The area of Hamburg Messe hosts about 40 trade fairs annually, with over 15000 exhibitors and 700000 visitors.[5]
About 15 events are operated by Hamburg Messe itself.
Exhibition grounds
The convention center consists of eleven halls with a total space of 87000 m² and another 10000 m² outside of the halls.[6]
"Neue Messe Hamburg"
The current site is the result of a large expansion undertaken 2004 to 2008. Originally the fair ground was bound to the area between St. Petersburger Straße, Karolinenstraße und Holstenglacis / Bei den Kirchhöfen and consisted of the halls 1 to 12. It was then extended west across Karolinenstraße with another four halls (A1 to A4). The original halls 9 to 12 became B1 to B4 and halls 1 to 8 were replaced with the new halls B5 to B7.
The original hall 8 was 24 meters in height and had complete glass walls, making this hall particularly useful for large exhibits like full hot air balloons. It was also used for some concerts.[7]
