Thousands attend the 153rd saint-Martin fair in Bomal

The village of Bomal in the Luxembourg province of Belgium will host its annual Saint-Martin Fair on November 11.

This local event has evolved from a simple livestock market into the largest market in the province. Hundreds of itinerant traders will set up stalls along several kilometers of village streets to sell goods and services. The village center will be closed to vehicles to prioritize pedestrian safety during the event.

The Forum de la mobilité will operate shuttle services from the center of Barvaux and the Bomal train station to accommodate visitors. Local authorities have also established one-way traffic rules for certain parking areas to manage the expected crowds. In addition to the main market, the village will host a flea market in the Sassin hall and a traditional appearance by Saint-Nicolas in the afternoon.

The Comité des jeunes de Bomal will also organize a Saint-Glinglin night event at the football field on the preceding Tuesday evening featuring several DJs.
