Spring fair 2027: rides and line-up
The Nuremberg fair is known for its mix of roller coasters, fast carousels, family rides, walk-through attractions and traditional showmen’s stalls. The attractions that will actually be set up at Spring fair 2027 have not yet been announced. A specific line-up of showmen or confirmed new rides has not yet been published either. Information from previous editions therefore gives only an impression of the event’s general format and is not a guarantee for 2027.
Festival tents and food
Franconian fairground food, sweets, snacks and places to eat are all part of the usual offering at Volksfestplatz. The official website also lists booking options at various festival food venues for current editions. Which festival tents, beer gardens and food outlets will take part in 2027 has not yet been confirmed. Menus, booking times and prices for Spring fair 2027 have not yet been published either.
Programme and family days
The organiser regularly offers special days and entertainment programmes at the Nuremberg fair. Wednesdays usually feature a family day with discounted offers from 14 to 21. The specific dates and terms for 2027 still need to be confirmed in the annual programme. Fireworks, historic tram rides, guided tours, afternoons for older visitors and other themed days have also not yet been officially announced for Spring fair 2027.
History and significance
The official history of the fair dates the beginnings of the Nuremberg fair to 1826. Since then, the event has become a regular part of Nuremberg’s events calendar. The organiser reports more than two million visits to the fair overall; this general figure is not a visitor forecast for spring 2027. Traditional fair culture and modern showmanship continue to shape the event.
