Ligna 2025
LIGNA celebrates its 50th anniversary

LIGNA’s origins date back to 1950, when it was the first “Woodworking Machinery Group Show” at the “German Industrial Trade Fair in Hanover”, covering 2,780 square meters. In 1955, the area increased to 8,000 square meters, and by 1965, 22,500 square meters were already occupied.

From May 28 to June 3, 1975, LIGNA celebrated its premiere in Hanover as an independent “International Trade Fair for Machinery and Equipment for the Woodworking Industry”. The event featured 720 exhibitors, with 50 percent from abroad, occupying 60,000 square meters. Since then, LIGNA has evolved into an established and pioneering event within its sector, attracting both exhibitors and visitors. It is widely recognized as a heavyweight in the capital goods industry within the international trade fair context.
