The Nuremberg Trempelmarkt as a crowd puller for the pen exchange
The Nuremberg Penshow – Fascination of Writing takes place every year on the 2nd Saturday in May alongside the Nuremberg Trempelmarkt – the largest inner-city flea market in Germany.
The temporal and thematic overlap ensures that the Penshow benefits from the large number of visitors to the Trempelmarkt. Traders can reach a particularly specific audience.
These include collectors who are already interested, who are enthusiastic about historical, old and unusual writing instruments.
This also includes spontaneously interested people who come from the Trempelmarkt, are surprised by our writing instrument event and are directly infected by the fascination.
