Nuremberg rallies were huge political rallies held annually by the Nazi party (NSDAP). The amount of people that came created a huge energized crowd so people left feeling very persuaded to believe in the Nazi cause.
Another reason for their importance was that Hitler spoke here. All ages were invited to attend. Special camps were created for nazi children to attend.
The site: http://www.historyplace.com/worldwar2/triumph/tr-will.htm has a lot of good information.
Edit: It seems other answerers are confusing the Nuremberg Rallies with the Nuremberg Trials. These are two very different things, but the latter was strategically planned in the city to show that Nazism and other powers like it would not be tolerated.

Are you talking about the actual Rallies? The Nuremberg Trials were a different thing. Here's the lowdown from wikipedia:
