drupa 2028

The upcoming drupa 2028 is scheduled for 9 - 17 May. Being a crucial part of its new format, the reduced duration of the event in 2028 will result in both optimised efficiency and sharper focus. Meanwhile, all key features that define drupa as a must-visit platform for the printing and packaging sectors will be maintained. The nine-day trade show for printing technologies will take place at Messe Dusseldorf. It will receive more than 1,600 exhibitors and approximately 170,000 professional visitors.

In 2028, drupa Dusseldorf will demonstrate advanced pre-press and print solutions, high-quality materials, as well as innovative post-press, converting and packaging equipment. Numerous presentations will reveal the latest in autonomous printing, AI-driven systems, 3D printing technologies, and more. Services in areas such as R&D, certification and testing, corporate finance and infrastructure will also be available. Further details regarding the format and programme of drupa 2028 will be released in 2025.

With companies from over 170 countries sending their representatives to the printing innovations trade fair in Dusseldorf, the drupa 2028 dates will be extremely busy for hotels in the city and its surroundings. This is why early booking is highly recommended. To assist drupa participants, we at ExpoBeds have arranged special room rates at hotels near Messe Dusseldorf and in other attractive locations.
