Sell entry tickets, beer token packages (10, 20, or 50 tokens), bratwurst deals, and VIP table arrangements through a shop themed to your Oktoberfest complete with Bavarian colors, pretzels, and beer mugs in the design. Mobile-friendly, super fast, and ready.
Live Monitoring of Beer Sales

Mobile Ticket Shop Optimized for Oktoberfest
Separate Webpage with Oktoberfest Theme
Let us host the ticket shop on a completely independent page in your Bavarian branding. Share the link via your Instagram bio, Facebook event for Oktoberfest, or WhatsApp groups of regulars – and you’re live.
Integration into Your Oktoberfest Website
Via an iFrame, you can effortlessly integrate the ticket shop into your festival website or event page. Place it directly next to your line-up with oompah bands, Bavarian dance groups, and the program of your beer tents. You don’t need any technical knowledge for this – it’s simply copy and paste.
Always Online, Even During
the Sales Rush for Beer Tokens
A ticket shop that’s available when it really matters: at the start of your pre-sale for VIP tables, when announcing which specialty beers you’re tapping, or when you share a discount code for early bird beer tokens. Fairtix is developed for stability and speed, so you don’t lose revenue through slow pages when hundreds of beer fans want to buy beer token packages simultaneously.
Stable Under Extreme Pressure During Beer Sales
Whether hundreds of beer fans are looking for VIP tables or thousands of Oktoberfest lovers want to order beer token packages simultaneously: your ticket shop keeps running lightning-fast, reliably, and stably. No crashes during the rush for early bird tickets – unless you deliberately activate a queue to regulate the sales rush when announcing your special German beer brand.
Lightning-Fast Ticket Purchase, Even on Smartphone in the Beer Tent
More than 90% of festival visitors buy tickets and beer tokens via their mobile – often in the evening on the couch while viewing the menu with bratwurst and schnitzel, or even during the festival itself when they want to buy extra beer tokens. The Fairtix ticket shop is therefore fully optimized for mobile use.
Measure the Conversion of
Your Oktoberfest Marketing
As an Oktoberfest organizer, you want to know exactly where your visitors come from. You invest in Facebook campaigns with photos of beer tents, posters with Bavarian graphics, and collaborations with local beer suppliers to sell more tickets. It’s therefore crucial to know which channel performs best for your beer festival. With Fairtix, you measure this easily via unique tracking links, traceable QR codes, and integrations with social media platforms.
Unique Tracking Links per Oktoberfest Channel
Create tracking links yourself per channel:
- Facebook Event – Your Oktoberfest event with line-up
- Instagram Stories – Behind-the-scenes of beer tent construction
- Newsletter – Mailing to previous visitors
This way you see exactly which source converts best for beer tokens and VIP tables.
Traceable QR Codes on Oktoberfest Posters
Print QR codes on posters with Bavarian graphics, flyers in cafés, and banners at the beer tent that show in real-time how many tickets and beer token packages you’re selling with them. Perfect for local promotional campaigns in pubs and at breweries.
Pixels for Social Media Advertising
Assign per scan device which ticket types are valid. Ideal for separate entrances for regular audience, VIPs, or press.
Fraud Prevention
Tickets show their own color per type when scanning. This way you prevent ticket fraud and maintain overview.

Access Management: Easy Scanning at
the Beer Tent with the Fairtix Insight App
With our expertise, we advise you on the optimal setup of access control for Oktoberfests with multiple beer tents, bratwurst stands, and music stages. We help you determine how many scan points you need for large groups of visitors in lederhosen and dirndls who want to enter simultaneously for the start of the live oompah band. Use the Fairtix Insight app on your own smartphone and manage separate accounts for staff who scan at different beer tents.
Scan Rights per Beer Tent or Zone
Set yourself what your staff at the main entrance, VIP tables, or beer garden may and may not see. Give specific rights to staff who scan beer tokens versus access tickets.
Look Up Tickets and Beer Tokens
Did a visitor forget or lose their ticket or beer token voucher during Oktoberfest? Simply search manually by name or email address and scan anyway.
Real-Time Synchronization During Beer Festival
So you can always see exactly how many visitors are in your beer tent, how many VIP tables are occupied, and how many beer tokens have already been redeemed at the bar.
Scan by Color Codes for Different Zones
A unique scan color per ticket type – for example:
- Blue for regular beer tent access
- Gold for VIP tables with table service
- Green for weekend passes (Friday through Sunday)
- Orange for beer token packages (10, 20, or 50 tokens)
- Red for backstage access (bands and crew)
- Purple for children’s zone (alcohol-free)
Guest List Tickets for
Your Oktoberfest
At an Oktoberfest, a guest list is essential. Sometimes you want to quickly send free access tickets or beer tokens last-minute to oompah bands, beer suppliers, sponsors, local hospitality partners, or special guests who open your beer tent.
Free Guest List Tickets
Send free access tickets and beer tokens to your guest list without hassle, such as live bands, beer brewers, bratwurst suppliers, or VIP guests who perform the first tap. Everything happens quickly and efficiently via email or WhatsApp, so you can focus on building your beer tent and pouring the perfect beer.
Payment Requests for Upgrades
Create separate invitations and link them to payment requests for, for example, an exclusive VIP table with table service, extra beer token packages, or a backstage tour along the brewery setup. This way you can also offer premium services to guest list visitors, such as a meet & greet with the oompah band or access to the private beer garden.
Set Permissions
for Your Team
You don’t organize an Oktoberfest alone. That’s why it’s important that your team – from beer tent managers to scanning staff at the entrance – easily get access to the ticketing platform. You determine yourself who can do what: who manages guest lists, who can distribute beer tokens, and who has access to VIP table reservations. This way you work together clearly without security risks during the busy festival period.
