Instead of Pützchens Markt Current fun fair spots in the city centre of Bonn

Bonn · Pützchens Markt is cancelled this year. Instead, showmen are allowed to set up their merry-go-rounds and booths in Bonn and Beuel. However, the distance makes it difficult for visitors to use the attractions. Our map is here to help.

The fairground atmosphere on a small scale is to be created by the showmen in the city centre and on the banks of the Rhine in Beuel. On the Münsterplatz a children's carousel attracts visitors.

For showmen and visitors it is only a small consolation, but at least because Pützchen's Markt is cancelled this year due to the Corona pandemic, rides and fairground booths are already allowed to open during the summer holidays. All over the city centre, some exhibitors have taken up the city's offer.

Until the end of the NRW summer holidays on 11 August, visitors can visit the "Kirmes auf Abstand" in the city centre of Bonn and on the banks of the Rhine in Beuel. According to their own statements, the city is pursuing two goals: The struggling showmen should be able to make up at least part of their lost income and Bonners should at least be able to breathe some fairground air.

But the distance also makes it harder than usual for visitors and showmen to find each other. On the following map we have thus shown the locations of the carousels and stalls:

The city has also already announced that it will extend its offer to the showmen until September. For the time being, the wish and hope remains that as many people as possible take advantage of the offer.

The 653rd edition of Pützchens Markt should have actually taken place from 11th to 15th September. However, even before a federal decree prohibiting major events into the autumn, the city had decided to do without a large fair in its usual shape this year.
