Information for event organizers and market managers
As a specialist fabric retailer, we welcome invitations to events across Europe. Markets and events serving our main audience are particularly suitable: people in historical dress, LARP, reenactment and living history, and those with demanding expectations for presentation, costume and material quality.
TuchundStoff offers quality fabrics for historical dress, costumes and uniforms made from natural fibres. Our range includes wool fabrics, broadcloth, loden, linen, uniform fabrics and suitable materials for historical clothing, reenactment, LARP and tailoring.
Our fabric range for historical markets, LARP and reenactment
Our range is for customers seeking suitable materials for clothing, historical dress, uniforms, reenactment, LARP, living history, theatre, costumes and tailoring, rather than simply any fabric.
Wool fabrics, broadcloth and loden
For coats, capes, tunics, jackets, uniform pieces, hoods, cottas, doublets and durable historical clothing.
Linen and natural fabrics
For shirts, undergarments, summer historical clothing, tunics, dresses and many projects with a natural material character.
Advice at our market stand
Many visitors appreciate being able to feel fabrics directly, compare colours and ask material questions in person.
Stand location: near the encampments, vehicle access and shade
We prefer to be near the encampments rather than directly by the stage. A van must be able to reach our stand directly. To avoid soot and sparks, the stand should not be immediately next to a blacksmith or similar craft.
Because strong sunlight can fade linen and some fabric colours, we prefer locations facing away from the sun or at least not permanently exposed to full sunlight.
Stand sizes and space requirements
We have several freestanding stands and choose the one best suited to each event. The setup depends on the event, space, ground and audience.

Photos of our market and exhibition stands
The following photographs show examples of our stands. We choose a suitable setup for each event, space and ground.
Historical loom and craft demonstration
If appropriate for the event, we can demonstrate broadcloth weaving on an authentic reproduction of a medieval loom. This is particularly interesting for historical markets, living history events, educational programmes and related events.
For this demonstration we need approximately another 2 × 2 metres of floor space. Please tell us whether you would like a weaving demonstration and whether this extra space can be provided.
What we need for an event enquiry
The more complete your enquiry, the better we can assess whether the event suits TuchundStoff and which stand setup would work best.
