Trade Fair for Industrial Technology and Manufacturing Industry
HANNOVER MESSE, the Trade Fair for Industrial Technology and Manufacturing Industry, takes place in Hannover, Germany from 5 April 2027 to 8 April 2027, drawing professionals and buyers from across the sector. Drawing exhibitors and trade visitors from across the supply chain, it offers a focused environment for sourcing and business development. As an annual event, it gives the community a regular moment to come together. Expect to join around 110000 attendees over the course of the event. It is staged by Deutsche Messe AG, whose experience shows in every detail of the programme. Proceedings are hosted at Hannover Messe, a fitting stage for an event of this scale.
Location matters, and Hannover delivers. It brings together the infrastructure of a major event city with the warmth of a place used to hosting guests from abroad. Hannover is well connected by air and supported by an extensive local transport network, so travelling in from abroad or elsewhere in Germany is rarely a hassle. Accommodation ranges from business hotels near the venue to characterful stays in the centre, suiting every budget. As one of Germany's key destinations, Hannover regularly hosts events that draw an international crowd.
Expect Industrial Technology, Manufacturing Industry, Industrial Automation, Smart Manufacturing, Robotics and Manufacturing & Engineering in abundance, presented by the brands and manufacturers shaping each of these areas. It is an efficient way to meet multiple suppliers, see products first-hand and build new trade relationships in just a few days. Expect to leave with a handful of new contacts you would have struggled to reach any other way. The show floor sits next to Europe Energy Week 2027, held on the same dates at Hannover Messe.
You arrive with a shortlist and leave with suppliers, samples and a plan for the season ahead. For wholesalers, retailers and the suppliers who serve them, HANNOVER MESSE remains a valuable opportunity to source, connect and keep pace with the market.
