Europe hosts the largest trade shows in the world. This page ranks the 155 largest by number of exhibitors, with their city, country, sector, visitors and the year of each figure. All figures come from the official data published by the organizers, and we checked them one by one.

If you are choosing which shows to attend, each linked page shows the dates of the next edition and, where available, the exhibiting companies identified by DataOrigin. You can also browse the full [trade show calendar](https://dataorigin.es/en/trade-show-calendar/).

## Key figures

-   155 trade shows in 14 countries, 132 of them with 2025 or 2026 figures.
-   Germany hosts 67 shows, 43% of the list. Spain adds 22, France 21 and Italy 17.
-   FITUR (10,000 exhibitors), Anuga (8,015) and SIAL Paris (7,333) are the three shows with the most exhibitors.
-   bauma and EICMA report the most visitors, around 600,000 each.
-   Food and beverage and industrial manufacturing are the sectors with the most large shows, 18 each.

## Full ranking by number of exhibitors

The Year column shows the edition the figures belong to. Shows that are not held every year, such as drupa, K, bauma or interpack, appear with their latest edition. An empty visitors cell means the organizer does not publish that figure.

## How we built the ranking

-   We include professional trade shows held in Europe with exhibitors, including those that open some of their days to the general public.
-   The order is based on the number of exhibitors, the most comparable figure across shows. Some organizers count companies and others brands or represented firms, and we report them as published.
-   We use the official figure of the latest edition held. For biennial shows or longer cycles, that edition can be from 2023 or 2024.
-   When a figure covers several concurrent shows, the name says so.

We review this list as organizers publish the results of each edition.

## Getting the most out of a large trade show

At a show with thousands of exhibitors it is easy to waste time. What makes the difference is arriving with a clear idea of which companies match your ideal customer and who you want to meet. With [DataOrigin](https://dataorigin.es/en/) you can see the companies exhibiting at and attending each show, filter them by sector, country and size, and plan your agenda before you arrive. To find out which shows a specific company takes part in, try our [company trade show lookup](https://dataorigin.es/en/tools/company-trade-show-lookup/).

How was the ranking built?

We sort the shows by number of exhibitors at their latest edition held, using official organizer figures. Each row shows the year of the figure. Shows that are not held every year are included with their latest edition.

Why do some shows have figures from 2023 or 2024?

They are biennial, triennial or four-yearly shows, or shows whose 2026 edition has not taken place yet. For them we use the latest edition with published official figures.
