Cologne: Sunday shopping and city festival on the same day
Many of the shopping Sundays in Cologne are related to various city and Veedel festivals. Therefore, there are also defined areas which shops are allowed to open on Sundays when they are open for business. The best example: Sunday shopping on September 4th in Sülz and Klettenberg. The framework for the campaign is the Carrée-Fest, which is a “well-known and attractive event beyond the borders of Cologne”, explains the city. Up to 150,000 visitors are expected.
“As with the street festival in Deutz, this festival is also in the public interest and, from the point of view of the administration, suffices as a justification for opening a sales outlet in accordance with Section 6 Paragraph 1 Clause 2 No. 1 LÖG NRW,” explains the city as justification for a Sunday open shop.
