Update
AQUA-FISCH is confirmed to occur between March 6th—March 8th, 2026. The trade fair will return to Messe Friedrichshafen and continue where it left off.
Calling Card
AQUA-FISCH serves two primary functions. It is Southern Germany's most extensive purchasing platform for fishing products and terrariums/aquarium equipment. It also signifies the official start of the fishing season. Where else will AQUA-FISCH be hosted other than at Lake Constance in Friedrichshafen, Germany? The international trade fair always runs at the end of March in Messe Friedrichshafen. The trade fair gives exhibitors the perfect opportunity to debut products to an audience that has come to make purchases. It is also one of the most extensive social events for the fishing community. The fair accommodates the interest of all age groups. There is always something to do for skilled anglers, fly fishers, aquarists, children, and young adults.
Business Potential
AQUA-FISCH holds a special place in the German fishing community. It is not just a trade fair but the beginning of the season for anglers, fly fishers and aquarists. It is an opportunity for the coterie to network, reconnect, and conduct business. That is why it has earned itself the position of the most extensive fish fair in Southern Germany. What is best about the trade fair is that it presents the entire value chain of fishing and the underwater world. Discover the full spectrum of products available for fishing:
- Equipment;
- Accessories;
- Apparel;
- Bait;
- Smoking equipment and products;
- Small fishing boats.
Those interested in aquariums and terrariums also have ample wares to examine. This includes enclosures, tanks, food, lighting, equipment and plants.
Did You Know?
AQUA-FISCH is all about creating the atmosphere and engaging the community. The products are just on a static display. Instead, there is a demonstration pool for examining boat and bait demonstrations. Of course, you can get incredible skill improvement tips thanks to the invited experts in the lecture forum. The programme is built around practical advice. The topics range from technique to proper equipment. Another way to improve your fishing is by seeing the European Fly Fishing Association (EFFA) experts showcase their abilities. There is even a specialised area for children and young adults who want to try out.

HI Christine,
I have just returned from my trip as I went to London after the fair. The hotel was great. Really close to the fair and easy to get to each day by walking.
We did really struggle to get taxis each night during the fair from the hotel to the city centre as there were no restaurants around the hotel. The hotel restaurant was good but expensive and you didn’t want to eat there each time.
Kind regards,
Jackie

The hotel was very nice and very close to the fair and we even had some of our customers staying there which was a +.
The only issue was that it was a bit loud due to other guests in the hotel.
As for Tracy she did her job perfectly and we are satisfied with her.

Dear Tom,
I hope you are doing well.
Thank you for your message.
We were very satisfied with the STAYERY Frankfurt Sachsenhausen. The rooms were great and the location worked very well for us. It took us around 20 minutes by car to reach CPHI in the morning, which was perfect.
The only very small downside is that our rooms were not all located close to each other – only 2 out of 4 colleagues had rooms next to each other. This is not a major issue at all, more of a small detail, but I am mentioning it as feedback.
I will try to complete the questionnaire later today.
Regarding your question about preliminary rates for next year, as far as we know, the 2026 edition of CPHI will be held in Milan, not in Frankfurt – which is why I am not sure I fully understand the proposal to review hotel rates for the same hotel next year. Could you clarify this point?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Best regards,
