Steinfurt-Borghorst – Summer funfair 2027
What to expect
Summer funfair Steinfurt-Borghorst 2027: The summer funfair takes place in Steinfurt-Borghorst from Saturday, 31 July, to Monday, 2 August 2027. The district town designates the first Sunday in August as the fixed annual funfair date. The event begins on the preceding Saturday and ends the following Monday. The date for 2027 has therefore been calculated from the official annual rule; a specific announcement from the town is still pending.
Sommerkirmes Steinfurt-Borghorst 2027: fairground
The summer funfair takes place in the centre of Borghorst, around Neuer Markt. For the occasion, the town-centre spaces are transformed into a funfair site with rides and stalls. Nearby streets are also temporarily closed to traffic during set-up and the event. The shops in the area are only a short walk from the rides, so you can easily combine a visit with a stroll around Borghorst.
Rides and showmen
For the 2026 edition, the town announced a total of 22 rides and food stalls. This refers only to the past summer funfair and is not a promised number for 2027. The usual market scene also includes larger and smaller attractions for families. The individual showmen and rides coming next summer have not yet been fully announced officially. We therefore do not list any previous-year ride as confirmed for 2027.
Food and family activities
Food vans and confectionery stalls complement the rides in the market square. You can grab a snack between rides and then explore the games stalls. Traditionally, the organisers cater for families and visitors of all ages. The short distances between attractions are particularly convenient for children. In the evening, the illuminated rides also create a different atmosphere from an afternoon visit.
Sommerkirmes Steinfurt-Borghorst 2027: dates and opening hours
The town of Steinfurt has set the market hours on a permanent basis. The official opening hours for Saturday, Sunday and Monday are therefore listed in full. The first Sunday in August is 2027 August 1. This means the three festival days run from 31 July to 2 August. Any special arrangements announced for a particular year's event will, of course, take precedence.
Festival tradition and programme
For the Saturday of the 2026 edition, the town of Steinfurt announced a happy hour with discounted ride prices. It has not yet been confirmed whether a similar promotion will take place again on 31 July 2027. There is also no binding new participant list or set times for individual programme items. Neither the happy hour nor any other special offers are therefore listed as confirmed dates in the events calendar.
