Wels – Welser Volksfest 2027

Welser Volksfest 2027 takes place from 2 to 4 April 2027 in Wels. The organiser is promoting thrilling rides, regional specialities and music acts. There will be a test lighting and Tracht Night on 1 April, while the fair itself begins on 2 April. The date was published on the organiser's or official tourism website for 2027. Here you'll find the key details at a glance for your next fair visit.

Welser Volksfest 2027: Venue

The site is by Messe Wels. The fair combines an amusement park with food and opportunities to meet people in the Upper Austrian region. The venue is the Festwiese at Messe Wels in Austria. Depending on the programme, you can also combine a traditional market visit with other activities. The character of each fair is particularly interesting: it can range from a large funfair with rides to a family-friendly local fair.

Welser Volksfest 2027: Highlights and programme

The programme has a distinct springtime feel. A full named line-up of rides for 2027 has not yet been included in the date announcement. When planning, it is also important to bear in mind that an event can run over several days without offering the same attractions or programme every day. We therefore clearly distinguish confirmed details from information that has not yet been published. A full line-up will only be added once a reliable list from the organiser is available.

Tradition, cuisine and atmosphere

At this Austrian festival, local character plays an important role. Depending on the type of event, music, food and drink, regional products or rides also add to the experience. The published programme determines what takes place on the day you visit. Rather than promise programme highlights that have not been confirmed, we recommend checking the organiser’s original information.

Admission and opening hours

No confirmed general admission price has been announced for this edition yet. So we won’t give you an invented amount. A full schedule for 2027 has not been announced yet, so we won’t show estimated start or end times. You can also find the latest information directly on the official website. Check before travelling whether the times or event schedule have changed.
