Trade Fair and Club Showcase

The Gellersen Messe is more than just a trade fair. It combines the presentation of local businesses with a club showcase, making the entire social diversity of the municipality visible. Companies present their products and services, craft businesses demonstrate their work, clubs recruit new members, social organizations provide information about their offerings, and the municipal administration offers citizen information. This mix makes the fair a meeting point for the entire population of the five member communities.

Supporting Program and Family Activities

In addition to the stands, the fair offers a supporting program with demonstrations — craft demonstrations, show acts by sports clubs, dance performances, live music. Families will find a dedicated children's program with a bouncy castle, craft activities, hands-on stations, and occasional performances by kindergarten children and school choirs. Catering is organized through several stands — bratwurst, cake, coffee, vegetarian specialties.

Gellersenhalle Reppenstedt

The venue is the Gellersenhalle in Reppenstedt — the central hall of the Gellersen municipality. The spacious hall with outdoor areas offers ample space for stands, a stage, catering, and visitor areas. Reppenstedt itself, with around 7,000 inhabitants, is the largest community in the municipality and the seat of administration.

The Gellersen Municipality

The Gellersen municipality, west of Lüneburg, comprises the member communities of Reppenstedt, Westergellersen, Südergellersen, Kirchgellersen, and Wittorf. With a total of around 15,000 inhabitants, it is one of the most populous municipalities in the Lüneburg district. The Gellersen Messe is an important event that makes the five communities visible together and strengthens the sense of community in the municipality.

Gellersen Messe — edition 2026

The Gellersen Messe 2026 is expected to take place in May 2026 at the Gellersenhalle Reppenstedt — the exact date will be published by the Gellersen municipality and the business association in spring. The 2025 edition, held on May 10 and 11, serves as a model. Companies, craft businesses, clubs, associations, and social organizations from the five communities of the municipality will present themselves to the general public. Supporting program with demonstrations, show acts, children's program, and catering. Opening hours typically 11 AM–5 PM. Free admission.
