FSB Cologne: The industry meeting place for open space planning, sports facility construction and movement areas

Creating open space and balance between work and leisure, urban areas and green nature, classic sports and individual lifestyle sports. These are the special challenges facing decision-makers from municipalities, public space planners and urban or neighbourhood developers today. At the same time, the facilities should be inclusive, safe, sustainable, age-appropriate and barrier-free.

Trade visitors will find solutions for these requirements in the Open Spaces theme world. International exhibitors present their innovative concepts and multifunctional products here. They offer innovative playground equipment as well as outdoor fitness equipment and demonstrate their expertise in playground planning, landscape architecture, street furniture or urban design.

In cooperation with STADTundRAUM, BSFH - Bundesverband Spielgeräte- und Freizeitanlagen-Hersteller (German Association of Playground and Leisure Equipment Manufacturers) and the exhibitors, forward-looking planning approaches will be presented at the leading global trade fair and discussed with well-known players. This is where the leading industrial companies meet the appropriate decision-makers from municipalities, administration and urban planning.

Planning, building and managing sports facilities nowadays poses major challenges for the project partners involved. New social trends towards individualisation in the sports and leisure sector, the increasing importance of health and exercise, climate change as well as high demands on safety and hygiene require sustainable, energy-efficient and practicable solutions.

At the leading global trade fair for the sports facility sector, exhibitors from Germany, Europe, the USA and Asia are addressing these requirements. At FSB, they present their future-oriented solutions for planning and managing existing sports and exercise infrastructures, those that are to be converted or newly built. They offer approaches for environmentally friendly, safe and inclusive sports facilities based on innovative materials, processes and technologies.

Operators, municipalities, planners, investors and decision-makers looking for the right project partner will find what they are looking for in the Sports theme world. They will discover the latest trends in sports facility construction in the professional event programme and in exciting special presentations. They can talk to all the important industry players and discuss sustainable solutions with experts in workshops.

Nowadays, exercise and sport are increasingly taking place away from club structures. People want to train flexibly and use the available sports facilities individually - according to their lifestyle. Physical activity facilities must therefore be multifunctional and accessible. They should allow both classic sports such as football and trend sports such as yoga in order to promote the joy of movement.

At FSB, the movement theme world is dedicated to precisely such ideas and solutions. The leading global trade fair for the sports and movement industry is the ideal platform for jointly developing and tackling new planning concepts. Experts and decision-makers from sports authorities, clubs and schools will find experienced project partners here who can support them in the planning, operation and maintenance of all kinds of movement areas.

Whether it's exercise trails, school playgrounds, exercise parks or the equipment of sports halls - at FSB the decisive impulses are set to enable individual training and play in public spaces. Here, trade visitors discover new concepts and approaches to solutions as well as products that they can try out on site.
