What about the weekly market on Domplatz?
It's unclear whether the weekly market on Domplatz will continue on the event day of the Corporate Run. For the most accurate information, it's advisable to either check with local news sources or contact Erfurt's public transportation service directly.
Sports enthusiasts should note that tram line 1 will not run, and line 2 will be diverted during the Erfurt Krämerbrückenfest, which could affect runners planning their route in Thuringia, as an alternative for public transportation might be needed from Blumenstraße to Anger/Sparkassen-Finanzzentrum via Domplatz and Fischmarkt. The status of the weekly market on Domplatz during the Corporate Run day is uncertain.
