A legal dispute concerning the awarding of two major beer tents—specifically Schottenhamel and Paulaner—is causing concern about the timely setup of key Oktoberfest venues. The conflict stems from a bid by a local innkeeper, Alexander Egger, who is demanding that large festival tents be awarded through European public procurement rules. If the court's temporary injunction is extended, the construction of these major halls could halt, potentially leading to significant operational and logistical challenges for the event.
