Welcome to Hamburg Messe und Congress GmbH!

Hamburg is more diverse than any other city in Germany. A vibrant metropolis, a green oasis, a city on the waterfront. Germany’s second-largest city, with Europe’s third-largest seaport and nearly two million inhabitants, is a media hub, an innovation centre, and a hotspot of international trade. Our vibrant event campus lets you host captivating trade fairs and congresses right in the centre of the city. The botanical garden “Planten un Blomen” connects our exhibition campus with the CCH – Congress Center Hamburg and all other adjacent buildings to form one coherent event area for the city. All that embedded in an excellent public transport infrastructure. Countless hotels in the immediate vicinity, and numerous leisure opportunities make every stay a pleasant experience.
