Stoppelmarkt Vechta

In the location's words:

Stoppelmarkt lovers have no other plans in mid-August. They don't go on vacation because then they miss out on the best things at home. They don't plan a birthday party because nobody would come anyway. And they curse friends and relatives who invite them to their wedding during the Stoppelmarkt days. In short: for them, there is no equivalent alternative to the Stoppelmarkt. Company bosses know this and close their businesses on the traditional Stoppelmarkt Monday. School is out everywhere in Vechta on this day.

This identification with the Stoppelmarkt runs through all age groups - from grandchildren to grandmothers. Because the fair has a lot to offer for everyone. That's why many loyal visitors from the region and abroad have come to love the Stoppelmarkt. And native Vechta residents who have left their home for work or family reasons return three times a year: at Easter, Christmas and Stoppelmarkt. If you don't know what the Stoppelmarkt feels like yet, you should experience it.
