In mid-June, the historic Mariahilfplatz will host the Munich bicycle fair Radl-Dult for the third time. Private individuals and commercial organizations can now officially reserve trading spots to become part of the large-scale bicycle flea market in the heart of the Au district.
On Sunday, June 14, 2026, the usual appearance of the square will completely change. From 10:00 to 17:00, the space will transform into a massive venue for meetings of like-minded people, professional athletes, and those simply looking for a reliable means of transport. According to the Munich administration, the central event of the day will be the largest themed market, where anyone can put up for sale both used and brand-new bicycles, as well as any related accessories — from vintage bells to modern gear. A pleasant bonus for all guests will be free admission to the event territory.
Conditions for booking spots at Mariahilfplatz
For those planning to clear space in their garage or update their store’s inventory, online registration is already open. City authorities have provided different conditions for participants: for private sellers wishing to find a good home for their old bicycle, booking a trading spot is absolutely free. Commercial suppliers and specialized stores are required to pay the relevant fees established by municipal and legal regulations.
It is important to remember the strict timeframes: the acceptance of applications from entrepreneurs concludes as early as May 11. Private individuals have a bit more time — registration for them will last until June 6. However, organizers warn that the number of available plots at Mariahilfplatz is strictly limited, so it is not worth delaying the submission of an application — spots are usually taken long before the deadline.
Drive, music, and gastronomy in the Au district
The Radl-Dult fair has long outgrown the format of an ordinary market and turned into a full-fledged city festival. In addition to searching for profitable deals, visitors can expect a rich entertainment program capable of engaging even those far from cycling. Spectacular shows by BMX masters demonstrating breathtaking stunts are planned on the square, along with a special bicycle loop for testing equipment in action.
The festive atmosphere will be complemented by performances from musical groups with live sound, and a variety of food trucks with street food for every taste will await hungry guests. For those interested in technical innovations or road safety issues, information stands from leading expert communities will be operating.
