Munich Metro
The Bauma exhibition is served by the U2 underground metro line, part of Munich’s extensive public transport network.
The Messestadt West station is at the main entrance to the trade fair and is convenient for the lower numbered exhibitions halls (A1 to A3, B0 to B3, C1 – C3 etc.).
The Messestadt Ost station is more useful for the outside exhibition areas and the higher numbered halls (A4 to A6, B3-6 and C3-6 etc.).
There is also car parking available at the trade fair centre and a steady flow of taxis. But beware, the huge numbers of visitors to Bauma can lead to heavy traffic and delays, particularly at peak times.
