Review
All important information

  • Just be there on time! The sales areas stretched across the southern and northern Kronenplatz. Registration was not required, space was allocated on a first-come, first-served basis and no stand fees were charged. 

    In the designated areas, you could individually design your own sales area, for example with a picnic blanket, chairs and a table. Larger structures were not permitted.

  • The sales areas on Kronenplatz could be set up between 10:00 and 12:00.

    Due to the space available, it was recommended that visitors use public transport, cycle or walk to Kronenplatz. If it was necessary to use a car, it was pointed out that direct access to the sales areas on Kronenplatz was not possible.

    Only marked areas on Kronenstraße could be used for loading and unloading, as indicated by the organizer on site. For this purpose, Kronenplatz could be approached via Zähringerstraße (coming from Adlerstraße), while the exit had to be via Kronenstraße in the direction of Zirkel. From previous experience at the last flea markets, it was pointed out that considerable waiting times were to be expected.

    Parking was available, for example, in the Kronenplatz parking garage at Fritz-Erler-Straße 7-11 or in the surrounding streets.

    The sales areas had to be dismantled from 17:00 until 19:00 at the latest. The above conditions applied.

  • The following were open intro CAFÉ in the TRIANGEL building on Kaiserstraße and the Café Wohnzimmer on the corner of Zähringerstrasse and Kronestrasse.

  • As part of its bicentenary celebrations and the upcoming Science Week the exhibition "CORNER" daily from 10:00 to 17:00, while the TRIANGEL on Sunday from 18:00 to 20:00 for thelate-night show "STULLE - scientifically proven" invited.
