About This Event

Medica 2026, the International Trade Fair for Medical Technology and Healthcare, brings the industry to Dusseldorf, Germany from 16 November 2026 to 19 November 2026. From factory floors to buying desks, the whole supply chain shows up — which is exactly what makes the sourcing here so productive. This annual gathering builds on each previous edition. Some 78000 attendees are projected to attend across the run of the event. The chosen home is Messe Dusseldorf, where generous floor space and good transport links do half the work.

Set against the backdrop of Dusseldorf, Medica 2026 benefits from everything the city has to offer — from its transport links to its after-hours appeal. Flights land close by and public transport does the rest, so Dusseldorf is an easy city to reach and an easier one to navigate. Dusseldorf's hotels span the full spectrum, so whether you want frills or just a good night's sleep, you are covered. Beyond the fair, Dusseldorf rewards visitors with its food, culture and local landmarks. Few places in Germany are as well suited to hosting the international crowd this event attracts as Dusseldorf.

From everyday essentials to specialist lines, Health Care, Health Care Industry, Medical Sector and Medical Equipment run right across the exhibition. It rewards the prepared: come with a plan and you can line up a season's worth of suppliers in an afternoon. With 4820+ exhibitors in attendance, the hardest part is deciding which stands to visit first. Messe Düsseldorf GmbH handles the organising, and the seamless run of the days is the proof. The show floor sits next to COMPAMED 2026, held on the same dates at Messe Dusseldorf.

It is the kind of fair where a single meeting can open a new market. For manufacturers, retailers and industry buyers weighing where to spend their time, Medica 2026 makes a strong case for itself.
