HANNOVER MESSE

About the event

COVID Update

The digital edition of Hannover Messe 2021 was a resounding success and showed that there are ways to keep important conversations alive and establish connections within the industry. This doesn’t mean Deutsche Messe AG will go all digital. Organisers insist on the value of trade shows being held live and the opportunities they give exhibitors to reach out their target audience.

That is why Hannover Messe 2022 returns to Messe Hannover as a hybrid event. The latest dates for the in-house event are April 25^th – April 29^th. The exhibition grounds will be fully sanitized and in compliance with all COVID-19 guidelines and protocols. However, organisers also recognize that not everyone will be able to travel, which is why they’re hard at work to add digital offers.

Calling Card 

HANNOVER MESSE is the engine that drives the industrial technology industry in Germany ever since the end of WWII. It is one of the most important procurement platforms in the country for this particular reason and has become the heart of the German industrial sector. The international trade show is staged, as the name says, in Messe Hannover on an annual basis. Editions are held at the beginning of spring usually in April and run for five days in total. As a key meeting place between supply and demand in Germany, HANNOVER MESSE gives national exhibitors the chance to grow their client list and expand their business to international markets. The trade show services the entire value chain and is also a place for innovations.
