Well for one, the governing party in bavaria (CSU) is heavily against cannabis so that might play its part. But also, if you’re happily blazed you won’t buy the absurdly expensive beer at the Oktoberfest. If you aren’t high they can sell you beer for 15€/litre so you can get drunk instead and make them lots of profit.

Well in 2023 it was between 12,60€ and 14,80€ in 2023 for a Maß (1l) so it might just crack the 15€ mark this year. But the Oktoberfest in Munich is legendarily expensive. Like, that’s basically double what you pay in a regular Biergarten in Bavaria, outside of the cities. And there are more than enough willing to pay that price.
