I took a walk to the Wies'n on Saturday at about lunchtime to get a look at how things were kicking off.
Even though it started off a pretty miserable day, that didn't stop the people flooding in.
One of the many Wies'n babes that can be seen wandering around.
The scenes inside a couple of the tents in the early afternoon.
A couple of early casualties.
Some of the great scenery on display.
Various shots around the place.
The Höfbraü tent was full and closed by three o'clock, plenty of security on display and lots n lots of chicken being cooked.
On one hand you've got the typical Bavarian visitor, and on the other hand a very suspicious looking biker-type.
One of the rides at the fairground end of the Wiesn.
While thousands are enjoying themselves, there are hundreds working to keep the beers flowing. It's a tough (but very well paid) job.
The following are some pictures from the Wall of Death show that is on. Pretty impressive stuff, especially the three-bike race that they had at the end.
