The Outdoor Fair is a local favourite in Dusseldorf and becoming well known further afield.June is possibly the best time to visit Dusseldorf with the family, and locals will fill you in on the secret: in the middle of July the usually quiet city steps into the limelight for a full-fledged fun summer party. The 9 day 42 acre fun fair is over 110 years old and is still going strong.
Featuring an amusement park built right over the Rhine, lots of local cuisine and an enticing choice of 250 pubs in Dusseldorf‘s Old Town nearby, its state of the art roller coasters, rides, 3,000 marchers and performances that keep tourists coming back for more, the biggest Fun Fair on the Rhine is a must-visit for any tourist on German grounds. The event is known to draw in over 400,000 people, local and tourist, per day. Old meets young in Dusseldorf’s delight of the senses. The fair goes from dusk to dawn, with something to do for absolutely any age. The temporary park is so well-done that it manages to outdo even permanent ones.
