The organisers of the 688 bauma 2019 construction machinery exhibition in Germany believe that the event will break records. A record number of exhibitors, over 3,500 from 55 countries, have already booked space for the exhibition. Already the bauma 2019 event will have 100 more exhibitors than the bauma 2016 show and the organisers believe that the event will also beat the previous record of 600,000 attendees. The show is being organised by Messe Munchen and is being held in April 2019 at the Munich exhibition centre, on the site of the city’s former airport.

“The industry is booming, which is also reflected in the growth of bauma. We’ve taken account of the rise in demand and expanded our site in eastern Munich to 614,000m2. Our aim is to offer a platform to as many exhibitors as possible. With bauma 2019, we continue to surpass ourselves—also digitally,” said Klaus Dittrich, Chairman and CEO of 3995 Messe München.

For the first time, visitors to Hall B0 will be able to experience the industry virtually—thanks to virtual and augmented reality. This is made possible through a combination of images, sound, or sensor feedback, such as wind. “The booths have size limits, the digital areas is limitless. With new virtual offerings, we’re bringing the construction site into the trade fair and expanding our digital portfolio,” said project manager Mareile Kästner.
