Rotenburg (Wümme) – Rotenburger Herbstmarkt 2027
What to expect
Rotenburger Herbstmarkt 2027 takes place, in accordance with the official market regulations of the town of Rotenburg (Wümme), from Friday, 8 October, to Sunday, 10 October 2027. The town holds the autumn market in the first full week of October. The market runs from Friday to Sunday. Therefore, the often-quoted period of 1 to 3 October for 2027 is incorrect. The venue is Lohmarkt and Birkenweg. The funfair features rides, funfair treats and market stalls.
Rotenburger Herbstmarkt 2027 at Lohmarkt
Rotenburger Herbstmarkt is one of the two major funfairs organised by the town itself. A spring market is also held at the same location. The autumn market takes place at Lohmarkt and along Birkenweg. Regular parking is not available there during the event. Traffic is therefore diverted in the surrounding area, and the best way to reach the event area is on foot from the edge of the fairground.
Funfair rides and family activities
Typical attractions include bumper cars, circular rides and children’s carousels. Walk-through attractions and other entertainment are also part of the event. The municipal market regulations permit shows, games and typical market stalls. Which businesses will actually attend 2027 is not yet known. No complete official line-up of rides is available. Therefore, no old ride is presented as a current participant. Children’s attractions and ride prices can also change from year to year.
Rotenburger Autumn Market 2027: Dates and opening hours
The market follows the opening hours published by the city, from 13 to 24 on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. These times are stated in the official market schedule and are therefore entered in full in the MEC timetable. The official rule specifies the first full week of October. The market therefore takes place 2027 only on the second weekend in October. For 2027, this means 8 to 10 October. No additional special opening has been confirmed.
Food stalls, sweets and a traditional fair
Alongside the rides, there are usually market stalls, confectionery and food stands. The autumn market combines a wide range of market stalls with a classic fair visit. Children and adults can take turns using the rides, winning small prizes in games or taking a break at a food stand. Based on past practice, admission to the public market site is free. The individual businesses set their own prices for rides, games, shopping and food.
Tradition and organisation by the city
The city of Rotenburg holds both the spring market and the autumn market according to fixed market regulations. Showmen must apply for a pitch. According to the city, applications must be received by 31 March of the relevant year. This means the specific line-up of rides can only be determined later. As a result, the funfair is a little different each year, while the date rules and location remain the same.
