FAQs - Exhibitor passes

Will the exhibitor passes be sent to me automatically?

No, you order your desired number of exhibitor passes in the closed exhibitor area and can download them directly after ordering or send them to your colleagues by e-mail.

How do I order exhibitor passes?

We will send you access data to the closed exhibitor area (GAB) by e-mail. In the GAB you can download your free exhibitor passes or send them by e-mail. You can order additional exhibitor passes for your stand personnel and voucher codes for your customers in the same way as for the parking ticket shop in the GAB.

Simply select the desired number. After ordering, you can personalise your exhibitor passes, download them or send them to your colleagues. Repeat orders are possible at any time.

Depending on the size of your stand, a contingent of free exhibitor season passes is available to you as main exhibitor. The exact number will be displayed in the closed exhibitor area.

After the trade fair, you will be invoiced for the exhibitor passes that you have used to enter the fair and that exceed your free quota.

Can I still change the exhibitor passes (on site) and if so, where?

You can change the name on your exhibitor pass or order a new one. Please note, however, that the QR code for access remains the same in the event of a change. You cannot access the same QR code more than once at the same time.

Can I upload my stand personnel at once?

Under the menu item Passes & Tickets - Exhibitor passes you will find the option to save, send or download all exhibitor passes at the very bottom of the page. You can copy your stand personnel into the Excel template. Then use the "XLS/CSV Import" button to upload your saved template. You can then send or download the tickets collectively or individually.

What do I have to pay?

Depending on the size of your stand, a contingent of free exhibitor season tickets is available to you as the main exhibitor. The exact number will be displayed in the GAB.

After the trade fair, you will be invoiced for the exhibitor passes that you have used to enter the fair and that exceed your free quota.

What happens if I lose my exhibitor pass?

If you have not yet entered the exhibition grounds with your pass, you can simply reprint it. If it has already been redeemed, we recommend that you have your exhibitor pass blocked in order to prevent misuse. In this case, please contact either our service team in the Service Center Mitte in Hall 6 or our hotline:

Can I also park with my exhibitor pass?

No, please use the parking ticket shop to order parking tickets. The parking ticket shop is also integrated into the closed exhibitor area.

I don't have a printer - what now?

You can also save your exhibitor pass on your smartphone and show it at the entrance control.

Can I print the exhibitor passes several times?

Each exhibitor pass contains a QR code with an individual access code, which is scanned on admission and then blocked to prevent misuse. This means that you cannot enter the fair simultaneously with more than one person with one ticket printed several times.

Can I also order visitor vouchers for my stand personnel?

No. Exhibitor passes entitle the holder to enter the hall one hour before the start of the fair so that final work can be carried out at the stand or a team meeting held. With a visitor ticket, access is only granted at the start of the fair at 9 a.m.

FAQs - Invitation Codes

How can I invite my customers?

In the closed exhibitor area you can order voucher codes to invite your customers.

The voucher codes can either be downloaded as an Excel file, sent directly to your customers by e-mail via the online shop or saved as a PDF and printed out. Your customers will then redeem the voucher codes in the Online Ticket Shop for an admission ticket. The voucher code alone is not sufficient to gain access to the trade fair. It must be exchanged online for an admission ticket. Unfortunately, this is not possible on site.

After the trade fair, you will be invoiced for the voucher codes which were used to enter the trade fair.

If you have not received or misplaced your access data, please contact our support team:
