Chillventa 2026 will take place at Exhibition Centre Nuremberg on 13–15 October 2026, with the Chillventa CONGRESS opening the day before on 12 October, bringing together refrigeration, air conditioning, ventilation, and heat pump professionals from across the globe.
The 2026 edition expands on its predecessor: Hall 1 has been added to the exhibition footprint, and the display area already booked by exhibitors exceeds the total recorded at Chillventa 2024 — when 1,010 companies from 49 countries filled the halls and drew 33,076 trade visitors. International participation remains a defining feature, with 74 percent of exhibitors and 57 percent of visitors coming from outside Germany in 2024.
The Chillventa CONGRESS and four specialist forums will again cover refrigeration technology, heat pumps in commercial and industrial applications, low-GWP refrigerants, F-gas regulation, PFAS, digitalisation, and the circular economy. A Call for Presentations for the CONGRESS and forums is due to be published shortly, allowing industry specialists to submit proposals for talks on the latest developments and best practices. The 2024 programme featured more than 250 presentations across the four-day event.
Refrigeration businesses, air conditioning and heat pump contractors, manufacturers, system integrators, building services designers, and specialist distributors are the primary audience. Alongside the main exhibition, Chillventa also operates a year-round digital knowledge platform with more than 500 presentations and videos available via its YouTube channel and Expert Insights section.
