Christian Scharpf (SPD), is swapping his cozy abode in Maxvorstadt district for a hotel room right next to Oktoberfest. He's not doing it for the thrill; practicality is the name of the game. After booking his own dime room, Scharpf can zip on-site in a jiffy when the festival peaks!
With the festival season looming, the Wiesn chief is eying an early shift, complete with a security briefing. 'Mornings here mean a quick huddle with the boys in blue,' Scharpf shared with the German Press Agency, before diving into a stacked schedule of one meeting after another. After all, the Show Must Go On, and this passionate Wiesn visitor wants to make sure everything flows like beer spilling from a stein.
But let's talk about the real challenge—the deafening decibel levels inside the beer tents. Scharpf is no stranger to brewery-buzzed conversations, but sometimes, shouting to be heard becomes a lusty workout for his vocal cords. And, hey, who knew Tootsie Rolls would become his trusty sidekick? Armed with these delightful treats, Scharpf aims to keep his vocal chords in check during the festivities.
Scharpf's role extends beyond festival operations. During Oktoberfest, countless networking events for associations, organizations, and companies take place, and our man's always in the heart of the action. He swears by the Breakdance ride—fast, wild, and not too high. Sounds like a thrilling mix of his Oktoberfest responsibilities and personal delight!
Hotel lodging isn't a novel idea. Christian Scharpf follows the path paved by his predecessor, Clemens Baumgaertner (CSU). Bumming a room near the festival grounds was a new strategy for Baumgaertner in 2022, a move inspired by the need for swift action in case of emergencies. Turns out, hotel stays work like a charm during the crowd-packed Oktoberfest scene in Munich!
