For Exhibitor
“Come curious. Leave inspired!"
The Nuremberg public fair Freizeit Messe for Leisure, Tourism & Garden achieves a harmonious interplay of the various themes with the combination of Northern Bavaria's large leisure fair and Bavaria's large indoor garden fair. Every spring, an extensive range of products for gardening, leisure, tourism, caravanning & camping and sports & outdoor is presented here. It is accompanied also by inviva, the active fair for everything that moves life.
