When the building technology industry gathers in Frankfurt, the first impression at your stand decides. We staff your presence with experienced hosts, promoters and service staff who welcome visitors and prepare conversations.
ISH is the global leading trade fair for building technology around water, heat and air.
The organiser is Messe Frankfurt Exhibition GmbH. The fair takes place every two years in Frankfurt am Main; the next dates are 15 to 19 March 2027 and the claim is “The Power of Solutions”. It shows bathrooms, sanitary, heating, air conditioning, ventilation and renewable energies, organised in eight solution areas.
According to the fair, the 2025 edition (17 to 21 March) counted 2,183 exhibitors and more than 160,000 trade visitors from 149 countries; 72 percent of exhibitors came from abroad. One trade medium names 163,157 visitors and 54 exhibitor countries.
For exhibitors this means very high visitor numbers, long days and technical consultation at the stand. Anyone who wants to appear professionally needs staff who manage visitor flows, welcome guests warmly and capture contacts reliably.
To make your stand look professional from set-up to the end, most exhibitors combine several staff roles. We staff them all from one source – with clear responsibilities, coordinated shift planning and one contact. Find out more about our trade fair hostesses and moderators for fairs and congresses. What a deployment costs is explained in our guide to the cost of a trade fair hostess.
The first face visitors see at your stand. Our hosts welcome guests warmly, qualify enquiries, take care of accreditation and cloakroom and keep the stand organised even at peak times.
Catering, bar and lounge operation at a level that suits the brand. We provide bar crews for stand parties, barista teams for the espresso bar and banquet staff for receptions – also in parallel across several halls.
Present products, approach visitors, capture contacts. Our promoters approach visitors actively, demonstrate products and offers and capture relevant contacts digitally on the spot. Before every deployment there is a briefing on your programme and your arguments.
Setups like this do not happen spontaneously. A large deployment of this size is backed by weeks of preparation: castings, contract handling, shift planning, outfitting, backup quotas for sickness and a central dispatcher reachable seven days a week.
We bring this experience to ISH as well. You get a fixed contact who is reachable before and during the fair – from the briefing to the shift handover.
For ISH the team of our event staff agency Frankfurt is available. If needed, we add staff from our other locations. You will find all fairs in the region in the trade fair calendar; comparable deployments are shown on our pages for Intersolar Europe and IFA Berlin.
ISH takes place every two years. The next dates are 15 to 19 March 2027 at Messe Frankfurt. The organiser publishes opening hours on the fair website.
Our hostesses and hosts welcome guests at the stand, take enquiries and guide visitors to your stand team. On request they handle accreditation, cloakroom, contact capture or the supervision of meeting areas. Scope and tasks are agreed with you in advance in a briefing.
In-demand profiles are taken quickly for large fairs. We therefore recommend sending your enquiry several weeks before the fair starts. Short-notice requests are still possible depending on availability. Send us the key data on stand, days and staff requirements and you will receive an offer within 24 hours.
English is standard for all eventas trade fair hostesses. Depending on availability, hostesses with Spanish, French, Italian, Mandarin, Arabic and other languages are also available. Tell us in the briefing which languages your visitors speak.
For 2025 the fair names 2,183 exhibitors and more than 160,000 trade visitors from 149 countries. 72 percent of exhibitors came from abroad. One trade medium reports 163,157 visitors, so we round to “more than 160,000”.
The price depends on days, hours, number of people and profile. How we calculate and which factors determine the price is explained in our guide to the cost of a trade fair hostess. You receive an individual offer within 24 hours of your enquiry.
Send us a few key details about your stand, your programme and your staffing needs – we will get back to you with a concrete proposal and suitable profiles. Non-binding, with no lead times required.
