Town Festival on the Second Sunday of September

The Havixbecker September is one of three town festivals with Sunday shopping in the Münsterland municipality of Havixbeck and traditionally falls on the 2nd Sunday in September. In 2026, this is Sunday, September 13, from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM. The main street and adjacent areas will become a festival zone – with local retail, club stands, gastronomy, and an action program that attracts families from the Münsterland with short travel times.

Sunday Shopping – The Anchor

The central draw for the date: the Sunday shopping event. Havixbeck retailers will open their doors from 1:00 PM to 6:00 PM, often with small promotions, special offers, and outdoor stands. Marketing-Havixbeck coordinates the event – the same association that organizes the other Sunday shopping events (Spring Festival, Christmas Market).

Program Elements

Local Retailers with outdoor stands and special offers
Club Stands – Havixbeck clubs, schools, church communities, sports clubs
Gastronomy – several snack bars, cafés with outdoor seating, regional Münsterland specialties
Family Activities – children's program, bouncy castle, hands-on stations
Potential Live Music – acoustic acts or club music on a small stage

Havixbeck – At the Foot of the Baumberge Hills

Havixbeck is a Münsterland municipality with around 11,500 inhabitants in the Coesfeld district, about 15 km west of Münster. Its location at the foot of the Baumberge hills (a gentle hill range in the Münsterland) gives the municipality scenic appeal. Tourist attractions:

Burg Hülshoff – Birthplace of the poet Annette von Droste-Hülshoff. Today it's a Center for Literature with a museum and garden.
Burg Havixbeck – one of the oldest noble estates in the Münsterland
Baumberge transmitter and hiking trails

The Havixbecker September fits into a Münsterland tourism context that combines literature, castles, landscape, and town festival tradition.

Marketing-Havixbeck

The organizer is Marketing-Havixbeck, the municipality's communal marketing initiative. Three Sunday shopping events spread throughout the year – Spring, September, Christmas – form the backbone of the town festival activities. Havixbeck business people, local clubs, and the municipal administration are involved.
