Münster: Send Fun Fair (Summer)

Send in Münster is the largest Volksfest in the Münsterland, held three times yearly—spring, summer, and autumn—on the Schlossplatz, attracting up to a million visitors with around 200 fairground rides, traditional carousels, bumper cars, and culinary stalls. The festival blends historic market tradition with modern fun, including fireworks, family days, discounts, and lively entertainment for all ages. The word Send comes from medieval church synods and evolved into this vibrant fairground celebration that fills the castle square with color, music, and spirited atmosphere seasonally.
