FIBO (FIBO Köln/FIBO Messe/FIBO Expo/FIBO Exhibition) is the premiere European wellness and fitness sector trade exposition. It is a leadership event for specialists ranging from athletes and experts to hobbyists. Founded in 1985, FIBO Köln is the central learning and presentation hub for learning for the most up-to-the-minute innovations and trends. It is one of Messe Cologne’s annual exhibitions.

One hundred thirty-three countries visit the fair, including China, the United States, Spain, the Commonwealth of Australia, Brazil, and the Republic of South Africa.
The FIBO Expo’s extensive support programme enables the completion of various business goals, such as networking. This is done via the presentation of diverse sub-events. Among the central sub-events is the extensive exhibition. It allows attendees to showcase and examine new products and services. The exposition spans nine halls and includes 14 main areas: Academy, Cardio, Consulting, EMS, Fashion, Functional training, Fighting Fit, Power, Physio, Wellness, Sports Nutrition, Interior, New Business, and Group Fitness. Each zone focuses on different products or services. For example, Sports Nutrition is the area for sports nutrition supplements.

Each category lauds different innovative wares, such as the breakthroughs created by start-ups.
FIBO Messe also features many education events as part of its support programme. Among them is the Meeting Point Health & Wellness. It gathers in one location physical therapists and fitness studio specialists. It is where specialists learn about up-to-the-minute healthcare therapy or training techniques. Professionals can additionally examine central subjects such as digital health.

This hotel was in a great location, very close to the main train station.
There are tons of restaurants and sight seeing opportunities within walking/biking distance. The value/price was much better than the hotel I stayed at 4 years ago when I attended the Ligna show.
Hello Ben,
the guys was very satisfied with the apartment you have arranged for them!
Thank you!
Best regards
