Weekly Markets & Farmers' Markets in Memmingen: Dates, Locations & Tips for Your Next Visit

Market Days in Memmingen: Tuesdays and Saturdays

The weekly market in Memmingen is planned for the future on two fixed mornings per week:

• Tuesday (morning)
• Saturday (morning)

This allows you to reliably plan your shopping – whether you want to prepare for the week with fresh food or stock up for the coming days at the weekend.

Opening Hours: Seasonally Regulated

For upcoming market visits, seasonal start times apply in Memmingen. Usually, two periods are distinguished:

• April 1 to October 31: 7:00–12:30
• November 1 to March 31: 7:30–12:30

If you want the widest selection and a calm atmosphere for conversations at the stalls, experience shows that a visit between 8:00 and 11:00 is ideal: Most stalls are fully set up and the selection is usually at its largest.

Locations: Market Square, Hallhof, and Schrannenplatz During Advent

Regular Location: Market Square

For the coming weeks and months, the Market Square is the usual location. Thanks to its central location, you can easily combine shopping with errands in the city center.

Alternative Location for Major Events: Hallhof

If the Market Square is occupied due to a major city center event, a relocation to Hallhof is planned for future market days. This way, the market can still take place – you just need to adjust to a different location.

Advent Season: Schrannenplatz (December 1–24)

For the period from December 1 to 24, a move to Schrannenplatz is usually planned. If you want to shop during Advent, it's worth planning your route directly there.

Holidays: What Happens If a Market Day Is Canceled?

So you can plan around holidays, clear relocation rules apply for future cases in Memmingen:

• If Tuesday falls on a public holiday: Move to Wednesday.
• If Saturday falls on a public holiday: Move forward to the Friday before.

Important: In additional special situations (e.g., safety requirements or short-term city center closures), supplementary notices from the city may be decisive. If in doubt, check the latest announcements before your visit.

Assortment: What You Can Typically Find in the Future

The range at weekly and farmers' markets is seasonal – that's exactly what makes it so appealing. For upcoming dates, you can typically expect the following product groups in Memmingen:

• Fruit & Vegetables (seasonal, often regionally grown)
• Baked Goods (bread, rolls, sweet pastries)
• Eggs & Pasta
• Cheese and Sausage Specialties
• Fish or Poultry (depending on stall)
• Herbs & Spices (fresh or dried)
• Honey, Jams & Delicacies
• Flowers & Plants (especially in spring and before seasonal occasions)

If you want to shop specifically, a short list helps (e.g., "vegetables for 3 days," "bread," "cheese"). If you prefer to stroll, plan some time for tasting and asking questions – many vendors are happy to explain which products are currently in season and how to use them.

Practical Tips for Your Next Market Visit

• Bring bags or a basket: This makes transport easier and reduces packaging.
• Plan for cash: Card payment is not guaranteed at every stall.
• If you want "the best selection": come earlier in the morning; if you want to shop cheaper "just before closing," a later visit may be worthwhile (no guarantee).
• For a relaxed process: combine shopping with a fixed route (e.g., first fruit/vegetables, then bread/baked goods, finally delicate products).

Note on Currentness

Market locations and details may change due to permits, events, or organizational decisions. The publications of the city of Memmingen are decisive for the most up-to-date information.
