The venue

Messe Stuttgart in facts

The Landesmesse Stuttgart stands directly next to Stuttgart Airport on the Filder plateau in Leinfelden-Echterdingen. The terminals are a few minutes on foot from the halls, the S-Bahn stop Flughafen/Messe serves both, and the exhibition car park bridges the A8 motorway. For exhibitors flying in it is the shortest walk from gate to hall in Germany.

The halls are numbered 1 to 10 on both sides of the central Messepiazza; hall 10, the Paul Horn Halle, is the largest, and the ICS congress centre is part of the grounds. The halls have large skylights, so daylight changes through the day, which we watch in colour grading.

How we work at Messe Stuttgart

We travel the evening before and are at your stand before opening. Plan per day: empty stand and team first, visitors and demonstrations mid-morning, interviews at a quiet time. At Motek, LogiMAT and Control running machinery is the subject, so video takes a bigger share.

Interviews are staged on your stand or on the Messepiazza when the weather allows, with lavalier microphone and our own light. You may photograph and film your own stand; for other stands and recognisable visitors we ask for consent where required. Delivery within 24 hours after the show day. Travel from Essen is quoted once per trip and shared between exhibitors of the same show week.

FAQ

Questions exhibitors ask about Messe Stuttgart

What does a trade fair photographer at Messe Stuttgart cost?

Basic €990 for two hours, Professional €1,490 for four hours, Full Day €1,990 for eight hours, all plus VAT. Travel from Essen is quoted once per trip and shared between exhibitors of the same show week.

Do we have to pay German VAT?

Non-EU companies are invoiced without German VAT. EU companies with a VAT ID receive a reverse-charge invoice. German companies pay VAT at the standard rate.

How far ahead should we book?

For LogiMAT, CMT and the Motek week, four to six weeks ahead is sensible. Outside the peak weeks a few days are often enough.

Do we need a permit to photograph our own stand?

No. As exhibitor you may photograph and film your own stand; our crew enters on your exhibitor passes or a media pass we arrange. For other stands and recognisable visitors we ask for consent where required.

How is travel from Essen charged?

Travel to Stuttgart and, where needed, an overnight stay are quoted once per trip and shared between exhibitors of the same show week, so the share per exhibitor is small.

When do we receive the photos and video?

Within 24 hours after the show day ends, first photos usually the same day, so you can post while the show is still running.

Can we have the material before our flight home?

The airport is next to the halls, so many exhibitors fly out the same evening. First photos usually reach you that evening and the full set within 24 hours, wherever you are.
