Holding events sustainably

The best way to get where you’re going

NürnbergMesse has excellent connections. The U1 underground line connects the Exhibition Centre directly to the main railway station and the Nuremberg city centre.

Getting here with less environmental impact

An event ticket from Deutsche Bahn can bring you by rail to your trade fair and the Convention Center at a reduced price.

Choosing hotels with a clear conscience

We’ll help arrange accommodations for your event at partner hotels that have made a special commitment to environmental protection and/or social concerns.

Exhibition Center

Barrier-free access (e.g., with lift) across the site. Wheelchair-accessible WC facilities.

Wheelchair hire

We’ve set up a wheelchair hiring station with the Bavarian Red Cross for those who will need a wheelchair during their visit here.

Infrastructure

A tactile floor guidance system in Halls 3A and 3C ensures barrier-free access for those with impaired or restricted vision. Audio induction loops* support hearing-impaired event attendees (*note: currently available only in certain auditoriums)

Regional products from organic farms

Groceries are procured mainly from farming operations in the region (such as produce from the famed Knoblauchsland area nearby). Preference goes to seasonal products and products from organic farms.

Reduced food waste

Even as we plan an event, we already give special attention to avoiding food waste. We carefully calculate quantities so we can buy only as much as we really need.

Recycling

We use an effective recycling system, collecting leftover food for disposal by a specialist company, while usable biowaste is processed in a biogas installation. We also donate returnable bottles to various organisations as a way of contributing to the community and supporting the recycling loop.

Energy-efficient settings

We help save energy at events with efficient settings. We adjust temperature settings, switch systems off at the right time, optimise lighting, and make efficient use of express paths.

100% green electricity

Since 2020, we’ve offered only certified green electricity for our customers. Also, thanks to the solar panels on NürnbergMesse’s roofs, we’ve been generating solar power since 2023. That makes our power consumption more independent.

100% LEDs

We’ve gradually converted the lighting on our site and in our halls to energy-saving LED lamps. That has already saved several million kWh of electricity, and thus also CO2.

Digital trade fair logistics system

Our digital trade fair logistics system is a smart on-call system we’ve developed to help reduce traffic jams on the way to and within our grounds. It covers all vehicles that come in to load and unload goods or passengers.

Digital navigation and information system

We’re reducing physical signage on the grounds, and rely instead on using the “myLocation” digital navigation and information system.

360-degree tour

You can use our interactive 360-degree tour to explore all the rooms and auditoriums on the site even before your event – and with no expenditure of CO2 emissions for travel or hotel stays.
