Important Information on Public Transport

Travel sustainably with your trade fair ticket! Our admission tickets, including online tickets, entitle the holder to free travel to and from the exhibition grounds on the day of your visit using local public transport operated by the MDV (Mitteldeutscher Verkehrsverbund), where this is expressly stated on the ticket.

Before starting your journey, tick the day on the weekday strip on your ticket. For online tickets, enter the ticket date and sign your ticket. Please enter the name in the online ticket shop of the visitor who will be using the online ticket. Failure to do so may result in the ticket not being valid for free travel on local public transport.

Please note: Our local transport ticket service is only valid for Leipziger Messe's own events.

Information for Visitors With Reduced Mobility

We strive to ensure that you can reach your destination quickly and unhindered. For this reason, the Leipzig exhibition grounds are designed to be barrier-free and offers short and easy routes. All halls are at ground level and there are no thresholds to restrict your access. You can find out more about accessibility at the grounds of the Leipzig Messe here.

We recommend the following entrances for your visit to the fair:

  • If you arrive by car, please use the East entrance
  • If arriving by tram, you can get to the fair via the West entrance (Glass Hall).

If you are travelling by train, please be sure to alight at the Hauptbahnhof stop instead of the Leipzig Messe stop. Accessible, low-floor trams run from the main railway station on tram line 16. Continue to the Messegelände tram stop and then follow the signs.

The DB hotline for passengers with reduced mobility can be reached by telephone via the Mobility Service Centre 01805 / 512 512 (Euro 0.14 / min.) or at www.bahn.de/handicap .
