Hispack, Fira de Barcelona's trade fair for packaging, processing and logistics, holds its 20th edition from Tuesday 4 to Friday 7 May 2027 in Halls 2 and 3 at Fira Barcelona Gran Via. It runs every three years, so 2027 is the first edition since 2024, and it shares the dates with Graphispag, the graphic arts fair, in Hall 1. The five sectors are packaging machinery and process, labelling and bottling, logistics, automation and robotics, brand packaging and industrial packaging, and the 2027 programme is built around two new areas: the Brand District in Hall 2 and the Tech & Trade District in Hall 3, with Best in Class case studies, Engineers Day and themed tours. Hispack 2024 registered 26,273 attendees and 819 exhibitors from 31 countries, and the organiser expects more than 900 exhibitors in 2027. It is a trade event for food and non food manufacturers, brand owners, engineers and buyers. The Gran Via venue is in L'Hospitalet de Llobregat, on metro line L9 Sud from the airport and on FGC trains from Plaça d'Espanya, so Hispack hotels work beside the halls, around Plaça d'Espanya, in Sants or in Eixample. This page shows live rates for your dates; your visitor accreditation is arranged with the organiser and is separate from your hotel booking.
