FAQs

What time is lunch available at Sibos?

Lunch will be available in the Sibos food hall and Sibos restaurant from 11:30 until 14:30 on Monday to Wednesday and 11:30 until 14:00 on Thursday.

To avoid food waste both locations have a set number of portions per day, so your first choice of meal may not always be available.

This year, there will also be food trucks offering drinks and snacks. At lunchtime they’ll offer options such as specialty barista-made coffee, soft drinks, pretzels, cinnamon rolls and Frankfurter hot dogs. In the afternoon you can savour German draft beer, sparkling, white or red wine, or even try the local apple wine.

Find the food trucks at Agora – Forum, Level 0.
