Experience 30 interactive photo spots, amazing illusions, and local art across more than 1,000 m²—you've never seen Bavaria's highlights like this before! Balance on the slackline above Marienplatz, hang upside down in the magnificent King's Hall, or be enchanted by the sparkling ice crystal mirror room.
In the Oktoberfest hall, you can test your strength in the beer mug challenge and take the most original Oktoberfest photos – for example, on the XXL pretzel swing. Great fun for young and old alike and a real highlight for your photo album!
