Hosts and reservations
Anyone looking for a place in the festival tent now has the opportunity to make table reservations with the seven festival hosts. These are among the best known in the region: Greindl, Krönner, Lechner, Nothaft, Reisinger, Weckmann and Wenisch. However, it should be noted that at least 40 percent of the places remain reserved for spontaneous visitors, so that even those who decide at short notice have a chance of getting a place, especially during the day when the places in the brass band area are free.
However, the popular places are in demand. Especially on the weekends, many of them are already reserved by regular guests who have made the festival their summer highlight for years, according to a report from idowa.
