maintenance Dortmund, which its organiser Easyfairs calls Germany's leading trade fair for industrial maintenance, returns to Messe Dortmund at the Westfalenhallen on Wednesday 24 and Thursday 25 February 2027, in halls 4, 6 and 7. Exhibitors range from spare parts, lubricants, tools and drive technology to condition monitoring, CMMS software, predictive maintenance and on site industrial services, and the visitors are maintenance managers and engineers from machine building, chemicals and pharma, metalworking, automotive and many other industries. It runs alongside PUMPS & VALVES, LOGISTICS & AUTOMATION and EMPACK, and one ticket covers all of them. In 2026 the maintenance and PUMPS & VALVES pairing drew 7,066 visitors and nearly 330 exhibitors, both records. The fairground is a 10 minute U-Bahn ride south of Dortmund Hauptbahnhof, so maintenance Dortmund hotels in the Kreuzviertel by the Westfalenhallen and in the city centre both work well. The organiser warns that hotels near the venue book up quickly during the show. This page shows live Dortmund hotel rates for your dates; your fair ticket is registered separately with the organiser.
