The next European Taxi Fair will take place from November 6 to 7, 2026 — once again in Hall 1 at the Koelnmesse grounds in Cologne-Deutz.

On February 20, 2025, Koelncongress GmbH, represented by its Managing Director Ralf Nüsser, and the Specialist Association for Passenger Transport North Rhine Taxi Rental Cars e.V., represented by its Managing Director Dr. Michael Stehr, signed the contract for the European Taxi Fair 2026. The Chairman of the Specialist Association for Passenger Transport North Rhine Taxi Rental Cars e.V. and organizer of the fair Markus Gossmann, commented:

"The European Taxi Fair continued its success story in 2024. The trade fair location in Cologne proved itself once again. Particularly Hall 1, with its large window areas, received much praise from exhibitors and visitors. From the association's point of view, the collaboration with the Koelncongress team before and during the fair was highly commendable. We look forward to continuing the success story of the Taxi Fair together with Koelncongress in 2026."

“We are pleased that we were able to once again convince the Professional Association for Passenger Transport North Rhine Taxi Rental Cars e.V. of the trade fair location Cologne,” said Ralf Nüsser.

The taxi and rental car industry will also discuss important topics at the next European Taxi Fair, such as the latest developments in passenger transport law, propulsion systems and energy supply, the closer integration of the industry into public transport, and inclusive journeys with converted vehicles. The raffle, well-known among business owners in the industry, with a car equipped for taxi service as the main prize, is also planned to be held again in 2026. The lectures and panel discussions at the next European Taxi Fair are to be recorded again.

The coverage of the two previous European Taxi Fairs in 2022 and 2024 is accessible.
