Tube 2026, Düsseldorf
Metal power on the Rhine:
The world connects in Düsseldorf
in 2026
When the international wire, cable, tube and
pipe industry meets, it meets in Düsseldorf.
From 13 to 17 April 2026, the exhibition
halls on the Rhine will be transformed into a
hotspot for high-tech, innovation and global
networking: wire and Tube 2026 are coming
– the leading global trade fairs that the
entire industrial world looks to.
With 2,700 exhibitors from 65 countries on
around 120,000 square metres of exhibition
space, the trade fair duo presents itself as a
vibrant, global hub for industrial technolo-
gies of the future. From Europe to North and
South America to Asia and Africa: the world
comes to Düsseldorf because this is where
the industrial future is being made!
‘Düsseldorf is the most important trade fair
location worldwide for our industries – this
is where innovations celebrate their inter-
national debut,’ says Daniel Ryfisch, Director
wire, Tube & Flow Technologies at Messe
Düsseldorf, explaining the pool position of
the two industry giants.
Two world-leading trade fairs showcase
technological diversity at the highest level
wire and Tube showcase the entire spec-
trum of modern manufacturing technolo-
gies – from machines and systems for wire,
cable and tube production to new materials

special materials, hydrogen technologies,
plastic pipes, separation and cutting tech-
nologies, e-mobility, fibre optic technology,
fastening and joining technology, spring
