Tones of autumn Event series in September & October 2026

Autumn stands for change, for the transition from the abundance of summer to the calm of winter. The days are getting shorter and, after the hot summer months, the air is already pleasantly crisp. Nature and Zell am See-Kaprun display once more a colourful spectacle full of life when exciting new events celebrate this time of year in all its facets. From culinary highlights, such as the game week, to the family festival and guided hikes - autumn in Zell am See-Kaprun promises unforgettable experiences.

Zeller Wiesn & Game Week at Sportresort Alpenblick

Coming together to celebrate: the Alpenblick sports resort in Zell am See invites from 2 to 4 October 2026 exclusively to the big Zeller Wiesn (Zell Oktoberfest). Here, modernity and tradition come together and promise a glittering celebration! And as there is no festival without a feast, the Venison Days culinary programme from 9 to 31 October 2026 is all about the bounty of the forest, and how to bring these treasures to the plate in a sophisticated way!

Tip: A direct train service between Munich central station and Zell am See train station makes travelling from the original Munich Wiesn (Oktoberfest in Munich) to the Zell Wiesn a comfortable 2.5-hour journey.
