The „ambiente“ is a premier international consumer goods fair held annually in Frankfurt am Main. Organised by Messe Frankfurt GmbH, it serves as an exclusive platform for trade visitors, offering a comprehensive overview of the global consumer goods market.
The fair is divided into various sections. „Dining“ focuses on tableware kitchen and household products. „Living“ showcases diverse styles for living furnishing and decorating. „Giving“ highlights gifts and personal accessories including high-quality stationery and school supplies. The innovative „Working“ section explores the workspaces of tomorrow. Finally, the future fields of HoReCa and Contract Business are highlighted as potential growth areas.
A distinctive feature of Ambiente is its integration of sustainability, New Work, design, lifestyle, Future Retail and Digital Expansion of Trade. These themes permeate the entire event reflecting current trends and developments.
Since 2023, Ambiente has been held concurrently with Christmasworld and Creativeworld, creating new synergies. This includes the expansion and merger of the Global Sourcing area of the three leading fairs into a unified offering. This new format provides an even broader platform for networking and finding new business partners.
Messe Frankfurt, with its modern infrastructure and central location, offers ideal conditions for exhibitors and visitors from around the world. Here the consumer goods market is redefined and the future of commerce is actively shaped.
The ambiente in Frankfurt took place from Friday 6 February to Tuesday 10 February 2026. The next show will take place from 29.01.2027 – 02.02.2027.
