Arrival Information
Traveling by car is possible. Multistorey car parking is available near the trade show as well as parking in larger car parks nearby. Although Hamburg Messe has around 3,500 parking spaces on the exhibition grounds, experience has shown that parking space at WindEnergy Hamburg is sometimes scarce. We therefore recommend that visitors from Hamburg and the surrounding area travel to the fair by public transport or use the wide range of Park+Ride services.
Here you can see all available parking facilities and P+R options.
Hamburg Messe is being served by two main train station nearby. Central Station (Hauptbahnhof) is one stop away on the overground. Dammtor is the closes train station and most trains will stop there as well if they do not start or end at the central station. From Dammtor it’s a 10 min walk through the botanic gardens to hall B4. Please note the availability of Deutsche Bahn’s event tickets. This is worth reading.
From Hamburg airport (“Helmut Schmidt Airport”), which is served by 60 airlines, take the S1 to the central station (20 mins) and change there to S11 or S3, direction Altona. 1 stop to Dammtor. Check this out here.
The trade fair grounds are well-served by public transport such as overground and underground and as they are in the city centre in easy walking distance from those stops. Tube U2 has its stop “Messehallen” directly at hall B6. These are the details.
