Munich's Oktoberfest 2011 (17 September - 3 October 2011) was visited by 6.9 million people who consumed a record 7.5 million litres (1.65 million UK gal; 1.98 million US gal) of beer in 35 beer tents offering 105,000 seats, that stand on a site as large as 1,600 (double) tennis courts. Similar quantities of beer were consumed at the 2015 and 2018 events.
The event area 'Theresienwiese' covers 42 ha (103.78 acres), but only 31 ha (76.6 acres) are used for the Oktoberfest.
