Edition 2025 — Karlsruher Herbstmess
The 285th Karlsruher Herbstmess 2025 ran from October 29 to November 10, 2025 — 13 days of Kirmes at the Messplatz on Durlacher Allee. Around 90 rides and stalls, a Halloween opening day with a costume contest, Family Day, and a self-financed finale fireworks display by the showmen's association marked the edition.
285th Herbstmess 2025
The Herbstmess 2025 ran for 13 days from October 29 to November 10. It opened on October 31 with a Halloween Day including a costume competition and keg tapping. The traditional Family Day took place on November 6, and the finale fireworks on November 10 at 8:00 PM.
In 2025, some prices were slightly increased — a response to rising energy and operating costs for the showmen. Free entry to the fairground remained as always. The fireworks were financed entirely by the Karlsruhe Showmen's Association for the first time due to the discontinuation of municipal funding.
