An Institution in the German Trade Fair Calendar

Consumenta in Nuremberg was founded in 1952 and has since become a fixture in the German trade fair calendar. Organized by AFAG Messen und Ausstellungen GmbH, it takes place annually in late autumn at the Nuremberg Exhibition Centre – in the Franconian metropolis of Nuremberg, Bavaria, the largest city in the Middle Franconia region.

Themed Worlds

Consumenta presents a wide range of products and services across approximately 80,000 square meters in nine halls. The themed worlds range from building and living, household, furniture, and furnishings to health, wellness, hobbies, regional specialties, and enjoyment. Over 1,000 exhibitors from trade, crafts, industry, services, and gastronomy are represented.

Parallel Fairs and Experience

One admission ticket grants access to all concurrently held exhibitions – including the iENA inventors' fair, the Nuremberg Pet Expo, and other special shows. Hands-on activities like the "Treasure Hunt" and a diverse stage and show program complete the trade fair visit and make Consumenta an experience for the whole family.

One of Germany's Largest Consumer Goods Fairs
