6 to 8 September: 12th Tractor and Classic Car Meeting
If you like old agricultural machinery, cars, and motorbikes, then set aside the weekend from 6 to 8 September. That's when the 12th Tractor and Classic Car Meeting will be taking place, with participants from Austria, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, the Netherlands, and Belgium. An experience packed with nostalgia!

7 to 29 September: Kunst am Berg
Culture buffs can find their inspiration from 7 to 29 September. Not just anywhere, but high up on the Schönjoch ridge at 2,436 metres above sea level. At the unique event Kunst am Berg, artists create their works live before the very eyes of the spectators. The completed pieces can then be viewed until 13 October, along with other exhibitions by amateur artists, against the backdrop of the mountain scenery high above Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis.

21 September: Almabtrieb – the summer retreat is over for the cows
The Almabtrieb in Fiss has a long tradition. This year, the colourfully decorated cows will return to the valley from the alpine pastures on 21 September. The Almabtrieb will be accompanied by the Fiss brass band. And as befits a mountain village, it will be duly celebrated.

2 to 18 October: Golden Fine Arts Festival
The Golden Fine Arts Festival will take place on nine dates between 2 and 18 October in Serfaus and Fiss. The three weeks of enjoyment offer an enticing, unique combination of culinary specialities, art, and good music. There will be plenty of live bands playing – from the brass band to the jazz band – to ensure a great mood. The culinary delights taste twice as good here!

4 to 6 October: Finest Culinary Fiss
In the mountains high above the Upper Inntal valley in Tyrol, October gets off to a very tasty start – with the Finest Culinary event featuring restaurateurs from Fiss.

Relaxing on sun loungers, guests and locals can listen to chilled music together and enjoy culinary delicacies and exceptional drinks. Cheers!

6 October: an Oktoberfest far from the city fairground
It's not just Munich that has its own Oktoberfest, but also the Lassida mountain restaurant high above Serfaus. On 6 October, real Oktoberfest beer, good music, and fine culinary specialities will be on offer at 2,350 metres above sea level.

9 to 11 October: kidsMANIA Movement Tour
The younger guests in Serfaus-Fiss-Ladis can also look forward to their own Culinary Autumn in the Tyrolean mountains.

Throughout the autumn: honey, honey, honey
