*We advise travellers that: 
- There will be increased demand for accommodation and transportation during Oktoberfest.
- To behave responsibly and to respect local laws and customs. Australians have in the past been detained by German authorities for lengthy periods on charges of antisocial behaviour and assault. This type of behaviour has made it difficult for such offenders to enter Germany or other EU countries on later occasions.
