Theme Days

Experience our colourful stage programme for Senior Citizens' Day. It's going to be lively again - with the LineDancers, among others, who will get you dancing. The Active Seniors and a yodeller will also get the hall in the mood. It won't be boring here...

The Animal Theme Day on the Tuesday of the fair is dedicated specifically to the animals at the fair - a special opportunity for all those who want to delve even deeper into the world of animals.

You can also bring your favourite dog to the fair. Please do not forget to bring a valid vaccination card.

Our popular collector's item - the iconic shopping bag for our trade fair - will be available at the entrance while stocks last.

This day is all about the skilled trades. In Hall 5, you can look forward to great activities to mark the 25th anniversary of the mitteldeutsche handwerksmesse - including a raffle with great prizes from our exhibitors and Leipziger Messe, a campaign to celebrate the 60th birthday of the Messemännchen and a coloring activity for the little ones. You can also listen to exciting presentations on craft-related topics on our stage in Hall 5.

At the start of the winter holidays, there will be a varied programme, exciting hands-on activities and numerous surprises for our youngest visitors at the trade fair. In addition to interactive stations in the exhibition halls, a fun puppet theatre, a colourful magic show and our mascot meeting with well-known characters such as Bulli, Poldi and our little fair man await you on stage.
