Exciting highlights & innovations 2026
Top-class exhibition program
The exhibition area offers everything an archery enthusiast could desire—from traditional bows and modern accessories to handicrafts and clothing. Curious visitors and newcomers have the opportunity to try the sport for themselves: on the 3D archery course or in the indoor shooting range under expert guidance.
3D Bowmasters Indoor Tournament
Guests can also look forward to attractive program items in 2026. After the successful launch of a new indoor 3D tournament in 2025, there's plenty to look forward to! Under the professional leadership of the 3-D Austria Bogensport HSV Wals club, the so-called 3D Bowmasters Indoor Tournament will be held in 2026 on an area of approximately 800 square meters. The announcement has already been published at www.club3-d.com, and registration is open at any time. A truly memorable experience—not only for the participants, but also for the spectators.
NEW 2026: Medieval flair meets archery
For the first time, the archery fair will be accompanied by a small, atmospheric medieval market . In a dedicated area, visitors can immerse themselves in the world of bygone times – with costumes, handicrafts, and culinary specialties. The medieval area creates an atmospheric bridge between tradition and modern sports culture, inviting visitors to linger and enjoy themselves.
Lectures, workshops & top performances
Next year, visitors can especially look forward to top-class speakers like Urte Paulus and Henry Bodnik. These professionals will share their knowledge in practical presentations and will be available to answer questions and provide tips. The Austrian National Championships and the WA Indoor Championships will also be held again as part of the trade fair. This means the country's best archers will be there in person, and visitors can experience the excitement of the competitions up close.
