Pferdemarkt hosts Speed-Dating for the first time
200,000 visitors are expected at this year’s Pferdemarkt, and among them will be thousands of singles. Does it have to stay that way?
In the 1950s, the main market square was temporarily called the “Marriage Market”. An interesting focus? Back then, it was also about meeting (again) single people for a possible future together.
If you like a large audience, you can turn the Pferdemarkt into a grand wedding party. This last happened with three couples at once in 2017. Your wedding as an official highlight of the Pferdemarkt 2026?
If you don’t have a partner for marriage yet, take part in the Speed-Dating on September 6 (Saturday) at 3pm in the “Schifferzelt”.
