Tickets to drupa on sale as world tour starts in Mexico City

The drupa 2020 ticketshop opened last week, and the drupa world tour 2019/20 has just begun in Mexico City.

After Mexico, the tour will continue at close intervals until spring 2020. In September alone, seven more conferences and events will follow in Ecuador, Peru, Colombia, Canada, Brazil, Chile and Argentina. By April 2020, events will follow in twelve Asian countries, the USA, Eastern Europe, some EU countries and North Africa. A total of 35 trips to 27 countries worldwide are currently planned. The organisers of the world tour in the run-up to drupa 2020 are Messe Düsseldorf GmbH and PrintPromotion GmbH. 

"We are looking forward to exciting meetings with industry experts, journalists and representatives of local media partners, industry and trade associations," says drupa Director Sabine Geldermann. High-ranking delegations consisting of the CEOs of various printing press manufacturers and leading representatives of PrintPromotion and Messe Düsseldorf will present the most important trends in printing and paper technology, present innovations in the graphics industry and packaging printing, and will inform about innovative applications in the field of industrial and functional printing. Of course, they will shed light on the status of preparations for drupa 2020.

"Our aim is to arouse some fascination for the applications and possibilities of modern printing technologies in an increasingly networked world and to make experts want to visit drupa in Düsseldorf from 16 to 26 June 2020," underlines the Managing Director of PrintPromotion GmbH and VDMA's Printing and Paper Technology Association, Dr. Markus Heering.

 Many of the close to 1,800 exhibitors at drupa 2020 will highlight corresponding approaches.

"The exhibition grounds are almost fully booked. The current booking level is above that of the 2016 edition," confirms Sabine. The positive booking situation clearly underlines the diversification of the product portfolios of exhibitors from around 50 nations - including around 400 new exhibitors along the entire value chain - which they see as a further indicator that the industry is conquering new territory and tapping new growth potential.
