Pinksterenkermis Helchteren 2027 at Begijnenplein

The well-known location is Begijnenplein in Helchteren, a locality in Houthalen-Helchteren in the province of Limburg. The municipality also names the square as the site of the funfair 2026. This makes it easy to pinpoint the event, even though a new site plan for 2027 has not yet been published. The event has a local character and is not one of the large city fairs with long rows of rides.

Rides and funfair atmosphere

At previous editions, the municipality invited visitors to enjoy rides, treats and traditional funfair stalls. The offer was also intended for families. The showmen 2027 actually coming to Helchteren have not yet been announced. We therefore deliberately do not name any specific rides or ride prices. Once an official line-up of rides is available, you can look out for your favourites.

Pinksterenkermis Helchteren 2027: dates and programme

Pentecost Sunday is confirmed as the main day by the official annual rule. In 2026, according to the official announcement, the event ran from Saturday to Monday. However, these additional days have not yet been individually confirmed for 2027, so they are not listed as funfair days. A stage programme, special activities or other events for 2027 have not been announced either.

Opening hours and admission

Daily opening hours for 2027 have not yet been published. The organiser's announcement for 2026 gives the start and end dates of the whole event, but no reliable daily opening times for the rides. Access to the funfair was officially stated to be free of charge for 2026; no separate price information is available for 2027 yet. Individual rides and purchases may incur charges regardless of access to the site.

Getting there and finding your way around

To get there, you can start by heading to Begijnenplein in 3530 Helchteren. During a fair, roads and parking spaces may temporarily be used differently. It is therefore worth checking the municipality's traffic notices before travelling. If you are coming from nearby, you can also walk to the square. No confirmed information about shuttle buses, parking arrangements or accessibility for 2027 is available yet.

Official information

The municipality includes the Helchteren Pentecost funfair in its annual funfair overview. You can check there later for updated information. You can also find more events in the Kirmestermine calendar. The Sunday listed here was calculated from the official Pentecost rule; a separate date announcement for 2027 is not yet available.
