Looking for spooky fun in the Kaiserslautern Military Community this weekend? Check out our Halloween events roundup for dozens of options across the area.
Despite the Halloween buzz, Saturday will be unusually quiet across Rheinland-Pfalz. All Saints’ Day is a “silent holiday” observed annually on Nov. 1, which means most stores will be closed Saturday and public festivals are restricted out of respect for the occasion.
Fortunately, Sunday picks up the slack, with two nearby cities hosting shopping events.
Bad Dürkheim offers a cozy street market with warm drinks and autumn snacks from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday. Shops will be open from noon to 5 p.m. Free admission.
Kusel’s Sunday shopping event includes retail hours from noon to 6 p.m., plus street food and live music. Free admission.

The Mainz Chamber Orchestra performs in Ramstein-Miesenbach at 5 p.m. Sunday. Expect a stirring program of works by Telemann, Mozart, Saint-Saëns and more. Tickets start at 15 euros.
