Hövelhof – Hövelmarkt 2027

Hövelmarkt 2027 is scheduled to take place from 01.10.2027 to 03.10.2027 in Hövelhof town centre, around Allee, Hövelmarkt-Platz and Stollmeiers Wiesen. The municipality of Hövelhof has confirmed the 213. Hövelmarkt for the first weekend in October 2027. This traditional local festival combines a classic funfair with a farmers' market, an Oktoberfest and activities for families. Verkehrsverein Hövelhof organises the festival and puts together a varied programme centred on community, music and socialising. Here you will also find the key information to help plan your visit.

Hövelmarkt 2027: venue and character of the festival

The heart of the festival is around Hövelmarkt-Platz and Allee. The previous edition included a farmers' market with regional products, a festival tent, a children's flea market and a Sunday when shops were open. The individual performers, programme times and special events for the new edition have not yet been confirmed. The history of Hövelmarkt goes back to the livestock and market stalls market, originally set up to promote the community's welfare. That is why the festival is part of local identity and not just a funfair with rides. For your visit, the specific venue is therefore more important than a general reference to the town. Different areas may also have separate entrances and routes. It is therefore worth getting your bearings in advance.

Rides, market stalls and more experiences

The municipality of Hövelhof has confirmed the 213. Hövelmarkt for the first weekend in October 2027. This traditional local festival combines a classic funfair with a farmers' market, an Oktoberfest and activities for families. Verkehrsverein Hövelhof organises the festival and puts together a varied programme centred on community, music and socialising. The showmen and individual attractions attending the 2027 edition may change before it begins. A historical line-up of rides does not confirm what will be there in the new year. We therefore list only the confirmed features of the festival and do not present rides from previous editions as confirmed attractions. Families in particular should also check the final programme information.

Hövelmarkt 2027: opening times and dates

The date of the next edition is known. The organisers have officially announced the date 2027. Specific opening times and programme times for 2027 have not yet been announced. We therefore will not show made-up opening or closing times until reliable operating hours are published. Details about shopping hours or programme times should not be confused with the opening times of the entire festival. Any additional exceptions, breaks or changes will only be listed as confirmed once the organisers have confirmed them. If you are travelling for a particular event, check the official announcement again beforehand.

Verkehrsverein confirms free admission to Hövelmarkt; individual rides, purchases and food and drink are chargeable. Individual rides and games have their own prices. Food, drinks and reservations may also cost extra. If you are visiting with children, discounts may be worth looking into. However, previous offers are not automatically repeated.

Getting there and finding your way around

You can reach the event site in Hövelhof town centre, around Allee, Hövelmarkt-Platz and Stollmeiers Wiesen. Depending on where you are travelling from, public transport may be a good alternative to driving. The area around the fairground can get busy on major funfair days, so allow plenty of time for your journey. Also look out for possible road closures and changes to parking arrangements. These are usually announced in detail shortly before the festival.
