Stanz in the Mürztal – Katharina Fair 2027

Katharina-Kirtag Stanz im Mürztal 2027 is expected to take place, following the pattern of previous years, on Sunday, 21 November 2027 in the town centre of the municipality of Stanz im Mürztal. Official confirmation of the date 2027 is still pending. Here you can find out what is known about the traditional market, whether there is an admission charge and what to bear in mind when travelling there.

Katharina-Kirtag Stanz im Mürztal 2027: expected date

In edition 2025, Katharinakirtag fell on 23 November; in edition 2026, it fell on 22 November. In both cases, it was a Sunday. Both dates fall on the Sunday before 25 November, St Catherine’s Day. Following this recurring pattern, the date for 2027 would be Sunday, 21 November. However, a new official announcement for edition 2027 is still pending. The date in our calendar is therefore explicitly provisional and may be updated after the organiser’s next announcement.

Market area and funfair tradition

In Stanz im Mürztal, Katharina-Kirtag is a meeting place for the village community and visitors from the region. The fair takes place across several areas in the village centre. The municipal notice for 2026 describes an area stretching from Kost-Nix-Laden to Postplatz. There are also local exhibitors and the opportunity to discover handmade or regional goods. It has not yet been finally confirmed which locations will be used again in 2027. The facilities at the fairground may also change from year to year.

Katharina-Kirtag Stanz im Mürztal 2027: Cuisine and community

The previous edition advertised food, musical entertainment and activities for children. Spending time together is also part of the event’s character. You can combine your visit with a walk through the centre of Stanz. However, the detailed programme for November 2027 has not yet been announced. Names of music groups and specific times are therefore not carried over from 2026. It is worth checking again shortly before your visit.

Market stalls, children's activities and possible rides

The fair brings together market stalls, craftsmanship and opportunities for visitors to meet. A confirmed list of the individual traders 2027 is not yet available. There is also no sufficiently specific information about mechanical rides or showmen's businesses. For this reason, no unconfirmed line-up of rides is listed. According to reports so far, the event is primarily a regional market with a traditional programme.

Opening hours and admission

For the 2026 edition, the municipality ran the Kirtag as an all-day event. Other reports listed individual programme start times, but no fully reliable daily schedule. The specific opening hours for 2027 therefore remain unpublished for now. The public Kirtag area has so far been accessible without a separate admission ticket. Costs may apply for purchases, catering or separate activities. Any additional admission conditions for 2027 will be checked once published.

Getting there and location of the event

The Kirtag takes place in the area around Postplatz and Gemeindevorplatz in Stanz im Mürztal. Use the address Stanz im Mürztal 61, 8653 Stanz im Mürztal as a guide. If you are travelling by car, look out for possible restrictions in the town centre. Depending on where you are travelling from, regional bus services may also be an option. Specific traffic measures for 2027 have not yet been announced. You can also find more fairs in Styria in our funfair calendar.
