Trade fair shuttle service in Hamburg: fair, CCH and entrances

Hamburg Messe and the CCH

Hamburg Messe sits right in the city on Messeplatz, between the Planten un Blomen park and the Karolinenviertel. According to Hamburg Messe und Congress, it has 11 halls with around 87,000 m². The CCH – Congress Center Hamburg – is right next to Dammtor station and connected to the exhibition grounds.

East, Central, South and West Entrances

The East Entrance is at Dammtor and the CCH, the Central and South Entrances at the Messehallen underground stop, and the West Entrance near Sternschanze station. Which entrances are open depends on the fair, so we match the drop-off point to your hall plan.

Parking with height limits

According to the trade fair company, there are around 3,500 parking spaces at the grounds, and the underground car parks have height limits of 1.90 m (CCH) and 2.10 m. Hamburg Messe recommends park and ride and public transport; with a shuttle, the chauffeur drops your team as close to the entrance as access allows.

Airport trade fair shuttle: from Hamburg Airport to the fair

Hamburg Airport

From the airport in Fuhlsbüttel it is only approx. 10 km to the fair, about 17 minutes without traffic, and approx. 10 km to the CCH. By S-Bahn with a change, the trade fair company allows around 30 minutes. On request, the chauffeur picks your team up at the airport.

Hamburg central station and Dammtor

From the central station (Hauptbahnhof) it is approx. 3 km, about 6 minutes without traffic. Anyone arriving by long-distance train at Dammtor is almost at the East Entrance already; for luggage and stand material, we can pick your team up at the station on request.

If your team travels on to another city after the fair, our city-to-city transfer from Hamburg takes care of it.

Hotel and fair: short distances in Hamburg

Around the fair

According to Hamburg Messe, around 100 hotels are within walking distance, for example in St. Pauli, the Karolinenviertel and the Sternschanze area. Here the shuttle mainly carries luggage, material and team members on long shifts.

By the Alster

From the Alster and Jungfernstieg it is approx. 2 km to the fair, about 4 minutes without traffic.

HafenCity

From HafenCity the shuttle covers approx. 3 km, about 5 minutes without traffic.

Example: a stand team of 20

If a stand team of 20 is staying at hotels near Hamburg Airport, on paper one Sprinter and one Business Van cover them in a single run, without bulky luggage. Each vehicle needs about 17 minutes each way for the approx. 10 km without traffic, so a second run with the same vehicles – for later stand staff, for example – would be possible after about 34 minutes at the earliest. We check availability when you send your request.

Trade fairs in Hamburg: SMM, WindEnergy, INTERNORGA and more

Hamburg Messe hosts SMM for the maritime industry and WindEnergy Hamburg (both every two years), INTERNORGA and the Aircraft Interiors Expo (both every year), as well as Nordstil and REISEN HAMBURG. Large congresses also meet at the CCH – the fair and a congress can be combined in a single shuttle plan.

In short: your trade fair shuttle in Hamburg

With a trade fair shuttle in Hamburg, your team travels from the airport, the central station or the hotel straight to Hamburg Messe or the CCH – no hunting for parking. Tell us the fair, the dates and the size of your team, and you will receive one quote for every day of the fair.

Frequently asked questions about the trade fair shuttle in Hamburg

We price every trade fair shuttle in Hamburg individually, because the price depends on the length of the fair, the size of your team, the vehicles, the routes and the departure times. You receive one quote for every day of the fair, which you can request without obligation. For single car journeys, from the airport to Hamburg Messe for example, the price calculator shows the fixed price straight away, with all prices including VAT.

Hamburg Airport and Hamburg Messe are only approx. 10 km apart, about 17 minutes without traffic. By S-Bahn with a change, the trade fair company allows around 30 minutes. When a fair opens and in rush hour the journey takes longer, so we plan the pick-up with a buffer.

That depends on your hall. The East Entrance is at Dammtor and the CCH, the Central and South Entrances at the Messehallen underground stop, and the West Entrance near Sternschanze. Tell us your hall or stand number and the chauffeur will drop your team at the right entrance, as far as access is open on that fair day.

Often, yes – not for the short walk alone, but for luggage, stand material, early set-up times and the airport runs. According to Hamburg Messe, the underground car parks at the fair and the CCH have height limits of 1.90 to 2.10 m; a shuttle drops your team right at the entrance and collects them after closing time.

Yes, on request. If your team lands in Fuhlsbüttel, we agree the meeting point, waiting time and vehicle with you in advance and take them straight to the fair, the CCH or the hotel. For several people on the same flight there is the Business Van for up to 6 or, on request, the Sprinter for up to 17.

According to Hamburg Messe, the underground car parks have height limits of 1.90 m (CCH) and 2.10 m; minibuses such as the Sprinter are usually taller. The trade fair shuttle therefore does not park underground: it drops your team at the entrance and collects them at the agreed time. We arrange in advance where the vehicle waits.
