Professional and at the heart of it.
For over 70 years.

With today’s ILM (International Leather Goods Fair), everything began in 1949/50, and it is still an integral part of the trade fair’s events calendar twice a year. Today, Messe Offenbach represents much more: numerous trade fairs and events take place annually on the Messe Offenbach grounds.

In the Heart of the Rhine-Main Region

The city in the economically strong Rhine-Main region is international and cosmopolitan. Organizers, exhibitors, and visitors particularly appreciate the special, modern, and creative flair. Offenbach is multifaceted, making the exhibition venue a cosmopolitan host for numerous events.

Whether you arrive by car, public transport or plane, short distances are a hallmark of the Offenbach trade fair venue.

Many international hotels are also located within walking distance. Right on site, the restaurants and cafés in the Nordend district, as well as the newly redesigned harbour quarter directly on the river, are an inviting draw. Culturally, the stately Büsing Palais and Isenburg Castle shine as two of Offenbach’s landmarks.

We are Messe Offenbach!
