The Hannover Exhibition Center impresses with its 30 exhibition halls and pavilions, conference facilities and outdoor spaces, modern infrastructure, versatile event options, and excellent accessibility. Whether trade shows, conventions, or events—whether in-person, hybrid, or digital—this is where ideas find the perfect space to flourish.

With its portfolio of leading international trade fairs such as HANNOVER MESSE, INTERSCHUTZ, LIGNA, and DOMOTEX, Deutsche Messe ranks among the world’s leading trade fair organizations. Hosted trade fairs, including AGRITECHNICA, EMO Hannover, and IAA TRANSPORTATION, are held at the Hannover Exhibition Center and benefit from the venue’s flexible infrastructure.

Whether it’s a trade show for capital goods, a professional conference, a major concert, or an exclusive corporate event, this venue offers the perfect setting for a wide variety of event formats.

A special highlight is the H’Up – HYBRID EVENT HUB. Spanning 3,250 m², this event venue at the Hannover Exhibition Center combines state-of-the-art presentation technology with space for up to 1,400 people and has also been honored with the Location Award.

A light-filled foyer and direct access (“Skywalk”) to Hall 7 create ideal conditions for CONFEX events with up to 7,000 people. Several expansion options make it easy to accommodate future growth

Hannover’s exhibition grounds also have excellent transportation connections. There is a direct S-Bahn connection from Hannover Airport to Hannover Central Station. From there, Metro Line 8 takes 18 minutes to reach the Messe Nord terminus, which is located directly at the North entrance to the exhibition grounds. In addition, another light rail line serves the East entrance of the grounds. During trade shows, many Deutsche Bahn long-distance trains, as well as Erixx and Metronom commuter trains, stop at the Hannover Messe/Laatzen station.
