In its second edition in the city of Frankfurt, Germany, Eurobike has underscored its position as the world’s leading trade exhibition for the bicycle and future mobility industry. Over the five days of the show (June 21-25, 2023), a new peak of more than 1,900 exhibiting companies was also accompanied by growth in visitor numbers.
Eurobike has reported 34,750 representatives of the trade and 31,840 end consumers on the weekend (2022: 33,780 on the Business Days and 27,370 on the Festival Days).
Stefan Reisinger, Managing Director of event organizer fairnamic GmbH, said “This year’s show seamlessly followed on the heels of last year’s success at the premiere in the new venue.
“We were able to make progress both quantitatively and qualitatively and have great momentum behind us. The charisma and drawing power that the industry currently needs could be found here in Frankfurt. This will make the Eurobike a driver of the transportation revolution and put even more focus on bicycles, e-bikes, and light electric mobility.”
Visitors headed to Messe Frankfurt from a total of 122 countries, bolstering the atmosphere over 150,000 sq m of hall space, which included a large outdoor area.
At the National Cycling Congress held as an accompanying event to Eurobike, Hesse’s Minister for Economic Affairs, Energy, Transport, and Housing, Tarek Al-Wazir, said “I was particularly pleased that the National Cycling Congress could be held in conjunction with the Eurobike for the first time.
“This demonstrates the economic importance of cycling and intensifies the exchange between the various stakeholders.”
The 31st Eurobike also offered a strong showcase of new products, with some 200 world premieres reported and more than 300 entries submitted for the Eurobike Award.
“For two days, the industry celebrated bicycles and micromobility with all bike fans,” says Eurobike Project Manager Dirk Heidrich. “The response to all of this has been great, and we have been able to spark enthusiasm on a broad basis to get more people on bicycles in the future.”
The 32nd Eurobike will take place on the grounds of Messe Frankfurt from Wednesday, July 3, to Sunday, July 7, 2024. Festival Days: Saturday and Sunday.
