About Speyer Spring Market

The Speyer Spring Market is a comparatively young format — the 3rd edition in 2026 shows that the concept has taken root in the cathedral city. On the weekend of April 25th and 26th, 2026, Maximilianstraße — the central shopping axis between Altpörtel and the Cathedral — will transform into a garden and spring market with around 64 exhibitors. The offer is diverse: plants of all kinds (orchids, hydrangeas, perennials, bonsai), outdoor furniture and garden decoration, sculptures, aquatic plants, and pond accessories, grills, and garden tools. The market opens on Saturday at 11 am as part of the Zunftbaumfest (Guild Tree Festival), and Sunday, April 26th, is also a Sunday with open shops in Speyer's city center from 1 pm to 6 pm. The market was formerly known as the Garden and Plant Market and was relaunched as the Spring Market in 2024.

From Garden and Plant Market to Spring Market

The Speyer Spring Market is the evolution of the former Garden and Plant Market. Since 2024, it has been running under a new name and with an expanded concept — the 3rd edition in 2026 shows that the format is gaining popularity. Maximilianstraße is an ideal venue: central shopping axis, within walking distance of the train station, well-frequented.

Around 64 Exhibitors

The offer focuses on plants, gardens, and the outdoor lifestyle. Plant vendors display orchids, hydrangeas, perennials, bonsai, herbs, and potted plants. Outdoor furniture dealers present lounge furniture, classics, and designer pieces. Aquatic plant specialists showcase water plants, pond systems, and filter systems. In addition, there are sculptures made of stone, bronze, and Corten steel, grills, smokers, and outdoor kitchens, as well as garden decorations.

Opening Zunftbaumfest on Saturday

The Spring Market opens on Saturday, April 25th, 2026, from 11 am as part of the Zunftbaumfest (Guild Tree Festival) — a traditional event of the Speyer guilds and craftsmen. The Zunftbaumfest provides a festive start to the Spring Market and connects it with the local craft and small business tradition.

Sunday Opening Hours

Sunday, April 26th, 2026, is also a Sunday with open shops in Speyer's city center. From 1 pm to 6 pm, the shops between Altpörtel and the Cathedral will open, while the Spring Market runs all day. This combination — market and city center shopping — regularly attracts a large audience from Speyer and the surrounding area.
