What to expect

Meifoor Houthulst 2027 is scheduled according to the municipality’s fixed annual rule from Friday, 30 April, to Sunday, 9 May 2027. The funfair at the market in Houthulst traditionally starts on the weekend before Ascension Day and ends on the Sunday after it. The specific 2027 date has been calculated from this official rule; a separate notice with opening times has not yet been published.

Meifoor Houthulst 2027: Funfair in the heart of the town

The market in the centre of Houthulst becomes a meeting place for funfair fans around Ascension Day. The municipality describes Meifoor as an annual event centred on tradition and spending time together. You’ll find the venue in the centre of this municipality in West Flanders. The rides, game stalls and food stalls taking part in 2027 have not yet been officially announced.

Traditions around Ascension Day

Meifoor is more than just a single funfair day. The official events page also describes the accompanying traditions: a large market is usually held on Ascension Day. The free music festival Mei-Rockje is part of the funfair programme on the Saturday afterwards. The municipality also describes fireworks at the end of the last Sunday evening. The current notice still needs to confirm whether and at what times all these events will take place in 2027. So no firm event dates have been listed here yet.

Meifoor Houthulst 2027 opening times

The general event information gives the dates, but no definitive daily schedule for Meifoor Houthulst 2027. Nor is there a complete, verified official schedule from the previous year. We therefore don’t show made-up opening times. Information about admission, prices for individual attractions or discounts has also not yet been published for 2027. Check before your visit, especially if you plan to come in the evening for the funfair’s final day.

How to get to the market in Houthulst

Use Markt 1, 8650 Houthulst as your reference point. The funfair site is in the centre, where traffic and parking rules may temporarily change during the event. We don’t yet have any specific official information about this for 2027. Allow plenty of time for your journey and follow local signs. Information about toilets, accessibility and other services will be added once confirmed.

Official information about Meifoor

Don’t confuse the spring Meifoor with the September funfair in Houthulst or the well-known Meifoor in Bruges. They are separate events. Our funfair calendar can help you plan other trips. The official events page of the Municipality of Houthulst is the authoritative source for the annual rule. It also publishes any newer programme and organisation updates. Until then, the exact times and line-up of rides remain unconfirmed.
