Hostesses for trade fairs and congresses in Berlin
In Berlin one event is often split between an exhibition hall and a congress room, and each place calls for a different kind of attention. Tell us what happens at each point and who needs to be there. We will build a staffing proposal around that.

Reception, accreditation and stand support
The city hosts its large fairs at Messe Berlin, which brings together 27 trade fair and event halls and 190,000 square metres of event space, with the CityCube inside the same grounds for congresses and sessions.
Separate the welcome at the stand entrance, the accreditation check and the walk to a session room. Say who handles problems on the spot and which questions belong with the organiser. That split is what sets the headcount and the profile.
German and English cover most conversations in Berlin, and Spanish helps when the delegation arrives from Spain or Latin America. Tell us the language you need per position and we will confirm it against your programme.
How visitors move around Messe Berlin.
Halls and the CityCube
Messe Berlin counts 27 trade fair and event halls and 190,000 square metres of event space, with the CityCube acting as the congress venue inside the same grounds.
More than one gate
The grounds do not have a single door. Decide which entrance your guest will use and whether someone should wait there or receive them at the stand instead.
Distances inside
A hall and a session room can sit far apart. If your programme mixes a stand with a speaking slot, escorting stops being a detail.
Before the doors open
Reception starts during build up. Tell us if you want staff on those days to take in materials, suppliers or internal visits.
What you can ask for at your Berlin event.
Reception hostesses
Welcome at the stand entrance, a first filter on visitors and a record of who has already been attended to.
Accreditation and registration
Pass checks, material handover and attendee registration at a congress or a private session.
Multilingual hosts
Attention in German, English or Spanish when the stand receives delegations from several countries at once.
Stand support
Keeping the space in order, restocking material and walking visitors through to the meeting area.
Bar staff
Drinks service on the stand or at a client reception once the fair day closes.
A point of reference
Someone who collects questions from the team and sorts out what comes up without breaking into a commercial conversation.
Before you brief us.
Which venue hosts Berlin trade fairs?
Most of them take place at Messe Berlin, with 27 trade fair and event halls and 190,000 square metres of event space. The CityCube, inside the same grounds, covers the congress side.
Which languages can the staff work in?
German and English are the norm in Berlin, and we add Spanish when your team or the delegation needs it. Tell us the language per position and it is written into the proposal.
How far ahead should we ask?
It depends on the fair. At the largest ones, such as ITB or IFA, availability closes earlier, so the sooner you send dates and roles, the wider the choice.
Can you cover a stand and a room at the same time?
Yes, and in Berlin it is one of the most common setups: someone permanently on the stand and someone escorting to sessions. Tell us how many points need covering and we will split it.
