Theresienwiese is a public space in the Ludwigsvorstadt-Isarvorstadt district of Munich. It covers and is best known as the site of the annual Oktoberfest.
The grounds border the Ruhmeshalle and Bavaria statue in the west and Esperantoplatz in the east, where a memorial commemorates the victims of the 1980 Oktoberfest bombing. The surrounding ring road, Bavariaring, provides access. To the north stands St. Paul's Church.
