🕐 Start times — when it starts

2 of the 3 parades in the canton of Aargau move off at 17:30 — Küttigen not until 18:00. The start time rarely appears in a calendar and almost always only on the association's own page; here each one stands as the organiser published it, with the assembly beforehand where it is named.

Baden

Start: 17:30–19:00

Küttigen

Start: 18:00–18:45

Wettingen

Start: 17:30

🏘️ 3 municipalities with organiser and date

No two of the 3 municipalities in the canton of Aargau share the same date — each keeps its own calendar. For 3 of them we keep a page of their own: route, turnip sale and weather rule.

📍 Assembly points and destinations

Star marches have several assembly points and a single destination — stand at the wrong one and you spend the evening chasing the band. Every published point is therefore listed separately.

🎒 Food and weather — what the societies announce

Punch and sausages at the finish, registration for turnip carving, and above all: does the society set off in the rain anyway? That is the question a family evening hangs on, and it appears on no aggregator page.
