Demand is already strong for the 2016 688 bauma exhibition in Munich. The organisers say that following the March 2015 deadline for applications to exhibit at the show, industry interest for the show has been highly positive. The upcoming edition will run from April 11th to 17th 2016 and will take up all 605,000m2 of the 3995 Messe München exhibition centre in Munich, on the site of the city’s former airport.

Almost 3,000 exhibitors from over 50 countries have applied to take part at the show. Nine countries in all are putting on dedicated presentations: Brazil, China, Czech Republic, France, Great Britain, Italy, Korea, Northern Ireland, and the US. The top countries of origin among the exhibitors are Germany, Italy, Turkey, the Netherlands, Spain, UK, US, Austria, France, Sweden and Switzerland.

Klaus Dittric, chairman and CEO of Messe München said, "The response from the exhibitors and the high level of demand for space are truly amazing." But Dittrich is also very aware of just what problems this brings, "Of course we want to give as many companies as possible the chance to present at bauma. Yet because of this high level of demand, we will unfortunately not be able to meet all requests for space and participation."

Already it is clear that the success story of bauma is set to continue. The last event - with a total of 3,421 exhibitors from 57 countries and 535,065 visitors from over 200 countries - broke all previous records.
