Weiz – Weizer Osterirdi-Kirtag 2027
What to expect
Weizer Osterirdi-Kirtag 2027 is expected to take place on Tuesday, 30 March 2027, on Hauptplatz in Weiz, following the traditional Easter Tuesday schedule. Here you can find the key information for your visit.
Weizer Osterirdi-Kirtag 2027: date after Easter
The Osterirdi-Kirtag is one of Weiz's traditional spring fairs. Its name refers to Easter Tuesday, the Tuesday immediately after Easter Sunday and Easter Monday. Easter falls on Sunday, 28 March in 2027, so Tuesday, 30 March 2027 is the expected date of the fair. The city has not yet announced the exact date of the 2027 edition separately. The annual tradition of holding the market on Easter Tuesday is evidenced, among other things, by the dates of 2025 and 2026.
Market stalls on Hauptplatz in Weiz
The market takes place in Weiz city centre on Hauptplatz. You can browse typical fair goods among the market stalls and combine your visit with a walk around the centre. Various shops and places to eat and drink are also nearby, although their opening hours may vary on that particular Tuesday. Registration for individual market stalls and the precise layout for March 2027 have not yet been published. The calendar therefore lists only the central market address, not a supposedly definitive stall layout.
Weizer Osterirdi-Kirtag 2027: Easter customs and goods
In Styria, religious seasons and traditional market days are often closely linked. That is why this fair takes place immediately after the Easter weekend. At previous editions, everyday goods such as clothing, household items and other typical merchandise were the main focus. The market is a good place to browse and enjoy a leisurely stroll. However, there is no public confirmation yet of which individual products and vendors will be represented in 2027. For this reason, no specific traders or supposedly complete line-up of stalls are listed here.
Do not confuse it with the Easter Monday market at Weizberg
There are several Easter events with similar names in the region. A parish notice explicitly distinguished between a separate Osterirta-Kirta at Weizberg on Easter Monday and the market traditionally held on Easter Tuesday on Weiz's Hauptplatz. This event refers exclusively to the Weiz Easter Tuesday market. The venue remains Hauptplatz in the city centre. This distinction matters so that calendar users do not accidentally go to the basilica instead of the actual market square.
Opening hours, admission and rides
Opening hours are provisional, as of 2026: the city's information for the 2026 edition gives a daily market period, which has been included in the MEC schedule as a guide. The confirmed opening hours for 2027 have not yet been published separately. No general admission price has been expressly confirmed either. If you want to buy goods or food, you pay at each stall. No rides with named operators have currently been confirmed for the 2027 edition. Therefore, no supposed showmen are listed without up-to-date evidence.
Getting there and official information
Weiz's Hauptplatz is centrally located and easy to use as a destination address. You can also combine your market day with other activities in the city centre. If you are coming by car, please check for possible access restrictions and currently available parking. For public transport, it is worth checking regional connections. You can find more spring markets in our funfair calendar. The Stadtgemeinde Weiz publishes official new market dates as soon as they are available.
