February 27 & 28 Antiques Market at AGRA

Every last weekend of the month the Agra Grounds transform into a giant second hand market, both indoor & outdoor. You’ll find furniture, household items, books, reclaimed (industrial) materials, DDR memorabilia etc. The market is very popular and attracts visitors from all over Saxony and beyond. Warning: may cause traffic jams, so consider cycling there or taking a tram. More info

February 28 Kawi Kids Flea Market – Kawi Kids Kinder Flohmarkt

Second-hand market, held several times a year, for every thinkable child-related item, like clothes, toys, strollers, books, bikes etcetera. At the indoor baby/toddler playground Kawi Kids in Südvorstadt, at August-Bebel-Straβe 9. More info (in German)

February 26 Fly By LIVE at Poniatowski
