Freiburg's top 10 events

Every year in November, tens of thousands of people are drawn to Freiburg's most important gourmet trade fair: 
For three days, you can taste your way through more than 300 exhibitors at the Plaza Culinaria at Messe Freiburg, ranging from beer and wine to chocolate, tea and coffee, Black Forest specialities and vegan products. Since 2024, the trade fair has also been open late into the night at Plaza Late Night.

Mundologia is the Spanish word for world knowledge - and this is exactly what Freiburg photojournalist Tobias Hauser and underwater photographer David Hettich want to convey with their festival of the same name. 
Since 2004, it has developed into the largest lecture festival in the world; photographers and journalists, mountaineers and world travellers report on their adventures for four days in front of a good 20,000 visitors. Parallel to the lectures, there is a travelling and photography fair on three floors of the Konzerthaus (concert hall) in Freiburg.
