SMM will return to Messe Hamburg as a live trade exhibition between the 1st and 4th of September 2026.
SMM (SMM Hamburg) is a biannual marine industry trade exhibition of high importance. It is the leading trade show for the marine industry. SMM is the main event for addressing the latest standards and regulations. It also allows professionals to discuss challenges. Furthermore, it is the location for governments to discuss naval security challenges. The event occurs in the Hamburg Messe und Congress.
The exhibition attracts professionals such as shipowners and operators, shipyard managers/operators, suppliers and marine interior specialists. SMM is an event that attracts a large and diverse group of attendees. For instance, one iteration included 50 000 visitants, 70 international speakers, 27 political or navy delegations, and 2 249 exhibitor firms. Attendants represent 125 countries, including the Commonwealth of Australia, the United States, Brazil, the People’s Republic of China, Norway, and South Africa. Both exhibitors and visitors consider the event to be worth attending. For instance, 95% of the exhibitor firms deem SMM an excellent expansion opportunity. 93% of the visitors regard the event to be of great importance. Also, 97% of the exhibitors attribute networking success to the event.
SMM helps maritime industry professionals complete several goals via its high-level support programme. This includes the presence of a comprehensive exhibition with five themed routes. Each route has a different name and symbol. The thematic paths are Cruise & Ferry, Digital, Green, Job, and Security & Defence. SMM also features a series of conferences and forums. Among the sub-events of this type are the Maritime Future Summit, the TradeWinds Shipowners Forum, the GMEC – the Global Maritime Environmental Congress, and the Offshore Dialogue. The Maritime Security & Defence Conference or MS&D and the Maritime Career Market are also among SMM’s leading highlights.
