Messe Dortmund has been organizing some of the world's most relevant trade fairs in various specialist areas for decades - both with a B2B and B2C orientation, on site and off its own premises. These include INTERMODELLBAU, the world's largest trade fair for model making and model sports, or JAGD & HUND, Europe's largest hunting fair. Extensive expertise combined with know-how about the needs of the relevant target groups and a feel for future trends make Messe Dortmund a qualified organizer of CREATIVA – and a reliable partner for exhibitors and visitors.

Voices on CREATIVA

  • Elke Dohmann Head of Marketing DORTEX mbH

    Why is CREATIVA so important for us? As a label manufacturer with an international online shop, it opens the door to the creative target group. Here, for once, we are not digital, but very personal. Being able to hold different materials and products in our hands and meet the people who make up our family business increases our credibility with visitors to the fair. This also has an effect beyond the CREATIVA. Along the way, we receive valuable feedback, absorb new trends and make valuable contacts with other exhibitors.

    CREATIVA is for me and my team from Der Perlenstand, 

    the most important fair in the annual calendar.

    For more than 30 years, we have been looking forward to the 

    of the familiar atmosphere in the exhibition halls 

    and the particularly interested, creative customers,

    begins when we register for the fair.

    Knowing that we will be exhibiting at the CREATIVA

    gives us that special push 

    to buy new products and to create jewellery 

    with the matching creative sets.

    When we were exhibitors for the first time 13 years ago, I was proud to be involved in the largest European creative fair. It has remained that way until today.

    The Orga team makes sure everything runs smoothly, does everything to keep us exhibitors happy and helps where it's needed.

    And the many interested, nice customers are just great!

    We are looking forward to the next CREATIVA.

  • Warning! Misleading Listing Offers

    Unfortunately, it happens again and again that exhibitors receive misleading listing offers in order to be included in so-called trade fair and exhibitor directories. Well-known companies and online directories are art-living.info, Expo Guide, International Fairs Directory, Handwerk-Markt.com, Handcraft-market.com and Construct Data Publisher. Messe Dortmund GmbH expressly states that it has no connection whatsoever to "Expo Guide", "art-living.info", "FAIR GUIDE", "International Fairs Directory", "Handwerk-Markt.com" and "Handcraft-market .com" stands.


    We expressly distance ourselves from the business practices of these companies. In most cases, these are unauthorized publishers who finance themselves through fee-based entries in various directories. However, the impression is often given that the offer is free of charge. The amount and duration of the payment obligation can only be found in the small print of the terms and conditions - which often comes as a nasty surprise.


    You can make entries in the official media of our events via our Online Service Center (OSC). The access data for the OSC will be sent to you by our trade fair team together with the stand confirmation on stationery from Messe Dortmund GmbH or by e-mail with the appropriate signature.


    You can get more detailed information on the AUMA website, Exhibition and Trade Fair Committee of the German Industry, or from Ms. Silvia Bauermeister Telephone: 030/24000-103, e-mail: s.bauermeister[at]auma[dot]de .
