Exhibition Stands Hanover.
392,453 square metres of hall space, the largest covered exhibition area in Germany. At that scale a stand only works once it can be recognised from the far end of the aisle. We plan it with exactly that reach in mind, build and install it entirely ourselves, and deliver via the A5 and A7.
Your partner for exhibition stands at the Hanover fairground
The Hanover fairground brings together 24 halls and pavilions with 392,453 square metres of hall space, plus 58,000 square metres of exhibition area outdoors. That makes it the largest covered exhibition area in Germany. The three areas West, Centre and East each have their own infrastructure and can be used separately, which spreads out build traffic and access routes.
That scale shapes stand construction. In a hall where the view runs for hundreds of metres, the appearance that wins is the one using height and staying legible from a distance. So we settle early which elements carry that reach: backlit logos, a tall rear wall finish, clear wayfinding graphics above the meeting zones. Only then do we turn to the details that work close up.
Then there is the character of the Hanover fairs. At Hannover Messe, LIGNA, Agritechnica and IAA Transportation, machines, tractors and commercial vehicles stand on the floor, often weighing several tonnes. These exhibits enter the hall before the stand is built, so the order runs the other way round: exhibit first, stand around it. We align our delivery with that, drive the 330 kilometres via the A5 and A7 with our own fleet, and schedule a buffer day so the build day stays calm.
Hannover is the largest exhibition ground in the world, and every route shows it. An exhibition stand builder who works here regularly picks access and time slot to match the hall, usually via the Messeschnellweg B6 and the Messe-Süd exit. We handle the entire build from workshop to assembly and stay reachable through one contact during the fair, so short routes remain possible even on a vast site.
Our exhibition stand services in Hanover
Concept & design
We develop the stand idea, spatial layout and 3D visualisation to suit your target hall in Hanover. If a large exhibit occupies the floor, the concept follows it.
The stand frames the machine instead of competing with it for attention.
Stand construction
Your stand is built entirely in our workshop, where CNC technology, joinery and paint shop work hand in hand. Every element is checked and trial-assembled before loading.
What fits in the workshop also fits in a hall with heavy transports moving through it at the same time.
Graphics & print
Large-format printing, backlit logos and clear wayfinding graphics deliver the visual reach that counts in Hanover, because the aisles are long and the halls are wide.
We produce with colour accuracy in house and install to millimetre fit, so your brand stays legible across the full length of the hall.
Rental furniture & technology
Counters, seating, media technology and lighting are selected to match the concept and delivered to Hanover together with the stand.
One delivery, one team, everything connected and function-tested before the first visitor enters the hall.
Logistics & transport
With our own fleet we drive your stand via the A5 and A7 straight to the grounds, timed to your set-up window and to the transport of your exhibit.
The 330 kilometres are firmly scheduled, including reserve for traffic and access. Your material stays in our hands from loading to hall.
Installation & dismantling
Set-up and dismantling are handled by our own crew, aligned with the build times of Deutsche Messe.
If your exhibit is already in place, we build around it and keep the access routes clear. Spare parts for the usual wear points travel with us as a matter of course.
Storage
After the fair your stand elements move into our digitised warehouse in the Rhine-Main region.
Every part is recorded and maintained, so your stand is ready again quickly for the next edition in Hanover or another location. That lowers costs and saves resources.
On-site support
Throughout the fair you have one dedicated contact who has known your project from the start.
For Hanover dates a fitter stays on site until opening, so adjustments to the stand are dealt with quickly.
Rent an exhibition stand or build a custom one
Many of Hanover's leading fairs run on a two-year cycle, with dates in other cities in between. That is exactly when a modular build pays off: with Aluvision systems we create appearances that can be reused, with fresh graphics and an adjusted footprint. If your brand is to stand out to the fullest in those wide halls, we plan a custom stand tailored precisely to you.
- Rent: modular, reusable, predictable costs, including set-up and dismantling in Hanover.
- Build custom: full design freedom, maximum visual reach, special constructions up to double-deck.
Exhibition stands for Hanover's leading trade fairs
Hanover is the stage for the heavy subjects: industry, woodworking, agricultural machinery, commercial vehicles, animal farming. Visitors arrive with investment decisions in mind and want to touch technology, compare it and see it running. Stands here need floor space for exhibits and quiet zones for conversation. These dates are currently in the calendar:

Key facts about the Hanover fairground
The site covers around 1.5 million square metres and splits into the areas West, Centre and East, each with its own infrastructure. For stand planning that means settling access, hall position and build order early, especially when a large exhibit shares the floor. These figures give you a reliable basis for planning your stand in Hanover:
- Halls
- 24 halls and pavilions
- Area
- 392,453 m² of hall space, the largest in Germany
- Outdoors
- 58,000 m² of outdoor exhibition area
- Grounds
- around 1.5 million m², areas West, Centre and East usable separately
- Journey
- around 330 km from Offenbach via the A5 and A7, then the A37 and the B6 Messeschnellweg to the Messe-Süd exit
- Set-up
- own fleet, delivery timed to the exhibit transport
What does an exhibition stand in Hanover cost?
The price depends on stand size, build type, technology and graphics. A modular rental stand sits below a custom brand appearance with special construction. In Hanover the size of the halls adds to it: reaching people from a distance means building taller, and that shows in material and installation time. We itemise transport, accommodation and set-up separately in the quote. You can see exactly which share goes to the stand and which to the logistics.
How your exhibition stand project in Hanover runs
Consultation
In the first conversation we clarify goals, budget, stand area and your Hanover fair date. That includes whether an exhibit is coming onto the floor and when it will be delivered.
We recommend a realistic schedule; a few months of lead time give you the widest choice of space, material and design.
Design
Our designers translate your goals into a stand concept with 3D visualisation, drawn to scale for your hall.
You see materials, colours and sightlines in advance and give feedback until the design is right. In parallel we prepare structural calculations and registrations with Deutsche Messe.
Production
Your stand is built in our workshop and fully trial-assembled there. Only once everything fits does it go on the truck.
We design the floor structure to match the weight and access route of your exhibit.
Set-up
We deliver with our own fleet, usually a day before the set-up window and aligned with the transport of your exhibit.
The crew stays overnight and starts in the morning with the full day ahead. Technology, lighting and graphics are checked before we hand the stand over to you.
Support & dismantling
Throughout the fair we stay reachable and handle small adjustments directly.
After the final day we dismantle, load and bring your stand elements back to the warehouse, where they are prepared for the next appearance.
Brands we look after across Germany
From Bosch through Steiner Optik to Kiepenkerl and Sperli: these brands have had us deliver their trade fair appearances for years, at locations all over Germany and across many industries. For Simpson Strong-Tie we built a double-deck stand at Dach+Holz, a format that comes into its own in Hanover's tall halls as well. Our references from stand construction and event design show what reliable work means in practice.
