Food Market in the Circle alleys
The starting point for visitors is the Circle main square, which is suitably decorated for the festival and invites visitors to stay in the evenings with live music. On 18 September, the alleys at the Circle will be transformed into a food market. At around 30 market stalls, visitors get to know the delicacies of small producers from the region. Their sustainably produced products can be tasted and purchased on site. The owners of the businesses, most of whom will be on site during the Food Market, will provide visitors with first-hand information about their products.
