The "infa" in Hanover has been one of the largest experiential and shopping trade fairs in Germany since 1954 and takes place annually in October. It is organized by the renowned Deutsche Messe AG and serves as an important platform for industry professionals and the general public alike. But what does the abbreviation "infa" actually stand for? "Infa" represents "Information and Sales Exhibition," perfectly encapsulating the core essence of the fair information and shopping combined. The infa covers nearly every aspect of life and is divided into various thematic worlds, some of which also operate as standalone fairs. These include "Christmas" for Christmas accessories, "infa creative" for crafting supplies and artistic design, "Infalino" for everything baby-related, "Lifestyle" for fashion and lifestyle, "build + live" for all things related to one's own home, "Market Hall" offering a variety of products, "Bazaar of Nations" for international trends, and "Beauty & Wellness" for cosmetics and beauty care. Visitors can look forward to trends and novelties from a multitude of areas, such as multimedia, toys, furnishings, and culinary delights. In addition to product presentations, the infa offers an extensive supporting program. From interactive theater and crafting workshops to home advice and cooking demonstrations by top chefs, there's something for everyone, creating a unique ambiance. The highlights of the fair are undoubtedly the weekend specials "infa creative" and "infalino," as well as "infa regional" over two weekends. They offer visitors specialized shopping and experiential worlds and are a draw for both young and old every year. The Hannover exhibition grounds, with their modern architecture and spacious areas, serve as the venue for this impressive event. The infa will take place on 9 days from Saturday, 11. October to Sunday, 19. October 2025 in Hanover.
