Bad Schwalbach – Martinimarkt Bad Schwalbach 2026
What to expect
Martinimarkt Bad Schwalbach 2026 is scheduled to take place from 06.11.2026 to 10.11.2026. From 6 to 10 November 2026, the town of Bad Schwalbach will hold its Martinimarkt at several locations in the town centre. The funfair on Schmidtbergplatz is the main attraction, with rides and game stalls. Over the Martinmas weekend, market stalls in and around the town hall and a flea market on Wiedbachplatz are added. Here are the key details to help you prepare for your visit in good time.
Martinimarkt Bad Schwalbach 2026: Location and venue
Martinimarkt is spread across several locations: the funfair is on Schmidtbergplatz, while around Adolfstraße and the town hall you can also discover handmade goods and small treats. On Sunday, Wiedbachplatz becomes a flea market. So allow some time to walk between the locations. You will also find the address and a map below, so you can use the location to plan your route.
Rides, market stalls and food
The town lists rides, candyfloss, roasted almonds and bumper cars at the funfair. The stalls in front of the town hall focus particularly on crafts and personal gift ideas. The flea market invites you to browse for second-hand treasures. Martinimarkt therefore combines classic fair entertainment with a regional market experience. However, individual attractions may be unavailable or subject to last-minute changes during the event. So confirmed general offerings are not necessarily a complete list of all the showmen.
Programme and special experiences
The published programme includes a family day on Tuesday and the St Martin's procession, with St Martin on horseback. The procession starts at the Kurhaus and ends with a St Martin's bonfire and children's punch at Wiedbachschule. The different areas offer plenty of variety for children and families; nevertheless, you should check the individual offerings before your visit. If an exact time for a programme item has been officially announced, it will appear in the separate programme list. This keeps the regular opening hours clear and distinct from the stage and supporting programme.
Martinimarkt Bad Schwalbach 2026: Dates and opening hours
The town's detailed event page publishes the funfair opening hours for all five days. On Sunday, the funfair area opens earlier than on most other days. The final day's event ends in the early evening on Tuesday. The market stalls and flea market have different hours and are not additional funfair opening hours. We also recommend checking the latest announcements shortly before your visit. This is especially useful if you want to visit a particular attraction or ride.
Admission, costs and tips for families
There is no single published admission policy for the entire Martinimarkt. Individual rides and goods may be charged for. Whether special offers or discounts are available for particular attractions depends on their terms. Different options may appeal to children, accompanying adults and larger groups. Also, the prices charged by individual showmen are not the same as any possible site admission fee. If in doubt, ask at the relevant stalls.
Getting there and further information
Bad Schwalbach is in the Taunus and can be reached by regional bus services. If travelling by car, the town recommends parking options including Jahnplatz and Stahlbadehaus. As the town centre gets busier during the event, allow time for parking and walking to the markets. The official event information provides further details and any updates. You can also find additional markets and fairs in the Kirmestermine calendar. This helps you plan your trip using reliable information.
