BRAWO Stuttgart
21. - 23. November 2025 | The Wind Orchestra Trade Fair

BRAWO – short for Brass and Wind Orchestra – is Germany’s only trade fair dedicated entirely to the world of wind music. Once a year, Messe Stuttgart becomes the hub of the national and international wind music scene. Organized by Landesmesse Stuttgart GmbH, BRAWO offers a central platform for musicians, music educators, manufacturers, publishers, institutions, and wind music enthusiasts from across Europe. The name is not only a catchy acronym but also reflects the event’s concept: brass meets woodwind, tradition meets innovation, amateurs meet professionals – united in a unique combination of exhibition, education, and live musical experience.
At the heart of the fair is the diversity of wind music. BRAWO brings together a comprehensive product showcase with high-quality workshops and inspiring concerts. More than 130 exhibitors present current trends, new instruments – including woodwinds, brass, and percussion – along with accessories, sheet music, stage and audio equipment, specialist media, orchestral apparel, and tailored solutions for music associations. Internationally renowned brands such as Yamaha and Pearl are represented, as well as small, specialized manufacturers – reflecting the vibrant and diverse nature of the scene.
A key component of BRAWO is the BRAWO Academy, featuring over 70 educational formats. Musicians of all experience levels benefit from hands-on workshops and seminars – ranging from breathing techniques and ensemble rehearsals to conducting masterclasses with professional orchestras such as the SWR Big Band or the German Army Music Corps Ulm. With its focus on practical relevance, the Academy offers genuine value to music teachers, conductors, and dedicated amateur musicians alike.
Live music also plays a central role. More than 30 concerts by renowned ensembles – including the Baden-Württemberg State Police Orchestra – are included in the admission and form an integral part of the official program. Competitions such as BRAVISSIMO, performance assessments for school wind classes, and the alphorn contest provide additional opportunities for both emerging talent and established ensembles to take the stage.
Exhibitors come from fields including instrument making, music publishing, music education, event technology, and accessories. The audience is just as diverse: music associations, conductors, educators, professional musicians, students, school ensembles, and dedicated amateur players – all united by their shared passion for wind music.
BRAWO maintains a close connection to the city of Stuttgart and to Baden-Württemberg – a region renowned as one of Europe’s most tradition-rich wind music landscapes. Local partnerships and the inclusion of regional ensembles further reinforce this link.
Messe Stuttgart is conveniently located next to the airport and the A8 motorway, ensuring easy access by car, train, or plane. With its modern infrastructure, it provides the ideal setting for an event that inspires professionals and music lovers in equal measure.
The BRAWO will take place on 3 days from Friday, 21. November to Sunday, 23. November 2025 in Stuttgart.
