Autumn is arriving in Stuttgart, and so is one of the Stuttgart military community’s most anticipated events: the Fall Bazaar 2025. Starting tomorrow through the end of the weekend, Panzer Kaserne will host a festive marketplace teeming with vendors from across Europe, ready to offer treasures, treats, and seasonal flair.
A Three-Day Shopping Extravaganza
The Fall Bazaar kicks off on Friday, Sept. 26, and runs from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. On Sunday, the event wraps up a bit earlier at 4 p.m. Conveniently located at the Panzer Parade Field and Panzer Fitness Center, the venue provides ample space for browsing, mingling, and discovering something new.
Vendors From Across Europe
One of the main benefits of the Fall Bazaar for shoppers is the chance to browse items from vendors from around Europe. Attendees have access to a rich and eclectic mix of goods from the convenience of USAG Stuttgart’s very own backyard.
Browse hand-woven rugs and vibrant ceramics from Turkey, Italian leather handbags and shoes, and Polish pottery perfect for everyday use or gifting. Jewelers will showcase everything from delicate Baltic amber pieces to bold statement designs, while food vendors will take care of foodies with Belgian chocolates, French cheeses, and artisanal jams. Seasonal décor and hand-crafted holiday ornaments round out the offerings, ensuring there’s something unique for every taste and budget.
Food, Community & Convenience
Fuel your shopping with food and beverages from Private Organizations and Soldier & Family Readiness Groups.
Why Attend?
Beyond shopping, the Fall Bazaar is a chance to connect with the community, celebrate local and European craftsmanship, and kick off the fall season in style. For newcomers, it’s an ideal way to explore what the community has to offer all in one place. Returning visitors will relish the chance to stroll familiar aisles and discover new vendors.
