Update
The new official dates for Abf's latest edition are February 11th to 15th, 2026 in Messe Hannover.
Abf – A Brief Introduction
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.
An Industry Profile
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.

Hi Ben,
We were satisfied with your service. The option of including a breakfast instead of paying at the hotel would have been better. We will be going to InterTabac next year and maybe Spannabis in Barcelona. But we have to decide still. If we do we’ll duff get in contact with you guys otherwise we don’t.
Have a good day!

Dear George,
thanks for you mail.
Everything went very well!! We have really appreciated your fast action in solving our issue to reinstate a cancelled reservation for new guests.
The only “negative” thing was that there was not possibility to have dinner in the hotel, but my team solved going out.
We will be very glad to ask for your help for future reservation.
Thank you and kind regards

Hello, My contact person was Tom Parker and our communication from the past year was just perfect. He helped us to book rooms for our whole team. When I had issues/questions, etc. Tom always replied immediately. He offered us several hotels, as well the Pentahotel where we stayed. This hotel was lovely. Personnel was very friendly and helpful, rooms were nice, breakfast was good and we had the opportunity to eat in our hotel for diner which was amazing after such a long day at the airshow. Had a very good experience and will certainly work with you again for upcoming fairs.
Kind Regards

Dear M. Parker,
The hotel was very great.
Close to the messe and the city by metro and very convenient. It was very close to the metro. close to the center (10 min) 30 min to the messe Great Brekfast. The room was clean, and we have a present : chocolate, water and coffee.
I think we want to reserve the same hotel next year 😉
Thank you

Hello Tom,
Im really sorry for the delay. The trip was fine and the hotel really great.
Just a problem about the room with the twins beds… in fact, the hotel didn’t provide this kind of room so… Thierry and Romain had to sleep in the same bed…

Our trip to the EMO Hanover fair was successful, overall it was a great trip with lots to see and do in Hanover.
We were very satisfied with the accommodation, although we were initially looking for a hotel, we actually preferred the apartment accommodation to that of a hotel.
The service we received from Jane was GREAT.
From the moment Anton sent the request for accommodation, we received a number of accommodation options within our price range.
We have received prompt detailed responses to all the questions we had.
The payment process was simple and easy.
The location of the accommodation was perfect, a nice quiet neighbourhood with easy access to trains for transport and a number of restaurants within walking distance.
I will definitely recommend Travel To Fairs to anyone looking for accommodation when travelling abroad to attend Trade shows.
