Important Notice for Events

Due to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic, large-scale public and private events are prohibited in Hamburg through the end of August. Exact measures are constantly developing, so be sure to check back for updates regarding smaller and medium-sized events.
The prohibition does not apply to events that serve to maintain public security and order, provide services under public law, supply the population or provide health care for the population.
Small retail businesses and shops are operating with some restrictions. Face masks are required on public transport and in other public areas, especially when shopping and when others are nearby.

Events Shopping Sundays

Four times a year, Hamburg shops open their doors for some Sunday afternoon shopping, alongside many exciting events.

Hamburg Shopping Sundays

Up for some Sunday afternoon shopping? On four Sundays per year, Hamburg's shopping streets, passages and malls bustle with activity. Participating shops open their doors from 1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m — perfect for a shopping spree after a lazy, Sunday brunch. These festive occasions always coincide with city fairs and festivals, and are highlighted by music shows and special exhibitions.

Shops open on Sundays

By law, most shops in Hamburg are required to remain closed on Sundays. Kiosks, petrol stations, pharmacies and shops near public transportation hubs — train stations, airports, ports — are exempted and may continue sales on Sunday. The 40 shops of the Wandelhalle at Hamburg Central Station are open for 365 days a year, for instance. And of course, there is the legendary Sunday Fischmarkt where early birds can haggle over kilos of fish, vegetables and fruit until 9:30 a.m. In short, there's no need to panic over a missing carton of milk on a Sunday!
