Amsterdam – Familiekermis Westerpark 2027

The Familiekermis Amsterdam Westerpark 2027 is scheduled to take place from Friday, 5 March, to Sunday, 14 March 2027. The date is listed in current funfair calendars for the 2027 edition as verified by the organiser; a dedicated announcement with a programme is not yet available on its website. Westerpark in Amsterdam-West has been the setting for this popular spring funfair for many years.

Familiekermis Amsterdam Westerpark 2027: Location

The rides are traditionally set up in Westerpark near the former Westergasfabriek. The entertainment area stretches along the Haarlemmervaart, forming a lively funfair strip. The park is also not far from Amsterdam's central neighbourhoods. You can therefore combine a visit to the funfair with an outing in the green surroundings or a visit to nearby places to eat. However, a confirmed site plan for March 2027 has not yet been published; the exact layout of the businesses may change from year to year.

Rides and showmen

In previous editions, the organiser presented a mix of children's carousels, family-friendly rides and attractions for teenagers. Independent reports describe this type of fair as featuring several dozen showmen. However, the specific line-up of rides for 2027 has not yet been officially published. For this reason, no attractions from the previous year are automatically listed as current participants. When planning your visit, it is worth checking the new site plan later, especially if you are travelling to Amsterdam for a particular major ride.

Frans Stuy and the funfair tradition

Familiekermis is organised by Frans Stuy Evenementenorganisatie, formerly known as Kermisplaza. The organisation runs various funfairs and leisure events in Amsterdam. In 2026, Familiekermis Westerpark was officially held from 6 to 15 March. The annual March date makes the event an early start to the funfair season in the capital. However, anniversaries, special events and guest appearances from previous editions are not confirmed programme items for March 2027.

Familiekermis Amsterdam Westerpark 2027: Admission

At this family-oriented fair, the public funfair grounds can normally be visited without a general admission ticket. Individual rides, games and food are paid for at the stalls. It is particularly important to distinguish between free access and paid attractions. Confirmed daily opening hours for 2027 are not yet available. Afternoon and evening opening times are known from previous years, but they are not listed as confirmed operating hours. The structured timetable therefore remains empty for now.

Getting there by public transport and bicycle

Westerpark is in the Amsterdam-West district on Haarlemmerweg. You can get there by public transport or bicycle. Stops around the park offer several options for a short walk to the funfair. As traffic in Amsterdam is heavy and parking is limited, travelling without a car is often convenient. The specific access routes to the fairground and any closures for the set-up 2027 have yet to be announced. Please follow local signs and the organiser's instructions.

Official information and more dates

Frans Stuy Evenementenorganisatie is the official organiser's website and provides information about upcoming funfairs. You can also find more Dutch fairs in the events calendar. The ten days in March 2027 are listed as the announced period, but daily opening hours and the list of rides are still to come.
