The new official dates for Abf's latest edition are February 12th to 16th, 2025. Messe Hannover will not include coronavirus precautions due to the repealing of the country’s pandemic restrictions. Likewise, Germany at present, does not incorporate travel limitations.
Abf is the perfect event for you to learn the newest trends in the world of travel, sports, and camping and increase your visibility among professional visitors and end consumers. Germany has one of the best-developed travel and camping cultures in Europe, so Abf gives you access to an enthusiastic audience. Attendance is in the tens of thousands, and the last edition almost hit 92,000 visitors in total. In comparison, there were only about 700 exhibitors at the exhibition centre. That is more than enough to do some market research, study competitors and sell your products and services.
There are five zones at Abf – travel and holiday, bicycle and outdoor, caravanning and camping, auto and accessories, active and fit. Altogether, they cover the entire value chain for the travel and leisure time sector. You have access to travel destinations and packages, as well as equipment and accessories for you and your car. Product groups include motor vehicles, caravans, bicycles, sports and fitness equipment, e-bike cargo bikes, BMX, e-skateboards, hoverboards and e-scooters. You are able to see, touch and test our products and there are plenty of activities such as the kids and teens area.

The 2023 iteration of abf signified the event's successful restart. The live trade exhibition, held in Messe Hannover, did not feature coronavirus precautions. This was due to the repealing of the country's pandemic restrictions. The iteration was attended by 91 000 visitants and 500 exhibiting firms. 82% of the visiting would attend the next abf, and 87% would recommend the fair to other industry members.
The 2024 iteration occurred as a live trade exposition between January 31st and February 4th, 2024. The edition featured more than 86 000 visitants who examined the wares of over 530 exhibiting firms.
Dear Tom,
thank you again for your care and professionalism. For sure I'll address only to you for all future events as well. As for the hotel - it is located very good, the interior layouts are also very good. The only minus there is extremely poor breakfast. Last time in Arosa Hotel, and even in Crown hotel they were much better, being at the same time enough plain.
Thank you again for your help!
Regards,
Irina

Dear Michael
Thanks for reaching me out. Tom Parker was very helpful and patient as we did so many changes due to the pandemic situation not so easy to manage.
For the future we would prefer to include the breakfast in the negotiation with the hotel.
I will leave my feedback in the link you provided soon.
Best regards
Thank you Megan,

Good morning,
Thank you very much for your services. We were very satisfied with the hotel.
The only problem was the lack of parking - we had to use offsite car parks. We need to take this into account in our future arrangements.

Hi Tom,
Good exhibition.
The hotel as expected, had a little bit of trouble getting in, door codes were sent to wrong phone number, but fixed when calling the reception. So nothing to complain about.
Thanks
