Flea Markets in Coburg: Schlossplatz and Districts

In Coburg itself, there is no year-round, weekly recurring flea market series. Instead, individual special and district markets shape the year.

Schlossplatz Coburg

The Schlossplatz is the stage for special outdoor markets. For 2026, dates will be published in the city's event calendar. Seasonal events with flea market elements are planned, focusing on bric-a-brac, books, and everyday items.

Note: Dates may be adjusted due to weather or events. Short-term updates are made in the official announcements.

Weidach bei Coburg – District/Club Flea Market

In the parking lot at the sports center (Neuseser Weg 21, 96479 Weitramsdorf), an afternoon district flea market is expected again in 2026. Details on registration deadlines, stand fees, and setup rules will be published by the organizer in advance.

Character: many private stands from the neighborhood – from children's room finds to regional handicrafts.

What to Expect: Bric-a-brac, Treasures, and Stories

There is more structure between boxes and clothes racks than it seems at first glance – and a clear trend: passing things on instead of throwing them away.

Typical Flea Market Finds

  • Household goods and kitchen utensils – from enamel pots to coffee grinders
  • Porcelain, glasses, and ceramics from older series
  • Records, CDs, DVDs, and older technology
  • Toys, board games, model cars, and figurines
  • Vintage decor, picture frames, lamps, and small furniture
  • Collectibles such as coins, postcards, or comics

Sustainability

Flea markets extend product life cycles, conserve resources, and reduce waste. In the Coburg region, sustainability thus becomes practical – for sellers who declutter and buyers who buy used instead of new.

Tips for Visitors

The Best Time: Come Early or Bargain Late

  • Early: At the beginning, the selection is largest – ideal for rarities.
  • Late: Towards the end, willingness to negotiate often increases.

Practical Preparation

  • Cash: Many stands are cash-only. Bring coins and small bills.
  • Bags/Backpack: Reusable bags make transport easier.
  • Look closely: Check condition, test if necessary; include small defects in price negotiations.

Tips for Exhibitors

Stand Booking, Fees, and Preparation

  • Registration and fees are announced in advance by the respective organizer.
  • Strictly observe setup times (often starting in the morning).
  • Bring: tablecloth, price tags, tape, clean presentation boxes, change.

Prices, Negotiation, and Fairness

Realistic prices and transparent information about the condition build trust. Friendly negotiation usually leads to a sale faster – both sides benefit.

Arrival and Service Information

  • Public transport and parking: Depending on the venue, parking is available at or near the hall; arrival by public transport is possible depending on the line. Current information can be found in the event info.
  • Accessibility: Halls often offer ground-level access. Details vary by location; if in doubt, ask the organizer in advance.
  • Weather: Indoor markets are weather-independent; for outdoor areas (e.g. Schlossplatz) check short-term info.
