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.

The themed worlds range from building and living, household, furniture, and furnishings to health, wellness, hobbies, regional specialties, and enjoyment.
