Start of the Rendsburg Fairs
Rendsburg boasts a long fair tradition with four markets per year – the Spring Market in April marks the start of the season, followed by the Summer Market (July), Autumn Fest (August), and the main Autumn Market in September. The organizer is Rendsburg Tourismus + Marketing GmbH, whose market master Tobias Hercher selects the showmen.
The Rides 2026
The 2026 edition once again brings the central showman highlights to the square:
- Europa-Rad – the 38-meter-high Ferris wheel offering views over Rendsburg
- Break Dancer – high-speed ride
- Mach 1 and X-Flight – adrenaline attractions
- New for 2026: 9D Action Cinema and Haunted House
- For children: Jungle Express, carousel horses, chain carousel
- Classic stalls: shooting galleries, lottery stalls, skill games
Generations of Showmen
A characteristic of the Rendsburg fairs is the close connection with showman families, some of whom have been running their businesses for several generations and have been guests in Rendsburg for decades. This continuity gives the markets their specific character – less of an anonymous large event and more of a family reunion with the square and its regular visitors.
Rendsburg-Eckernförde District
With around 28,000 inhabitants, Rendsburg is the district town of the Rendsburg-Eckernförde district in the state of Schleswig-Holstein and one of Northern Germany's most important transport hubs – at the intersection of the Kiel Canal, the A7 motorway, and the Hamburg–Kiel/Flensburg railway line. The fair serves an catchment area far beyond the city.

The 2026 Edition
The 2026 season kicks off in Rendsburg with the Spring Market. The date, April 10th to 13th, is confirmed by the showman magazine Jahrmarkt-Nord and Rendsburg Tourismus + Marketing GmbH. Among the highlights are two new attractions alongside the classics: 9D Action Cinema and Haunted House.
The Summer Season at a Glance
Following the Spring Market, three more fairs are scheduled in 2026:
- Summer Market: July 3–6, 2026
- Autumn Fest: August 28–30, 2026
- Autumn Market: September 25–28, 2026
This ensures Willy-Brandt-Platz remains a central venue for Northern German fair tradition throughout the season.
