AUTUMN FAIR Klagenfurt

The Autumn Fair Klagenfurt is one of the largest and most significant consumer fairs in the Alpine-Adriatic region and takes place every September at the modern exhibition center in Klagenfurt. It is organized by Klagenfurter Messe Betriebsgesellschaft mbH, a company with many years of experience and a keen sense for trends, known for successfully hosting trade fairs throughout the region.

Unlike purely trade-oriented events, the Autumn Fair is specifically designed for end consumers and families. It offers a unique mix of shopping opportunities, information, culinary experiences, and entertainment. Around 500 exhibitors present their products, services, and innovations across approximately 50,000 square meters – ranging from regional craftsmanship and international brands to creative start-ups.

The fair concept focuses on diverse content, clearly organized into themed areas. In the Building, Living & Energy section, visitors can explore modern heating systems, sustainable building materials, interior design, and skilled craftsmanship. The Vehicles & Mobility section showcases the latest technology in new cars, e-mobility, and accessories, with an emphasis on sustainable solutions. The Health, Wellness & Leisure area centers on quality of life – from saunas and pools to preventive healthcare and outdoor activities.

A particular highlight is the Culinary & Regionality section, which brings the diversity of Carinthia and the Alpine-Adriatic region to life. Regional producers, craft breweries, and the "GenussMeile" tasting area invite visitors to indulge in authentic flavors. This offering is complemented by fashion, jewelry, and accessories – from everyday wear and traditional costumes to handmade one-of-a-kind pieces.

This wide range is accompanied by a varied supporting program. A live stage featuring music, shows, cooking duels, and panel discussions ensures entertainment for all ages, while a dedicated children's program and exciting prize draws – including the chance to win a car – make the Autumn Fair a true experience for the whole family.

The modern Klagenfurt exhibition center provides the ideal setting for such an event: centrally located, easily accessible, and equipped with infrastructure that offers maximum comfort for both exhibitors and visitors. Thanks to its clear layout – including the "fair within the fair" concept that highlights specific themed areas – it creates an efficient and engaging connection between exhibitors and the public.

More than just a traditional fair, the Autumn Fair Klagenfurt is a marketplace, a showcase of regional economic strength, and a meeting place for anyone interested in building, living, household, fashion, food, and leisure. With its broad range of topics, lively atmosphere, and engaging experiences, it stands out as one of the key events on Carinthia’s annual calendar.

The AUTUMN FAIR will take place on 5 days from Wednesday, 16. September to Sunday, 20. September 2026 in Klagenfurt.
