"Hansemahl Münster"

Open air dining

2. May 2026 12:00 PM Münster

Münster Marketing and the Strong City Center Initiative (ISI) will once again transform Prinzipalmarkt into the city’s most beautiful open-air dining area on Saturday, May 2, 2026, and invite everyone to the traditional Hanseatic Feast from 12:00 PM to 6:00 PM. 

Yellow, red, and white Münster flags and blue European flags will then adorn the gabled houses on Prinzipalmarkt; a long table and lounge furniture will invite visitors to linger, and downtown merchants will serve Westphalian open-faced sandwiches. Mayor Tilman Fuchs will open the Hanseatic Feast at 12 noon.

This popular event is sure to delight visitors again this year with its familiar features. An impressive 100-meter-long table, adorned with elegant white tablecloths and colorful, regional spring flowers, stretches from the Historic Town Hall to Salzstraße. Lined up along the table, the vendors — wearing classic white Hanseatic aprons — stand ready to treat guests to a variety of delicacies with warm hospitality. 

Two stages provide the perfect musical backdrop, alternating between live music and DJ sets.
