Important information for [Messe] exhibitors

So that you can concentrate fully on your business during your stay, we will be happy to give you some safety instructions in advance. Koelnmesse has taken numerous measures to ensure security on the exhibition grounds. In order to prevent criminal acts such as theft, however, your cooperation is also crucial. Below you will find information on how to protect your property effectively:

During construction:

• All hall doors are expected to be opened
• Are goods and stand construction elements brought in and out
• Is it not possible to control the movement of goods in the hall

Therefore:

• Leave valuables in the hotel or wear them on your body and do not deposit them anywhere
• Decorate the stand, but bring expensive goods/individual items if possible only on Sunday morning

During the fair:

• Does Koelnmesse provide general hall surveillance
• This does not include special surveillance of individual stands
• Include valuables overnight, take them with you to the hotel, order a security guard for your own stand [LINK ZUM SERVICE-SHOP] and take out appropriate insurance.

Your room enquiry can be entered on the page overnight stay . If you have still not arranged any accommodation for the fair, Ms. Astrid Wegner will be pleased to help you.
