Dannenberger Spring Market 2026

Season Kick-off in Dannenberg

The Dannenberger Spring Market marks the season's opening for Dannenberg's city center: the first Sunday opening of the year. The Werbegemeinschaft Dannenberg organizes the market annually around Easter. In 2026, it will take place on Sunday, March 22, from 12 PM to 5 PM in Dannenberg's city center.

Spring and Easter

The market combines two themes: Spring as a natural new beginning and Easter as a central spring festival. Stalls will present seasonal offerings accordingly — flowers, spring decorations, Easter eggs, sweets, and Easter crafts. Cafés and restaurants will also entice visitors with special offers.

Sunday Opening Shops

In parallel with the market, Dannenberg's shops will open their doors on Sunday — a rarity in Germany, which traditionally marks the start of the season in Dannenberg. Boutiques, bookstores, fashion stores, and specialty retailers will use the day for spring collections and special sales promotions.

2026 Program

The exact program for 2026 will be published by the Werbegemeinschaft in spring. The structure follows the proven key points of previous years:

• 12 PM: Market opening in the city center
• Afternoon: Market activities with stage program, family events
• Shops open: 1 PM to 6 PM
• 5 PM: Market end

Popular attractions for families include Easter Bunny activities, craft workshops for children, and spring flower tastings.
