From 28 to 31 January 2025, Messe Essen will once again be the global meeting place for the horticultural industry.

“Endless Green Variety” is the motto under which the world's leading trade fair IPM ESSEN will bring together products, innovations and trends from all areas of the sector.

The event is accompanied by a comprehensive supporting program that offers trade visitors exciting insights, interactive experiences and extensive networking opportunities.

Four Oaks Trade Show is the UK’s leading international exhibition for the whole of commercial horticulture. From production to point-of-sale, the breadth of exhibits on display is the show’s strength, attracting a broad visitor base. The event takes place on a 23-acre nursery site in Cheshire UK, close to the Jodrell Bank Radio Telescope, covering an area of 13,000m² under glass with additional outdoor areas. Massive displays of plant material form the heart of the show, with young plant producers using the platform to launch the next season’s lines. Mature stock and specimen plants from across Europe create magnificent showcase displays. Machinery, growing media, sundries, retail products, Christmas trees and merchandise, services and practically everything the sector can use or re-sell is found on the aisles at Four Oaks. More than 35% of participating companies are from overseas. The visitor profile includes buyers from grower retailers, independent garden centres, garden centre chains, commercial growers, multiple retailers, wholesalers, mail order, online retailers, landscapers, landscape architects, garden designers, professional gardeners, groundsmen, farm shops, local authorities and florists.
