How to get to Messe Hamburg

Arrival via the A7 and A24

Hamburg is well connected to the A7 and A24 highways. If you are on the A24, exit at "Hamburg Horn". If you are coming from the A7, take the A1 at "Horster Dreieck" and continue to "HH-Centrum". Then simply follow the signs for "Messe / CCH".

However, we recommend using the public parking lots on the outskirts of Hamburg. From the parking lots, you can take the HVV or a trade fair shuttle bus.

Arrival by plane

Hamburg Airport can be reached not only from national but also from international cities. It is only 10 km away from the exhibition grounds.

Hamburg Airport is well connected to the Hamburg transport network. Opposite the first floor of the airport is the entrance to the S-Bahn.

continue with the S-Bahn and U-Bahn from the airport to the trade fair center

If you would like to go to the East Entrance, take the S1 to the main station. From there, take the S11, S21 or S31. Travel to Dammtor.

If you want to go to the Mitte or Süd entrance, take the S1 to Jungfernsteig. At Jungfernsteig, take the U2 and travel to the exhibition halls.

If you want to go to the Messeeingang West, take the S1 to Barmbek. In Barmbek, just take the U3 to Sternschanze (Messe).

continue by cab to the exhibition grounds

If necessary, you can also simply take a cab to your destination. If the traffic situation is good, the journey will take around 20 minutes. There is no fixed cab price.

Costs: approx. 25€ from the airport to the exhibition center

Arrival by train

Traveling by train is also convenient and, above all, climate-friendly. The Dammtor InterCity train station is located directly at Messe Hamburg. You can reach the East Entrance within 8 minutes on foot. It takes about 20 minutes to walk to the Mitte entrance.

continue with the S-Bahn

Would you like to go to the West or Central Entrance but don't feel like walking? Just take the S-Bahn. Take the S-Bahn lines S11, S21 and S31 to the Sternschanze stop.
