Registrations for EXPO REAL, one of Europe’s leading real estate trade fairs, are slightly up four months before it starts, on the figure this time last year. This year, the fair, being held from October 6 to 8, 2025, at the Munich exhibition centre, will once again bring together leading players in the real estate, finance and investments sector, and provide orientation as well as new impetus for future trends.
Claudia Boymanns, Exhibition Director of EXPO REAL, says: “Alongside well-known names, there will also be several new exhibitors this year. We are also pleased with how well the innovative Transform & Beyond exhibition area has been received. Bundling activities in one place makes it easier for exhibitors and visitors to obtain information and exchange ideas.”
Around 40,000 experts from the real estate industry, and representatives from cities, countries and regions are expected to attend over the three days of the fair. This year, EXPO REAL is focusing on the real estate topics of housing, logistics, retail and hotels. “As Europe’s largest trade fair for real estate and investments, EXPO REAL offers both a variety of insights into the markets and ideal conditions for efficient networking with leading and new players in the international real estate industry,” says Boymanns.
Grand Plaza, housing and EXPO REAL FORUM, new to Hall B3—TECH TALK STAGE in Hall B2
An important change at this year’s trade fair is the newly designed Hall B3. This is where the Grand Plaza is now located as the central meeting point for everything to do with retail property and the EXPO REAL FORUM. A special area focusing on housing with its forum and an exhibition on affordable and ecologically efficient living is also planned. The TECH TALK STAGE is moving from Hall A3 to Hall B2.
Top-class conference program offers orientation
In addition to a comprehensive market overview and the potential for successful transactions, visitors to EXPO REAL can once again look forward to an attractive program of discussions and lectures. On a total of nine stages and in numerous conference rooms, international experts from the real estate industry will provide insights into the current market situation and discuss solutions for the future.
Transform & Beyond: second edition for innovation and the future
The Transform & Beyond innovation platform at EXPO REAL will enter its second round in 2025, confirming its role as a forward-looking forum for the industry. More than 60 companies have already confirmed their participation. In Hall A3, the focus will be on decarbonization, smart building technologies, digital district solutions, as well as AI and robotics. The Transform & Beyond Stage and the Decarb Arena will remain central stages and once again offer space for information, discussions, lectures, and an exchange of practical solutions for digitalisation and transformation.
