Rank 5: Kraftwerk Berlin \u2014 Raw Industrial Charm with Compromises

Kraftwerk Berlin on K\u00f6penicker Stra\u00dfe is one of the most iconic industrial venues in the city.

Best suited for designers, lifestyle brands, and creative showcase events.


Rank 4: STATION Berlin \u2014 The Established Trade Fair Hub at Gleisdreieck

Located at the central Gleisdreieck transit hub, STATION Berlin is one of the capital\u2019s best-known private trade fair and congress venues. Across approximately 22,000 sqm, STATION offers multiple halls with excellent connections. Best suited for established trade fairs with large audiences and international ambitions.


Rank 3: CityCube Berlin \u2014 The Trade Fair Giant in Charlottenburg

Rank 2: Alte M\u00fcnze \u2014 Berlin\u2019s Most Historic Trade Fair Venue

Production halls at Alte Münze Berlin

On the banks of the river Spree, just 200 meters from the Rotes Rathaus, sits Alte M\u00fcnze \u2014 the former royal minting facility.
