About This Show
IFA Berlin is one of the world's leading trade shows for consumer electronics and home appliances, held annually at Messe Berlin. The 2027 edition runs September 3-7, 2027, preceded by Media Days on September 1-2. IFA is where the consumer-technology and appliance industries present their autumn product lineups, spanning televisions and audio, smartphones and computing, home appliances, smart-home technology, robotics and mobility.
The 2026 edition drew 240,000 visitors from 155 countries and more than 2,000 exhibitors. IFA combines a large public-facing exhibition with a trade and media program, including the IFA Retail Leaders Summit, the IFA Global Markets sourcing platform and the IFA NEXT startup and research area, giving it a distinctive dual character among major electronics events.
For exhibitors, IFA offers direct access to European retail buyers and consumer media at a pivotal point in the sales calendar; for visitors, it is a chance to see new products first-hand and compare brands across categories. Its long history, scale, and Berlin location make it a fixture of the global consumer-technology calendar.
