ELEKTRO Fachhandelstage Linz

The Elektrofachhandelstage in Linz is Austria’s most important trade fair for the electrical and electronics retail industry. Since its inception in 2017, it has developed into an annual industry event held every September, exclusively open to professional visitors. The event is organized by Messezentrum Salzburg GmbH.

As a central platform for information, innovation, and exchange, the trade fair brings together all key players in the sector – from specialized retailers to international technology corporations. It focuses not only on the latest products and technological developments but also on strategic issues facing modern retail. As such, the event serves both as an innovation showcase and a driver of industry development.

The venue is the Design Center Linz – a strikingly designed exhibition center featuring modern infrastructure, a central location, and excellent accessibility. The combination of contemporary architecture and practical event logistics provides the ideal setting for a trade fair of this caliber.

The content covered is wide-ranging, spanning from consumer electronics, smart home solutions, and building technology to household appliances and information and communication technologies (ICT). Visitors gain comprehensive insights into current product trends – from 8K-resolution televisions and multi-room audio systems to intelligent household appliances, connected security technologies, mobile devices, networking solutions, and digital communications. Future-oriented technologies such as charging solutions for electric mobility have also become established highlights.

Another focal point is the ongoing evolution of brick-and-mortar retail. Topics such as sales psychology, digital marketing, shop design, service offerings, and financing models are just as prominent as the personal exchange between retailers, manufacturers, and purchasing associations. The fair is thus a key meeting place for networking, business transactions, and knowledge sharing.

With its clear positioning as a dedicated trade-only event, its concept tailored specifically to the retail sector, and its focus on current industry trends, the Elektrofachhandelstage offers not only a comprehensive market overview but also tangible added value – for technicians, sales partners, and business owners alike. It is a forward-looking platform that provides visibility and guidance to Austria’s electrical retail trade.

On the whole the organisers welcomed on the 2 days of the fair, from 22. September to 23. September 2023, about 80 exhibitors and 1903 visitors on the ELEKTRO Fachhandelstage in Linz.

The ELEKTRO Fachhandelstage will take place on 2 days from Friday, 26. September to Saturday, 27. September 2025 in Linz.
