    It is been 14 years I visit Anuga, the biggest Food show in the world. If you are in the Food and beverages industry, visiting this place is a must.

    Big building but everything is planned. The halls are well planned and documented in the maps at most junctions. Food area is in the middle and it has train connections to many parts of the city. It is where Gamescom is held. It can get crowded but once you know where you're headed, you cannot get lost. Always a great experience to be there.

    My first time ever as an exhibitor and wow, when I arrived there the first day I felt completely overwhelmed as this Fair is *HUGE*! Stairways up/down/up again... 😁 This takes one major organisation to process all this. I found the numbers of the booths quite unlogically numbered and I wasn't the only one : many people walking to/fro in trying to find the right booth /stand. One good advise : you will not be able to visit the Anuga in 1 day : far too big and there is a lot to see / taste from places all over the world!

    The Art Cologne is described as one of the biggest art exhibition centres. It is really worthwhile going in there. The exhibition centre has a huge parking area but is very accessible through public transport. Pets, food and drinks are not allowed. There are restaurants inside. They have wardrobes which used to be free, but now they charge per piece... 😔 so now you see visitors with backpacks 🎒 🤣

    Amazing - Anuga at cologne. This is the best food fair. The variety of people , location, the climate is amazing. One has to visit this place to know it for real. It has been one of kind place and must visit for anyone looking to source new suppliers or looking for new buyers. I like the simple way it’s arranged and how easy it is to navigate.

    Gamescom 2023 was an absolute swarm of people. I recommend to not try to park here, but take a bus or taxi in. Anyway, the fair itself is a spectacle to behold. Very crowded, but fun to see.

    The exhibition area is really big and planned. Transitions between halls and layout plans are quite easy and understandable. The cleanliness of all areas is impeccable. There are food and beverage areas in all the halls and in the middle areas. There is easy access to all parts of the city.

    Very good fairs grounds. All important people around the world come together to exchange experiences and contacts. Thank you for good organisation. Good Covid-19 control and strict rules about it. I like it. Hope to be back again in next Anuga.

    You need to keep your ticket to leave the fair! Why? The signs leading to the various areas are too small to be seen from a far. The food and drink prices on site are ridiculous. The online ticket shop is too complicated and disorganized, so it's better to buy tickets on-site which is complete nonsense in the modern world. Other than that, spacious clean fair grounds with big outside areas. Your satisfaction level.will depend on the content of the fair and how many visitors will be there.

    It’s 2020 and they still don’t have lockers and their wardrobe is cash only despite the rip off price of 3€ per item. It takes ages to walk there trough dust and traffic to go back and withdrawal cash!! The over retired ladies are the first to greet you at the wardrobe and of course do not speak a word of english. Outrageous for an international fair. the welcome you get when you come here as a visitor is sinistrous. I will never come back.

  • 4/5 Vincentadm 1 year ago on Google
    Gamescom 2022 was an amazing experience! First big expo for me since corona entered our lives. Everything was well organised and set up. Even with the heatstroke and a lot of people, the temps were manageable. Not every major tech company was present, but still enough boots to fill 2 days. I am already looking forward to next year!

  • 3/5 Nikos V. 2 years ago on Google
    The Anuga fair this year was totally different from what we knew as Covid has kept many visitors and producers away. The fair was well organized, all Covid measures have been occurred, parking was much easier and transportation from it really quick.

    Went there for the ISM trade show, huge building with lots parking lots and easy access from all the gates. The train station is opposite to the south exit. The staff there are extremely helpful and polite and they’d help you with anything you need, and they even ask us how’s everything is going or if we needed anything. There’s an area at the south exit where you can leave your suit case and coats and take them back later. The buildings are easy to navigate especially if you have the ISM app which will help you a lot. There a lot of restaurants and cafes all over the place whenever you need to take a break. All in all a well organized exhibitions center.

    Great place for exhibition, IDS the biggest dental exhibition in the world take place here every two year, but because of Corona this year was the smallest one with less exhibitor and less visitors

  • 5/5 Nadia G. 2 years ago on Google
    A very large and super well organized space where we enjoyed the ISM & ProSweets 2022 fair. Very well connected, just 5 minutes from the central station.

  • 4/5 Roberto S. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice friendly girl and boy serving the table. Food, one dish good and another less.. THAI German style in my opinion. To many dishes on the menu. Suggestion: less choice but more genuine Thai.. Overall a nice experience.

    I had a very successful covid vaccination experience. The place is very well organized, though it is crowded, but there is a lot of space and it is possible to keep distance from one another. It took me 2 hours from the moment that I arrived to the moment I left.

  • 4/5 Afra Z. 2 years ago on Google

  • 3/5 Jp R. 7 months ago on Google
    Big facility, really big and good near it's own station. For me everything else is below par such as - Toilets almost impossible to find, huge distances to get to them and staff not bothered to tell you where they are - Hopeless food options, long lines, nothing vegan - Ticket and security in which is fine but slow as other Ops here
