Jonschwil – Chilbi Jonschwil 2027

The Chilbi Jonschwil 2027 is expected to take place from Friday, 3 September, to Sunday, 5 September 2027. The dates are based on the first weekend in September and the 2026 edition. No separate official date confirmation for 2027 has been issued yet. Traditionally, you can expect fair rides, club stalls and a welcoming village atmosphere around the primary school grounds.

Chilbi Jonschwil 2027: grounds at the school

Traditionally, Jonschwil celebrates around its primary school grounds on the first weekend in September. The school grounds and nearby areas become a meeting place for families and local clubs. Here, you can move between smaller rides, food stalls and community activities. This makes the village fair quite different from a large regional fair. However, the exact layout of the stalls and traffic arrangements for September 2027 have not yet been announced.

Looking back at Chilbi 2026

In September 2026, Jonschwil's Chilbi ran from Friday to Sunday. According to a regional report, there were market stalls, rides and various club-run food stalls. The 2026 edition also began earlier than usual, with a larger opening party on Friday evening at the school grounds. Musicians and DJs provided entertainment. This information is only a look back at the previous year and does not confirm that the same artists or programme items will feature in the next edition. It does, however, give you an idea of the village fair's character.

Rides, market stalls and food and drink

The village fair usually includes activities for children, smaller and larger showman attractions, and games. Local clubs also run various stalls and food stands, so a visit is worthwhile even if you don't go on the rides. No specific list of showmen, rides or exhibitors is available for 2027 yet. Names from previous editions are therefore not automatically listed as participants. Children's activities and musical performances can also vary each year; an updated programme has yet to be published.

Chilbi Jonschwil 2027: admission and opening hours

The public area around the primary school grounds is usually free to enter during the village fair. Individual rides, games and food and drink may cost extra. The period from 3 to 5 September 2027 is still only an expected date range based on the usual weekend, not an officially confirmed annual announcement. As a result, reliable opening hours for all the rides are not yet available. The MEC calendar leaves the daily schedule blank rather than making up standard hours.

Getting to Jonschwil

Jonschwil is in the canton of St. Gallen, in the Wil region. If you travel by bus and train, you can use the regional services to the village and walk the rest of the way to the primary school grounds. Drivers may face temporary restrictions near the school grounds, as parking spaces are needed during the event. Specific parking locations or a traffic restriction plan for 2027 have not yet been published. Check the local council's information shortly before your visit.

Official information and other Chilbis

Information from the Jonschwil local council can help you check the latest event date and any traffic changes. You can also find other regional fairs in the funfair and fair calendar. The dates shown follow the usual Chilbi schedule but have not yet been officially confirmed for 2027.
