IAA TRANSPORTATION 2026
Exhibition stand planning for IAA TRANSPORTATION 2026
IAA TRANSPORTATION 2026 runs from 15 to 20 September on the Deutsche Messe exhibition grounds in Hannover. The organiser is the German Association of the Automotive Industry, Verband der Automobilindustrie e.V. (VDA). The separate press day is 14 September; it is not the first general visitor day.
IAA TRANSPORTATION is the current name of the former IAA Nutzfahrzeuge. The event adopted its new name and broader transport and logistics concept in 2022.
The event covers commercial vehicles, transport and logistics. A stand for this audience may combine a vehicle or component display with screens, technical information and meetings. The space required for an exhibit and its delivery should be established before the layout is fixed.
Plan the display and the conversations together
Consider the sightlines around the exhibit, the position from which a presenter will explain it and the route visitors will use. Technical information should be readable near the relevant product. If customers need a longer discussion, provide a meeting area that does not compete with the main presentation.
For vehicles and heavy components, check the exact dimensions, delivery method and relevant venue conditions. Power, demonstrations and any additional services require a project-specific assessment. They should not be assumed to be included merely because the exhibition space has been booked.
From brief to installation
Total Concept can help develop a stand brief and discuss design, construction, graphics, transport and installation as agreed. Share the organiser’s current documents together with the booked plan and your product list. Installation access and technical approvals must be arranged against those documents.
For official participation and visitor information, consult IAA TRANSPORTATION. Total Concept is an independent stand builder and is not the event organiser. Event information checked on 13 September 2026.
