Loxstedt-Dedesdorf – Dedesdorfer Markt 2027
What to expect
Dedesdorfer Markt 2027: The Dedesdorfer Markt is expected to take place in the municipality of Loxstedt from Friday, 6 August to Monday, 9 August 2027. The four days of festivities follow the traditional market schedule before St Lawrence's Day. The period also fits the pattern from 2026. The municipality has not yet confirmed the 2027 edition individually. The listed date is therefore expressly provisional.
Dedesdorfer Markt 2027: Fairground and location
The fairground is on the market square between Dedesdorf and Eidewarden. A useful landmark is the junction of Landwürder Straße and Wiemsdorfer Kirchweg. The municipality of Loxstedt explicitly lists this site as Marktplatz Dedesdorf-Eidewarden. The market combines a fair and a festival tent. The Bürgerverein also organises its own events. The nearby Weser shapes the surroundings.
Rides and showmen
Dedesdorfer Markt traditionally features market stalls and various rides. These are complemented by events at the festival tent and those organised by the Bürgerverein. The showmen who will actually attend in August 2027 have not yet been officially announced. No individual ride names or invented minimum number of attractions are therefore listed. Even so, the market offers families and visitors a varied meeting place.
Food and entertainment
The festival tent usually hosts dance and music events. Food stalls and typical fairground attractions also add to the festive atmosphere. In edition 2026, a party in the tent was planned on several days. The market was also accompanied by a parade and a joint programme of events. The organiser has yet to announce which bands and associations will take part in 2027.
Dedesdorfer Markt 2027: Dates and opening times
The four event days are provisionally Friday, 6 August to Monday, 9 August 2027. The municipality had expressly announced the previous edition for 7 to 10 August 2026. However, no complete official operating hours for the funfair are available for 2027. The times of individual festival tent events from 2026 are not a substitute for general opening times of the market square. The hours are therefore not shown in the event listing for now.
Tradition and special highlights
Dedesdorfer Markt has a long history as a market and village fair. In 2026, there was a parade on Saturday. The traditional pig market followed on Monday. It included an auction, a raffle and the election of a market queen. Fireworks over the Weser are also known from previous editions. Highlights will only be added to the programme calendar after an official announcement for 2027.
