Exhibit space demand for EuroShop, The World's Leading Retail Trade Fair, is very high, especially from abroad.
Five months before the beginning of the event, 1.29 million square feet of exhibit space has been booked –
exceeding the results of EuroShop 2014. Due to this strong demand, EuroShop will for the first time occupy 18
instead of 16 halls. The trade fair will take place from March 5 – 9, 2017 at the fairgrounds in Düsseldorf,
Germany.
“Exhibitor demand is so great that we even have a waiting list now. We expect some 2,500 exhibitors at EuroShop
2017. This development impressively shows that our new concept of the 7 experience dimensions was the right step
and has been received very well by the industry. EuroShop as the leading global trade fair for retailers’ entire
investment needs is enormously important for the sector. Many exhibitors deliberately schedule their product
launches and portfolios in line with the EuroShop dates,” reported Elke Moebius, Global Head Retail and
Director EuroShop at Messe Düsseldorf.
The seven experience dimensions of EuroShop 2017 will be POP Marketing, Expo & Event Marketing, Retail
Technology, Lighting, Visual Merchandising, Shop Fitting & Store Design as well as Food Tech & Energy
Management. The extensive line-up of exhibitor ranges will be complemented by the proven, high-caliber forums
with lectures presented on all five exhibition days amidst all the trade fair activities. These events will
include the EuroShop Forum Architecture & Design, the EuroCIS Forum, the POPAI-Forum and the OmniChannel Forum
as well as the ECOpark Forum and the new Expo & Event Forum. All forums will be simultaneously interpreted
from/into German and English and can be attended by trade visitors free of charge and without prior
registration.
Again taking place concurrently with EuroShop in 2017 will be the award ceremony for the EuroShop Retail
Design Awards for the world’s best store concepts as well as the presentation of the renowned Retail Technology
Awards Europe (reta). The reta Awards honor the excellent and innovative use of information technology in
retail. Both awards will be jointly presented by Messe Düsseldorf and the EHI Retail Institute.

at the airport, train station or the fairgrounds parking lots.
