An event week in Cologne can move from a Koelnmesse hall to the LANXESS Arena and end in an Old Town brewery. The staffing profile changes with every step of that programme, and so does the level of formality your guests expect.
We cover it with reception and check-in teams, hosts and hostesses, cloakroom staff and catering service from more than 3,900 registered students in the city. All of them are local, briefed in advance, and available at short notice in most weeks of the year.
ucm also provides setup and dismantling crews for events and trade fairs in Cologne at short notice - including scheduling and replacement management.
Where our staff work in Cologne: the Koelnmesse halls and the adjacent congress rooms, the LANXESS Arena, hotel conference floors and the Old Town breweries used for less formal company evenings.
What is recorded: headcount, roles, shift times and hourly pay at or above the 2026 German statutory minimum wage of €13.90. Carnival and gamescom weeks are the tightest in the calendar, and multilingual staff can be requested for international trade fairs.
Kölnmesse, LANXESS Arena, RTL Group
imm cologne in January, spoga+gafa in June, gamescom in August and Anuga in October, with carnival in February or March a separate peak.
