About the event (2027 edition)
The Veiner Nessmoort (Vianden Nut Market) fills the medieval old town of Vianden with walnut-based products every October. Since 1970, producers have offered walnut liqueur, brandy, cakes, cheese, oil and honey along the cobbled streets below the castle. The market is as much a harvest festival as a shopping event: music, demonstrations and guided walks through the walnut groves round out the day. Vianden's castle, perched above the Our valley, provides the backdrop. The market typically runs on a single Sunday in mid-October and draws visitors from Luxembourg, Germany and Belgium.
The next Veiner Nëssmoort, Vianden's nut market, is announced for Sunday 10 October 2027 in the medieval old town; the organiser adds that further information will follow. Organised by the Veiner Nëssmoort asbl, a partnership of local associations and businesses, the market is held every year on the second Sunday of October and draws up to 20,000 visitors. First held in 1935, it paused during the Second World War and from 1952 to 1969. Stalls offer nut specialities, with DJs and bands in the streets.
