Dismantling

For dismantling, we are setting up a one-way road on the forecourt coming from the Marriott. The exit is in the direction of Heussallee. After the end of the congress (approx. 4:30 p.m.) dismantling within the stand areas is permitted. The forecourt will be released by the local security once the participants and vehicles on display have left the building. Vehicles can then drive onto the forecourt. The instructions of the staff must be followed.
We ask you to kindly pass this information on to your service providers.

Exhibitor passes

Exhibitor passes for stand supervision are not included in the exhibition package and can be ordered separately (your package includes the higher-priced congress ticket).
Price per exhibitor pass: € 390.00 plus VAT.
Exhibitor passes include the following services:

  • Access to the exhibition area (no participation in the presentations)
  • Catering
  • Evening event

You can order additional passes using this form.

The number of passes depends on the size of the stand. Depending on the stand size, the following maximum quantities can be ordered:
