Tamsweg – December Kirtag (Herbstkirtag) 2027

The Tamsweg December Kirtag 2027, officially known as Tamsweger Herbstkirtag, is provisionally scheduled for Monday, 29 November 2027. According to the municipality's published market regulations, the Herbstkirtag takes place on the first Monday in Advent. In 2027, this is 29 November, so it is still in November. However, the actual Kirtag in 2026 was moved to 7 December. The date therefore needs to be checked particularly carefully; alternatively, based on the most recent December pattern, it could fall on 6 December 2027 if the municipality makes an exception again.

Tamsweg December Kirtag 2027: market area

Tamsweger Herbstkirtag is held as a traditional market in the centre of the Lungau district capital. In recent years, the stalls have been spread across the market area, with the market square as the main landmark. For this reason, the market square at 1 in 5580 Tamsweg is listed as the location. The exact stall locations and any road closures for 2027 have not yet been announced. The venue should also not be confused with the Schlosspark of Tamsweger Waldweihnacht, which is a separate Advent event.

Traditional market with many stalls

Around 70 exhibitors were announced for the Kirtag 2026. An earlier description mentions a wide range of goods, long-established market traders and the enjoyment of shopping for local products. The market therefore offers not only the chance to browse, but also to meet and chat in the town centre. The figure of around 70 stalls refers specifically to the 2026 edition and is not a confirmed participant count for 2027. A named line-up of rides has also not yet been announced for the upcoming edition.

Market regulations and differing date information

The municipality of Tamsweg sets two annual Kirtage in its market regulations. The spring market falls on the fifth Monday after Easter; the autumn market on the first Monday in Advent. Under this rule, 2027 would fall on 29 November. On the other hand, the published event notice for 2026 gives 7 December as the actual date of the autumn market. This means the date differed from the general rule. Therefore, 29 November 2027 is a date derived from the official rule, not a separately announced event. A later date in December cannot be ruled out.

Tamsweg December Kirtag 2027: opening times and admission

For the last edition, 2026, the market was announced to start at 8. A reliably confirmed closing time and a full schedule for 2027 are not yet available. The calendar therefore does not show a made-up opening time. The traditional market uses public spaces in the centre and is normally accessible without a general admission ticket. Purchases, food and drinks are paid for separately. This information is provisional until the market municipality issues a new announcement. No programme featuring specific rides or performances in a festival tent has yet been announced.

Getting to Tamsweg in the Lungau

Tamsweg is in the Salzburg Lungau and can be reached by road and regional bus services. If you are travelling by public transport, you can use the central stops in Tamsweg and walk to the market square. If you are arriving by car, look out for possible road closures or limited parking in the centre. As the market may take place in late November or early December, winter road conditions are also possible. A confirmed parking arrangement for visitors to the new edition is not yet available.

Updates and other markets

The official market regulations of the municipality of Tamsweg are the basis for this date forecast. Because the previous year's date differed, the new event notice should be checked particularly carefully. If the first Monday in December is scheduled again in 2027, the date will need to be changed to 6 December. You can find more Kirtage in the Kirmestermine calendar.
