For participation in the weekly markets, special markets, exhibitions, annual markets, flea markets, folk festivals and similar events of the City of Bonn, private-law fees are charged in accordance with the market tariff (Annex 1).

Insofar as different fees are charged according to the importance of the event, the classification of market events according to local importance is decisive for the allocation to the individual tariff classes (Annex 2).

Liable for payment is

2.1 for events organized by the City of Bonn, the supplier to whom the stand space has been allocated or granted;

2.2 in the case of other markets, public festivals and similar events, the organizer to whom the stand space has been allocated.

2.3 Several parties liable for payment are jointly and severally liable.

3.1 The fees for flea markets are calculated according to the front length (front meters) and the number of days used, for all other events according to the area used (square meters) and the number of days.

3.2 The frontage lengths or areas used are determined and set by the City. The feeders and organizers are obliged to provide the City with the necessary information for determining the basis of calculation.

3.3 Front meters, square meters and days are always charged in full. In the tariff area of Pützchens Markt, event days with a duration of up to eight hours shall be charged with a daily factor of 0.5. Event days with a duration of more than eight hours will be charged with a daily factor of 1.0.

3.4 At municipal flea markets, the first two meters of stalls operated by children up to and including 14 years of age are not charged.

3.5 The calculation of a flea market stall is generally based on front meters. However, if the depth of the stand is greater than the number of front meters, the longest side will be charged.

3.6 If the remaining area on the ground is less than the area resulting from the parts of a store protruding into the airspace, the area actually to be kept free for the property is decisive for the calculation of the fee.

3.7 If residents of the "Pützchens Markt" fairground operate a stand or store themselves, only 50 percent of the applicable rate shall be charged, provided that the stand area is located in front of the resident's property.

3.8 A surcharge of 50 euros will be levied for participation in addition to the tariff fee for those suppliers to the Pützchens Markt with whom no contract has yet been concluded by the start of the event.

3.9 Provided that the organizer assumes all other costs incurred, including for electricity, water, traffic signage and adequate insurance cover, the space rental fee for public festivals and similar events held by third parties on municipal squares is 5 percent to 10 percent of the normal stall fee for the stores set up there according to tariff group 2.0.0.0, depending on the local significance of the event, but at least 260 euros. If local clubs or associations organize a folk festival or a similar event serving to promote community and customs, the space rent shall amount to 2 percent to 4 percent of the normal stall fee of the stores set up there according to tariff group 2.0.0.0, depending on the local significance of the event, but at least 30 euros.

3.10 If concluded contracts are not fulfilled, the City is entitled to charge 75 percent of the agreed fee. If the stand space can be reallocated elsewhere, the amount shall be reduced by the amount of the fee achieved.

3.11 The fees under tariff number 5.0.0.1 charged by the City include statutory value-added tax; otherwise value-added tax will be charged separately.

In individual cases, the Mayor of Bonn may, at his or her discretion, waive the charging of a private-law fee in accordance with tariff no. 6.0.0.0 of the tariff regulations in whole or in part if the use requiring permission is obviously in the public interest.

The tariff regulations enter into force on January 1, 2002.
