Stand parties at the Frankfurt exhibition grounds

What, when, how, where? All the information you need is right here

You will find all the information you need to perfectly prepare for your stand party below. If you have any other questions, simply give us a call on +49 69 75 75 54 08 or use our contact form.

Securing neighbouring stands

Security für Ihre Standparty bei der Messe Frankfurt

Please remember that as the organiser, you are responsible for ensuring that neighbouring stands in the exhibition hall are secured. That is why one stand guard must be ordered from the Shop for Exhibitor Services for every 100 guests . The minimum duration for which a stand guard can be ordered is four hours. 

You can also order “Tensator” belt barriers from the Shop for Exhibitor Services to clearly block off the party area. This reduces the risk that something might happen to neighbouring stands. And since your stand party can only take place within the confines of your stand, “Tensator” belt barriers make it easier for your guests to see where they are allowed to be. 

Good to know: You should order your required number of stand guards at least 22 days before the start of the event. As a result of the increased expenditures entailed, all orders received after this date will be subject to an express surcharge in the amount of 25%.

Admission tickets for your guests

No special regulations apply to persons who are already on the exhibition grounds. If you invite guests who arrive after the trade fair closes or do not have a valid admission ticket, the following applies:

  • A guest list of people without an admission ticket or a letter of invitation must be submitted to standparties@messefrankfurt.com at least 48 hours in advance.
  • Admission without a valid admission ticket is possible at the earliest half an hour before the trade fair closes. If an invited guest would like to visit you at your stand earlier, please order an extra admission ticket for this person via the Ticket Services for Exhibitors.

The ticket services portal also makes it easy for you to see which visitors you have already invited, as well as which of your guests have already registered. 

How to get there: Please remember that some of your guests might not know how to find your stand. That is why it is a good idea to include the location of your stand inside the exhibition hall (Hall/Level/Stand number) on your invitation.

Would you like to make it even easier for people to find your stand party?
If you want to make finding your stand – and your stand party – as easy as possible for your customers, you can order additional signage. If you are interested in finding our more, please contact our Customer Service Team on the following number: +49 69 75 75 54 08.

GEMA registration for playing music

If you would like to play any copyrighted music at your stand party, you must register this with GEMA. The organiser will be charged fees for this.

Please be sure to avoid excessive noise.

Stand cleaning

Would you like special cleaning before and/or after your stand party?
All you have to do is order this service from the Shop for Exhibitor Services.

Additional cleaning before your party is a good idea if the hustle and bustle of the trade fair means your stand no longer looks its best. That way, your stand can once again shine for your evening event.

Special cleaning after the event is also a good idea – one that saves you both time and energy, because you and your staff no longer need to stick around even later to clean everything yourself. Let your co-workers go home earlier instead, so that they have even more power and motivation for the rest of the trade fair.

And remember: if you decide to order our special cleaning service, please be sure to do so at least 22 days before the start of the event. Orders received after this date will be subject to a 25% express surcharge to cover the increased expenditures entailed.

You must also ensure that neighbouring stands are kept clean during your stand party.
