The aquanale trade fair is a leading international event for the Sauna·Pool·Wellness industry. Organized by Koelnmesse, it takes place every two years in Cologne, Germany, bringing together experts, manufacturers, planners, and operators from around the world.
What Makes aquanale Special
At aquanale, visitors explore a wide range of innovations related to swimming pools, wellness, spa, and saunas. The event is structured into six themed worlds, covering private pools, public pool technology, sauna and spa design, outdoor living, digital control systems, and more.
The trade fair highlights digital waterpark technology, intelligent control systems, and energy-saving pool solutions.
Special Events and Congress
One of the fair’s previous major highlights has been the Digital Waterpark, organized by the European Waterpark Association (EWA). It showcases smart, data-driven technologies for leisure pools—such as automated maintenance or digital visitor management.
Another centerpiece is the Sauna from Finland segment, which offers a lounge, design exhibits, and talks about authentic Finnish sauna culture, rituals, and quality standards.
Additionally, aquanale hosts the International Swimming Pool & Wellness Forum (ISWF). Over the three days, experts debate topics like decarbonisation, digital pool operations, and future wellness trends.
Who Should Attend
The event attracts a broad professional audience: pool builders, wellness operators, spa designers, facility managers, architects, and engineers. With about 300 exhibitors from 35+ countries , aquanale offers unmatched international reach.
