Trade Fairs in Germany

Germany stands out against the international competition in terms of its facilities, its level of innovation and its broad reach. Around 150 international trade fairs and exhibitions are held in Germany every year, attracting up to 170,000 exhibitors and between nine and ten million visitors.
