If you want to play an active role in shaping the future of our industries, tap into international markets and experience technological trends first-hand, come to Düsseldorf in April for the world’s leading trade fairs, wire and Tube!
This is where the global experts from the wire, cable, tube and pipe industries gather for their premier international innovation hub. Decision-makers, innovation leaders and newcomers will come together over five days at Düsseldorf Fairgrounds.
“Düsseldorf is the place where investments are prepared, partnerships are formed and global networks are established. “With our high-calibre supporting programme of conferences and forums – ranging from hydrogen, e-mobility, AI and robotics to the High Potential Day and the ecoMetals initiative – we create genuine added value far beyond the trade fair business,” says Daniel Ryfisch, Director of Metal Forming & Fabrication Technologies at Messe Düsseldorf.
From 13 to 17 April 2026, the world’s leading trade fairs wire and Tube will open their doors, transforming the Düsseldorf Fairgrounds into the international hub for the industries. With around 2,610 exhibitors from 65 countries across 118,500 square metres of exhibition space, they cover the entire industrial value chain – from machinery and equipment to innovative materials and high-quality end products.
The focus is on modern technologies for wire, cable, tube and pipe production, efficient production processes and current applications.
Thematic highlights range from stainless steel and special materials, through hydrogen technologies, plastic pipes and cutting and severing technologies, to e-mobility, fibre-optic technology, fastening and joining technology, spring manufacturing and high-performance mesh welding systems with live demonstrations.
A particular highlight of wire 2026 is the new World of Cables in hall 13: for the first time, the end product – the cable – takes centre stage as a key component of modern energy, communications and mobility infrastructures. wire occupies halls 9 to 17. Tube takes place in halls 1 to 7.0 and covers the entire spectrum from pipe manufacturing, processing and trade, through machinery and equipment, to plastic pipes. Curious?
