01 · DECISION

Which path fits your presence at Messe Stuttgart?

If the booth has to start fast, with clear pricing and low coordination, EXPRESS is usually the right entry point. If brand impact, spatial impact and visitor flow become more important, EXFAIR fits better.

02 · PROCESS

How your booth at Messe Stuttgart comes together

So your team coordinates as little as possible internally, we group planning, build and on-site support into three clear steps.

01Brief

Clarify goal, floor area and timing

The starting point only needs the essentials: what the presence should achieve, how large the floor area is and how tight the timing is.

02Recommendation

Choose the right path

From there it gets quick: whether EXPRESS is the more economic fit or whether EXFAIR offers more leverage for brand, visitor flow and impact.

03Delivery

Organize graphics, tech and operations cleanly

Production, setup, dismantling and the coordination around the presence get organized so your team stays unburdened.

Leading trade fairs: AMB, R+T, LogiMAT, Motek, INTERGASTRA, Retro Classics

Messe Stuttgart sits directly at the airport and is strongly oriented towards engineering and production: AMB for metalworking comes every two years in September, LogiMAT for intralogistics annually in March, and Motek covers assembly and automation technology. R+T for roller shutters and sun protection, INTERGASTRA and Retro Classics, which held its 25th edition in February 2026 and runs from 29 April to 2 May 2027, round out the calendar.

For booth planning: Machines and systems running live are standard here, clarify power, compressed air and extraction early. The airport location makes short journeys possible, which raises the share of day visitors and makes scheduling meetings easier.

05 · FAQ

FAQ for a trade show booth in Stuttgart

The questions that come up most often for a quick orientation, a clear brief and a professional presence at Messe Stuttgart.

When time, budget clarity and a fast decision process matter, EXPRESS Booth is usually the right fit. For custom architecture, larger floor areas and stronger brand staging, EXFAIR is the better path.

EXPRESS Booth fits when a Messe Stuttgart presence should be delivered fast, with clear pricing and low coordination effort. It works especially well when clear packages, short paths and an efficient booth structure matter more than maximum customization.

EXFAIR is the better choice when the booth should be planned strategically: custom architecture, brand impact, visitor flow, product staging and a solution tailored more tightly to brand and conversations.

Helpful inputs are the goal of the presence, planned floor area, timing, desired impact, existing graphics or systems, technical requirements and whether you're leaning toward a fast fixed-price path or a custom brand space.

Main factors are floor area, level of customization, graphics, technology, logistics, setup, dismantling, on-site support and the potential to reuse existing elements. As a benchmark, EXPRESS booths start at €5,999 net fixed price per show (companies based outside Germany pay no German VAT), including set-up, dismantling, wall graphics and flooring. Custom EXFAIR brand spaces are quoted per project because these factors combine differently each time.

Yes. We cover design, technical implementation, graphic production, logistics and the actual coordination around the Stuttgart presence, so internal coordination for marketing, sales and project leads stays low.

At Messe Stuttgart, six leading trade fairs shape the calendar: AMB (Metalworking & machine tools, every two years); R+T (Roller shutters, gates & sun protection, every three years); LogiMAT (Intralogistics & process management, annual); Motek (Production & assembly automation, every two years (from 2026, previously annual)); INTERGASTRA (Hotels & catering, every two years); Retro Classics (Classic cars & motoring culture, annual). The next confirmed dates are listed in the trade fair calendar on this page, with details on each fair in the section Leading trade fairs in detail.

R+T is held every three years. The next edition runs from 15 to 19 February 2027. An EXPRESS booth needs little lead time: quote within 24 hours, set-up in one day. A custom EXFAIR brand space needs considerably more time for concept, 3D planning and production; the earlier floor area and stand type are fixed, the more room remains for design.

Machines and systems running live are standard here, clarify power, compressed air and extraction early. The airport location makes short journeys possible, which raises the share of day visitors and makes scheduling meetings easier. The venue has 10 halls with 120,000 m² of hall space and 40,000 m² of outdoor area. The grounds sit directly at Stuttgart Airport (around three minutes on foot from the terminal to the East entrance), have their own S-Bahn station and lie on the A8 and A81 motorways. The technical guidelines of Messe Stuttgart are binding: hall heights, floor loads, rigging and delivery windows come from those documents and are checked per project before the stand is planned.

Yes. Planning, production, set-up and dismantling happen locally at Messe Stuttgart, so where your company is based does not change the process; only your team and exhibits travel to Stuttgart.

Yes, via the enquiry form on this page, at hello@exfair.de or by phone at +49 7721 885880.

No. Companies based outside Germany are invoiced without German VAT, within the EU under the reverse-charge procedure, which requires a valid VAT ID. The treatment is stated in the quote.

Yes. Besides the booth, shipping your exhibits to Messe Stuttgart and customs clearance are organised as part of the project, so products arrive on the stand in time for the show.
