Advertising sales stand in the old town pedestrian zone

Anyone wishing to operate an advertising sales stand in the old town pedestrian zone in Munich requires a special use permit.

Description

There are five stands, which are allocated to authorised applicants on a weekly basis. There are 40 authorised traders who form a so-called rotating community. If someone leaves, the next person can move up. The waiting period is often several years.

Prerequisites

  • Main residence in the Munich S-Bahn area (MVV fare zone)
  • Activity in advertising sales for at least five years (also as a sales assistant)
  • Activity in advertising sales is an essential basis of existence

For the special use permit:

  • It is primarily about advertising and promoting products.
  • Snacks, drinks or souvenirs are not permitted.
  • The articles require a certain amount of explanation or demonstration and are therefore explained in a lecture or demonstrated in practice.
  • The items must be authorised by the district administration department. A product range of around 130 items is currently authorised for sale.

  • informal letter
