SMM will return to Messe Hamburg as a live trade exhibition between the 3rd and 6th of September 2024. Due to the related limitations being removed, the venue does not have coronavirus safeguards. Currently, the country does not have travel restrictions in place.
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.

Dear Tom
Your mail was unfortunately in the undesirable box !
I do really thank you for your help, mainly before our travel because it was very very helpful for me.
The hotel « Zum Deutschen Eck » was perfect for what we wanted and a special mention for the person at the reception : he was very nice and competent.
The hotel was clean and very arranging so perfect for all our next K fairs for sure !
I wish you a nice day and will not hesitate to call you when we will have a need.
Best regards,
The service received by Mrs Ellie Stone can only be praised. She is professional, fast handling and 100% engaged in providing prompt and satisfying answers to customer needs and requests. All this in a very pleasant way. As to the hotel I chose, the location was great, the breakfast very nice, the rooms are quiet small, but clean and cozy. Only the bar should be looked at, as there is not much choice, neither in food nor in beverage. All in all a good place to stay during a fair.
All was OK.
Thanks and kind Regards

Hi Christine,
I’ve appreciated your service and in particular your flexibility. We usually don’t know which staff will be attending our exhibitions until very near the time, and your flexibility with this is important to us and much appreciated.
The rate for the hotel was reasonable. It was near the upper end of our budget, but good value I think, considering the following feedback from staff:
“Hotel was fine, rooms were good and had no problems. Only potential issue was the limited parking, but this didn’t affect me last week.”
“Would definitely stay there again. Staff were really pleasant and helpful, food was good and the location was pretty good too.”
“I would stop there again no problem good rooms good food and good location for city centre.”
Many thanks again for your help.
Kind regards,
Rachel

Fantastic hotel placed in the city centre of Hannover. Very nice and very big and confortable rooms. Very good breakfast service too. Best hotel I never stayed in Hannover. We stayed there for profesional reasons and in the case to come to Hannover again, we will repeat!
Hi Brian,
I have spoken to two of the people who stayed at the hotel.
The both said it was clean, very convenient for ExCel and good value for money compared to other hotels in the area.
