Lingen (Ems) – Lingener Frühjahrskirmes 2027
What to expect
The Lingener Frühjahrskirmes 2027 is provisionally planned to run from Friday, 30 April to Monday, 3 May 2027. The date is listed in funfair calendars for the upcoming edition, but has not yet been specifically confirmed by the city of Lingen. The well-known spring funfair takes place at the fairground by the EmslandArena. You can expect rides, children's carousels, games of chance and numerous food and drink stalls. Admission to the public funfair site is usually free.
Lingener Frühjahrskirmes 2027 at the fairground
The large fairground on Lindenstraße is right next to the EmslandArena. In spring, families, young people and funfair fans from Lingen and the Emsland region gather there. The city organises this regular event together with the participating showmen. It is therefore a fixture in the region's events calendar. The announced dates are based on the weekend around the first Sunday in May. The specific edition 2027 still needs to be confirmed by the city.
Rides for children and thrill-seekers
The 2026 edition featured both classic funfair attractions and larger rides. These included, for example, a Ferris wheel, bumper cars, various round rides, a roller coaster and attractions for children. These names and rides refer exclusively to the 2026 edition. Their participation 2027 is therefore not yet confirmed. Once a current line-up of rides or a specific announcement from a showman refers to the upcoming edition, the relevant attraction profiles can be added. Game and confectionery stalls are also usually part of the fair.

Opening times provisional, as of 2026. For the previous edition, the city of Lingen stated that the funfair opened daily at 14. On Fridays and Saturdays, the funfair closed at 23, and on Sundays and Mondays at 22. This handy timetable uses the previous year's times as a guide, without presenting them as new official opening times for 2027. Special rules for public holidays or changes may apply during the upcoming dates. So check the latest information from the city before your visit.
Family day, fireworks and market tradition
For 2026, the city held a family day with discounted prices on the first day of the fair. A traditional fireworks display also took place on the opening evening. These highlights make the event especially appealing to many visitors. However, it has not yet been officially confirmed whether both activities will return in the same format on Friday, 30 April 2027. They are therefore not yet listed as confirmed programme items in the events calendar. The exact times and any special activities still need to be announced.
