Travel & Hotel Information
Berlin is an exciting travel destination at any time of the year. It is the most visited city in Germany.
Transportation to The Messe Berlin (Messegelände Berlin)
Fast local transport connections surround the fairgrounds. Because there are separate routes for automobile, bus and train traffic - as well as three different entrances to the fairgrounds themselves - all arrivals are swift, comfortable and stress free. Traffic jams are minimized by separating vehicles carrying visitors to the fair from normal daily neighborhood traffic. There are plenty of parking spaces as well as bus stops and taxi stand near each entrance.
The Messe Berlin can be reached extremely easily by:
By Plane: Germany’s capital city can be reached directly, and conveniently, via national and international air routes. Berlin has three commercial airports: Berlin-Tegel (TXL), Berlin-Schonefeld (SXL), and Berlin-Tempelhof (THF). All three airports are connected with the city center and the Messe Berlin (Berlin Fairgrounds) by trains and buses at standard public fares.
