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.

Dear Megan,
First of all, thank you for your service in short notice, obviously was my mistake for starting to search accommodation to late, but nevertheless you was on desired level of professionalism.
Regarding hotel, hotel as it is, was correct, but location in industrial zone, and lot of trucks which passing by windows was unpleasant experience, so I would not recommend this hotel for this price to no one, but I am aware of moment which we choose to make reservation in Cologne .
Regarding next IDS, it is a good idea, if we don’t have to pay nothing in advance, then yes, you can make some reservations for similar rates, but with location near city center or Koelnmesse.
Thanks once again, and stay in touch.
Kind regards,
Predrag Treskanica

Dear Tom,
As the operating and marketing manager of our new office abroad, sometimes one just doesn`t have enough time to take care of small details that come back to haunt you at the very last minute. Even though, I was not familiar with your company before and I had never worked with an external company either, you remained reassuring and have kept your word. Within a very limited time frame and with only a few emails you were able to put me and 10 of my colleagues in a good hotel, with excellent service and near the city center... I have already send you the dates and locations of our next fairs! It was a pleasure working with you and I look forward to working with you again.
