About Sickingenmesse

The Sickingenmesse Landstuhl is the traditional spring fair of the Sickingenstadt at the foot of Nanstein Castle. For two days, more than 50 exhibitors from trade, crafts, and services will present their products on Lothar-Sander-Platz and in the Stadthalle. In parallel, a large street food festival will transform the city center into a culinary stage with international specialties and Palatinate classics. The Sunday shopping event also brings the shops of the Landstuhl retail trade into play and attracts visitors from all over the Westpfalz region to the city. The organizers are the Fördergemeinschaft Sickingenstadt Landstuhl and the Werbering Ramstein.

The Sickingenmesse Landstuhl will take place in its 39th edition in 2026 on April 18th and 19th, and is one of the most important spring events in the Sickingenstadt. On the central Lothar-Sander-Platz and in the adjacent Stadthalle, more than 50 exhibitors from trade, crafts, construction, services, and lifestyle will present their products and offers.

Fair with a Regional Profile

The spectrum ranges from heating, plumbing, and gardening to kitchens, furniture, fashion, and jewelry, as well as travel agencies, insurance companies, and regional direct marketers. The Sickingenmesse is a classic consumer fair with a consulting focus, primarily involving medium-sized businesses from the Sickingenstadt and the entire Westpfalz region.

Street Food Festival

Parallel to the fair, a Street Food Festival transforms the central area around Lothar-Sander-Platz into a culinary stage. Food trucks and stands offer international specialties – from Asian bowls and South American BBQ classics to European favorites like Flammkuchen, Bratwurst, and crepes. Vegetarian and vegan options are also available.

Sunday Shopping

On Sunday, the shops in the Landstuhl city center will open their doors from 1 PM to 6 PM. The Sunday shopping event is an important footfall day for the city center and is accompanied by a supporting program of live music, activities for children, and special sales.

Sickingenstadt Landstuhl

Since being granted the title in 1998, Landstuhl has officially carried the epithet "Sickingenstadt" – in memory of the imperial knight Franz von Sickingen, who made Nanstein Castle his headquarters in the 16th century. The fair embraces this identity, linking the regional economy with the historical self-image of the city.
