AQUA - FISCH 2026

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.
