The Culinary, Kitchen, and Enjoyment Event in the Alte Pakethallen
The Schwarzer Markt has quickly become a fixed date for enjoyment in Coburg, Bavaria. Coburg is an independent city in Upper Franconia. The venue is the Alte Pakethallen at the former goods station – an industrial charm location that lends a special atmosphere to the culinary event.
In the Pakethallen and the outdoor areas along the »Catwalk« and the Zollinger building, over 70 carefully selected exhibitors present everything related to culinary arts, cooking, and grilling: regional and international delicacies, specialties, kitchen equipment, as well as tastings of coffee, wine, beer, and spirits.
On the kitchen stage in the main hall, visitors can watch professionals at work during live shows. The »Flamme & Glut« grill arena provides smoky aromas, and upscale catering under pavilions offers enjoyable breaks. In the evenings, DJ sets create a lively atmosphere, and on Saturday, late-night shopping until midnight and a fireworks display beckon.
Each year, a prominent top chef is a guest: after Stefan Marquard (2024) and Swiss TV chef Meta Hiltebrand (2025), Michelin-starred chef, TV personality, restaurateur, and author Ralf Zacherl is the Special Guest on the show stage in 2026.
