Smoking OK at Oktoberfest

Smoking OK at Oktoberfest
Due to the Bavarian Cabinet plans announced steps early last week to relax a smoking ban that came into force in January, visitors at the Munich Oktoberfest will be able to smoke cigarettes in the crowded beer tents this year. Under the reprieve, beer tents and those serving wine or used for special functions will be exempted from the smoking ban for 12 months. “From January 1, 2009, the smoking ban will be enforced in the tents,” said Bavarian Prime Minister Guenther Beckstein.
