FESPA Global Print Expo Berlin

Established in 1962, the FESPA Global Print Expo is widely regarded as Europe’s premier trade show for large-format printing, with a strong international reputation. Originally an acronym for the “Federation of European Screen Printers Associations”, FESPA today represents a global network of national associations spanning screen, digital, and textile printing.

Organised annually by FESPA Global Events, the exhibition rotates between various European cities. Whether hosted in Amsterdam, Munich, Madrid, or Berlin, this change of location brings a dynamic and international character to the event, creating opportunities for both regional and global exchange.

As a specialised platform, the FESPA Global Print Expo offers industry professionals in-depth insights into current trends, technological innovations, and future-oriented market developments – from traditional screen printing and digital large-format solutions to advanced textile applications. Innovation is a central theme: the new SmartHub, part of the Personalisation Experience, showcases how smart manufacturing and on-demand production are reshaping the print industry. Visitors can explore cutting-edge, resource-efficient production methods through the Smart Factory Trail.

The exhibition's content stands out for its diversity and relevance. On display are printing machines, inks, software solutions, textile finishing technologies, and sustainable practices across the entire production chain. Exhibitors represent a broad range of industries – including signage, interior design, fashion, and packaging. The visitor profile is equally diverse, featuring print service providers, brand owners, designers, retailers, and decision-makers seeking innovative solutions, new business models, or strategic partnerships.

Program highlights include the World Wrap Masters Europe and its international final, a competition in vehicle wrapping. Complementing the exhibition are inspiring expert talks, hands-on workshops, the FESPA Awards honouring creative excellence, and the Sustainability Spotlight, which focuses on environmentally responsible production.

As part of a global event portfolio, the FESPA Global Print Expo is a hub for international knowledge-sharing and a driver of continued development within the print sector.

Whether in a vibrant city like Berlin or the innovative setting of a venue in Amsterdam, each location is well-connected, easily accessible, and often reflects the creative spirit of the industry itself. Every visit becomes not only informative but also inspiring.

The FESPA Global Print Expo in Berlin took place from Tuesday, 06. May to Friday, 09. May 2025.
