Rhine funfair in Düsseldorf
From July 11 to 20, 2025, more than 300 showmen from Germany and abroad presented a wide selection of rides, guaranteeing fun for the whole family. With the largest funfair on the Rhine, the more than 700-year-old St. Sebastianus Schützenverein (St. Sebastianus Shooting Club) with its more than 1,500 marksmen celebrated the name day of its patron saint, St. Apollinaris (July 23). This year, Germany's largest drone show lit up the sky over Düsseldorf for the first time. Next year, the fair will take place from July 17 to 26, 2026.
