SPIEL 2025 will occur as a live event between 23.10.2025 and 26.10.2025. The trade fair will be held at the Messe Essen in Essen, Germany.
SPIEL has almost 40 years under its belt and within that time has risen to be a defining moment for players in the board game business, which in recent years has been in a state of revival. The international fair is based in Essen, Germany and occurs every October for four days. Edition after edition, SPIEL has not stopped growing. The edition in 2019 registered its highest-yet attendance – more than 1200 international exhibitors and 209,000 visitors in total at the modern exhibition halls of Messe Essen. That’s more than a reason enough to head on over to SPIEL.
Board games have long since evolved beyond being a simple children’s toy. Today the market is a multi-million-dollar industry with games targeting the whole family, casual players and serious gamers who want to be challenged. SPIEL reflects these tastes in its variety of product groups that include board, card, movement, children's, adult, interactive, skill, computer and digital games. They also include comic and action books, as well as original comic artwork. Attendees can also examine action figurines. The audience is definitely varied, but it is safe to say the majority consists of end consumers.

The 2021 edition of SPIEL took place as a hybrid event. The trade fair consisted of a face-to-face exposition and a complimentary digital platform. The edition featured around 600 exhibitors who presented more than 1000 new products. The strict Covid-19 prevention measures that were put in place at the Messe Essen included social distancing regulations.
SPIEL 2022 was held as a face-to-face trade fair between 04.10.2022 and 09.10.2022 in Messe Essen. The venue did not include Covid-19 safety measures due to the removal of the related pandemic restrictions. The event received 147,000 visitors (a 53% increase in visitor participation rate compared to the previous edition) and 980 exhibitors from 56 nations. The exhibitors presented over 1,800 board games.
SPIEL ESSEN 2023 occurred as a live trade fair between 05-08.10.2023. It took place in Messe Essen and, similar to the 2022 format, did not feature coronavirus precautions. The iteration was attended by approximately 200 000 attendants.
SPIEL Essen 2024 was a live trade expo that occurred between 03-06.10.2024 in Messe Essen. It presented the wares of more than 900 exhibiting firms from 52 nations. It was attended by around 200 000 visitants.

Dear Tom,
Thank you for your email.
ANUGA 2023 was successful. The hotel, 25hours Hotel The Circle was a great, convenient location. The staff was quite friendly and the breakfast was good. The drawback for me was very limited space to hang and store clothes. Also, the room not being equipped with an iron and ironing board was not ideal, but the front desk was able to supply upon request. Overall, I was satisfied with my stay.
Though it is still quite early, I suspect I will attend ANUGA 2025.

Dear Michelle,
I would like to thank you for all your support throughout this process.
The hotel was really good, the location was close to the fair.
I look forward to working again at the next events.
Thanks and Regards,
The agency was very polite and helpful and really managed our book reservation very well. My colleauges were happy with the hotel so thank you very much for your help indeed!
Dear Tom,
Thanks for your email. For the Golden Leaf, generally speaking, it is a good experience. There are the tasty apples and free coffee and tea in the lobby. The people in the hotel are very nice. We just complain about the wi-fi in the hotel is not good, I can't use it in my room. I found many guests complaining about it in the reception. But anyway, thanks for your help.
Best regards.
Our referent in T2F has always been at our disposal, offering an excellent service! The hotel had an excellent position and we did not find any problem, except that the rooms had never been cleaned in our 4 nights staying. Anyway we will simply point it out for next event!
Hello Tracy,

Good Michelle,
Excuse me for didn't get back to you sooner. I was busying in tracking my luggage over past days due it wasn't come back along with me as expected until 10/31 late evening. The B Hotel in Barcelona is great, I would stay there again if I visit Barcelona again.
Right now, I haven't decide if to visit the next CPhI in Milan, however, if you have info for hotel/s in there, please feel free to provide me info in that regard, I will contact you again once I decided to visit the CPhI Milan in 2024. Thanks in advance to your help.
