The trade fair city of Leipzig is very well connected to long-distance public transport and also boasts a well-developed local public transport network. At the central train station, long-distance travellers can easily change to the suburban train (S-Bahn), bus or tram towards the trade fair grounds.

You can get directly to the exhibition centre by bus and tram (‘Messegelände’ tram stop). You can also reach us by regional train (RB) or S-Bahn. “Leipzig Messe” is the nearest station.

Provided this is expressly stated on the respective ticket, our admission tickets entitle you to free return travel to and from the event venue on the day of your visit using local public transport operated by MDV (Mitteldeutscher Verkehrsverbund) in tariff zone 110.
