THE LARGEST MARKETPLACE IN THE CITY
Around 85,000 square metres make Messe Graz the largest marketplace in the city. Public fairs, trade fairs and congress fairs are held throughout the year on a wide variety of topics.
100 years and not a bit old
You wouldn’t know that Messe Graz is more than a hundred years old. Neither from the outside, nor from the inside, where it is architecturally impressive on the one hand, and on the other with the many exciting events that take place here throughout the year. The centrepiece is Hall A with its contrasting metal façade, a building by the award-winning Graz architects Riegler Riewe, who are also known in Graz for the airport and the Med Campus.
Trade fairs of all kinds
Hall A takes up an impressive 15,000 square metres of exhibition space on two levels, more than a quarter of the total exhibition space (covered and open-air area). Together with four other smaller halls and the exhibition park, there is enough space for public exhibitions, trade fairs and congresses. Naturally with a multifunctional infrastructure for customised settings. The MCG also utilises this for its own purposes, for example for its own trade fairs.
