Programming takes place over the course of five days once every four days and editions coincide with oils + fats. Messe Munich GmbH performs a dual role as both the official organiser and the host venue.
Professional visitors and the public are both admitted to the event. Doors open every day at 09:00 am and close at 18:00 pm, though these hours are subject to change as the event approaches.
There’s more to Drinktec than just the rich product diversity. There’s a long history to this event, as it started as part of the Deutsche Brauerei Ausstellung before separating into Interbau and then its own separate entity altogether. It’s this history that has made Drinktec the host for the German Amateur Brewers Championships. In addition, trade visitors have access to great programming items like the Place2beer, the Innovation Flow Lounge, and PRO FachHANDEL.
Drinktec Edition 2022
Drinktec 2022 and the concurring oils+fats 2022 took place as face-to-face trade exhibitions between September 12th and September 16th, 2022. Due to Germany removing its domestic restrictions, the trade fairs did not feature Covid-19 safety measures. 1,002 exhibitors from 55 countries and approximately 50,000 visitors from 169 countries travelled to Messe Munich. Over 70% of the exhibitors and 65% of the visitors were from abroad. South Africa, Brazil, Japan, Mexico, and India accounted for around 40% of the attending. Pentair Industrial Solutions, Sidel, Krones AG, and Siemens AG were among the notable participants.
