all about automation Hamburg, the Easyfairs trade fair for industrial automation, robotics and digitalisation in the north of Germany, returns to Hamburg Messe on Tuesday 1 and Wednesday 2 June 2027, in halls B5 and B7 by the South Entrance. It is one of a series of regional all about automation fairs that Easyfairs runs in cities such as Berlin, Düsseldorf, Friedrichshafen and Zürich, each with stands of similar size so that market leaders and regional engineering specialists meet on equal terms. In Hamburg it runs as a trio with LOGISTICS & AUTOMATION and EMPACK, and one ticket covers all three. The organiser expects around 350 exhibitors for the trio; in 2026 the three counted 344 exhibitors and 4,105 trade visitors.

Where should you eat during all about automation Hamburg?
The Messe sits right on the edge of the Schanzenviertel, so the best casual and mid-range tables are a 5-10 minute walk out the north exit; for waterfront fine dining around the Binnenalster take the U-Bahn (U1/U3, ~8 min) or a 10-minute taxi. A local fixer keeps client dinners downtown and quick working meals in the Schanze.
