The big funfair city will be erected in 2023 from 14 to 23 July on its traditional, picturesque site, on the Oberkassel Rheinwiesen. These meadows, which have an area of 165,000 sqm, will provide space for stallholders from both Germany and abroad, and a wide range of rides, guaranteeing fun for all the family.

Dating back more than 700 years and still going strong, Düsseldorf's St. Sebastianus shooting club boasts more than 1,500 members. With the biggest fun fair on the Rhine the club will be celebrating the day of its patron saint, St. Apollinaris (23 July). As part of the event, the "Historic Procession" on 16 July is a spectacle to behold, as more than 3,000 uniformed shooters, marching bands wind their way through the streets in what is one of Germany's largest parades.

Similar to Düsseldorf's Karneval, Christmas Markets, and Japan Day, you can expect the Kirmes to be packed with people, so make sure you come prepared.

There is certainly no lack of rides at the Rheinkirmes. You'll have your choice between heart-thumping drop towers or merry-go- rounds. There are rides for young children and rides for the daredevils. There are fun houses and terrifying horror houses. Regardless of what tickles your fancy, there will be a ride for you here at the Kirmes.

Similar to Japan Day in Düsseldorf, the Rheinkirmes celebrates another successful year by lighting off some super fireworks to end the last Friday evening of the funfair. Even if you're not at the funfair to enjoy the fireworks, you'll be able to grab a spot anywhere along the Rheinpromenade to enjoy the spectacular evening show.
