Messe Düsseldorf builds its year around a small number of very large trade shows: boot in January, interpack, drupa and MEDICA in November. When one of them runs, hotel capacity and staffing capacity in the city tighten at the same time, and late bookings become expensive.
Our Düsseldorf pool of 3,200+ registered students is booked early for those weeks, so tell us your dates as soon as you have them. Quotes come back within hours, teams are briefed before the first shift, and all staff live locally, which removes travel and accommodation costs.
You can also book individual trade fair hostesses for your booth in Düsseldorf through ucm - from reception to multilingual stand support.
As a trade fair agency, ucm provides stand personnel, hostesses and setup helpers from a single source - one contact for briefing, scheduling and invoicing.
Where our staff work in Düsseldorf: the Messe halls at Stockum with their north and south entrances, the CCD Congress Center for conference programmes, retail spaces along the Königsallee, and Altstadt venues used for exhibitor evenings.
What the big shows demand: MEDICA and drupa run long days with international visitors, so we plan shift handovers rather than single long shifts. Roles include hostesses, stand staff, ticketing and cloakroom cover, runners, lead capture and set-up and dismantling helpers.
A no-show on the first fair day, more visitors than expected or a missing language profile: because our staff live in Düsseldorf, replacements are possible even while the fair is running. Quotes arrive within hours, staffing follows within days.
When should we book trade fair staff in Düsseldorf? Bookings concentrate on boot in January, interpack and drupa, and MEDICA in November, when the whole city fills up. The earlier the request, the larger the selection in the local pool - short-notice requests are still staffed within days.
Which roles does the trade fair staff in Düsseldorf cover? Reception and accreditation, registration, multilingual booth support plus set-up and dismantling. State the roles and languages you need in the request.
What does trade fair staff in Düsseldorf cost per day? The hourly rate starts at 27.50 euros, so an eight-hour fair day starts at around 220 euros per person. Only booked hours are invoiced, with no base fee - see the price overview and the article What does trade fair staff cost per day?
