Koewacht – Internationale Meikermismarkt 2027
What to expect
Meikermismarkt Koewacht 2027 takes place on Sunday, 2 May 2027. The organiser has explicitly announced the 41 edition of the cross-border fair for the first Sunday in May. This is particularly convenient for your visit: you can stroll through a market that connects the Dutch and Belgian parts of the border village of Koewacht in one day.
Meikermismarkt Koewacht 2027: a market across the border
The fair is more than an ordinary row of market stalls. The participating market organisations connect the Dutch town of Koewacht with the neighbouring Belgian municipalities. This creates a special market atmosphere where you can cross the border almost without noticing as you stroll around. For previous editions, the official organiser website describes a market route of approximately one and a half kilometres. However, the exact route and stall plan for 2027 have not yet been published.
Market stalls, traders and food breaks
In previous years, numerous traders from various sectors shaped the market. The organiser usually lists around 150 stall spaces. This describes the size of previous editions and is not a confirmed figure for 2027. It is therefore not yet clear how many traders will actually take part or what products they will offer. There are also opportunities to take a break at local restaurants. If you want to visit a particular stall, you should wait for the latest plan.
Opening hours: Meikermismarkt Koewacht 2027
For Meikermismarkt Koewacht 2027, the organiser's website lists the usual hours as 09:30 to 18:00. These hours are therefore included in the calendar as a basis for planning. If the organisers announce different hours for 2027, the newer official information takes precedence. The admission price has not yet been explicitly confirmed for 2027; any charges for individual attractions are also still unknown.
Don't confuse the funfair with the market
Internationale Meikermismarkt is the officially confirmed one-day market. Koewacht also traditionally has a funfair with rides, which may run for several days. However, there is not enough official confirmation here about its specific operating days or the line-up of rides 2027. This calendar entry therefore covers only the confirmed market day. Rides are not presented as confirmed.
How to find the market
Koewacht lies on the border between Zeeland and East Flanders. Nieuwstraat is included in this entry only as a point of reference in the border village, not as a confirmed stall plan for 2027. As the market may extend across several streets and national borders, it is a good idea to check the organiser's updates shortly before travelling. Information about designated parking areas, road closures or accessible entrances for the 2027 edition has not yet been published.
