IMEX Frankfurt 2027
Dates taking place: May 2027 (Dates TBA)
Location: Frankfurt, Germany
If you are in the meetings, events or incentive travel sector and you have not been to IMEX Frankfurt, what are you doing? It truly is the one show where the entire global business events community congregates, rolls up their sleeves, and works — all under one enormous roof at Messe Frankfurt. High energy, high traffic, and high opportunity — this show is like no other. And, it’s definitely the most enjoyable working trip you could imagine.
What is IMEX Frankfurt 2027 Like?
Imagine entering one of the world’s most central venues and being able to spend a day, and a little more, exploring 150 countries worth of international destinations, venues, hotels, cruise lines, airlines, and tech providers. Over 3,100 suppliers are there and over 4,500 serious buyers are walking the halls. This is not a small scale networking show with a few name tags and a sad bowl of mints. This is the real deal.
The show spans several days and manages to fit in an incredible amount of learning, motivation, and in-person business deals as well as social events like IMEXrun, Gala Dinner, and SITE NITE. Expect lots of unexpected business-related drinks on a Tuesday night at 10pm.

The Big Theme for 2027
For 2027 IMEX will once again have Design Matters as a big theme. This is in continuation of its 2026 edition. Design is a powerful theme, and for IMEX, it is about more than making things look a certain way. It is about the feeling people have about an experience, how an event works, and how a place tells it stories. Event planners, venue managers, and destination marketers will find it very useful.
Why Frankfurt Makes Total Sense
Messe Frankfurt is one of the largest and most modern exhibition spaces in the world. There are over 12,500 hotel rooms in the vicinity. It is also less than 20 minutes to the airport. You can drop your bags and be in the middle of the exhibition. If you are in Frankfurt, you can stay an extra day. The food is good, the transport system works well, and there are great things to do. The culture scene is surprisingly vibrant and will impress you.
World-Class Event, Meaningful Outcomes
Numbers tell the story at IMEX Frankfurt 2027. Previous editions brought in over 13,000 participants from different parts of the world, and thousands of business appointments are held on the show floor daily. This is not an event for business cards. This is an event for real business and real contacts.
For Travel Agents, DMCs and Corporate Incentive Planners
Here’s the thing. If you book incentive travel, manage destination programmes, or organise corporate events, IMEX Frankfurt 2027 is your playground. Skip the roller coasters.
