Exhibitor registration is the first step in preparing your successful trade fair appearance. We have compiled further important stages and information for your planning below. You are also welcome to use our checklist.
After the start of the placement, you will receive a placement proposal by e-mail to the correspondence contact named in your application.
As soon as you have confirmed your stand proposal, you will receive your admission invoice from mid-November 2024. Further information can be found under "6. Invoicing - admission and final invoice".
The stand space booked via online registration does not include stand construction. You have the following alternatives for constructing your stand:
Submit any necessary documents to the Technical Exhibitor Service (TAS) in the following cases:
Please note our information regarding stand design and special exhibits.

E-Mail:tas1@messe-muenchen.de
To perfectly equip your stand, we offer you a wide range of services such as electricity, cleaning, security and parking permits, which you can conveniently order online via our Exhibitor Shopfrom November.
If you have any questionsHotline of the Exhibitor Shop will be happy to advise you:
Your entry in the exhibitor directory and in the f.re.e visit planner is managed by the publishing house f.re.e Media Services c/o jl. Medien e.K. and is therefore our only partner in this field.
We would like to point out that exhibitors at f.re.e are often contacted by external companies who are supposedly acting on behalf of Messe München. Please note that these companies have not been commissioned by us.
All information regarding set-up and dismantling, logistics and traffic on the exhibition grounds - e.g. traffic guidelines, delivery of goods, authorized forwarding agents - can be found under Logistics & Traffic.
As soon as you have confirmed your stand proposal, you will receive your admission invoice from mid-November 2024.
The final invoice will be sent to you approximately 4 to 6 weeks after the trade fair. The "Advance payment for services" item listed on the admission invoice will be taken into account.
Take the opportunity to secure the early bird price for next year during the trade fair. From February 19, 2025, you can register online for f.re.e 2026 and benefit from particularly favorable participation conditions.
We would like to point out that the co-exhibitor registration must be received by January 19, 2025. You can find out how to register co-exhibitors here.
If you wish, you can order online vouchers for customers and invite them to the trade fair. This is very easy via the Exhibitor Shop. You will be billed via the exhibitor's final invoice. Only vouchers that are actually used will be charged.
You can also present yourself to visitors outside your stand by booking attractive advertising space on the exhibition grounds. You will find an overview of the advertising spaces available, such as promotion teams or Windmasters on the way to the entrance, in the advertising space brochure.
