Frequently asked questions
How much is a liter (Maß) of beer at Oktoberfest 2026?
The verified 2026 average price across Munich's festival tents is €15.61 per liter, with individual tents ranging from €14.80 to €15.90. That's a 2.38% increase over 2025.
Does this include food, rides, or accommodation?
No — this calculator tracks only your personal beer spend. Total Oktoberfest trip budgets (including flights, hotel, food, and rides) run much higher; this tool isolates just the beer line item so you can plan that part precisely.
Will this calculator still be accurate next year?
The 2026 price is built as a single labeled constant, so when 2027 pricing is announced, this tool can be updated with a one-line change rather than a full rebuild — check back each September for the current year's verified price.
Why can I edit the exchange rate?
Exchange rates change daily. We show an approximate EUR/USD rate as of late September 2026, but you can type in your own current rate for a more precise USD estimate.
