Munich (München), the capital of Bavaria, is considered the “Heart of Bavaria”, is a major trade show and event destination. The rich heritage of the city isn’t just about beer gardens and festivals. Founded by Benedictine monks in the Middle Ages, Munich today is a world-renowned financial and publishing center.
The New Munich Trade Fair Centre was the first exhibition centre worldwide to gain the certificate 'Energy Efficient Enterprise' from the technical inspection authorities. Trade show managers will find exhibition facilities designed with exhibitors in mind for function, accessibility, and beauty.
There are several venues available for trade shows and private events in Munich. The three major exhibition venues are:
- The New Munich Trade Fair Centre has over 180,000 square meters of exhibition space in 17 exhibit halls, 16 of which are column-free.
