Our parallel trade fair Wild & Fisch has merged spatially with FORST live this year. In the future, there will therefore be only one name "FORST live, Fair for Technology, Energy and Hunting".

FORST live is the leading demo show for forestry technology, renewable energy and hunting in Germany. In 2023, more than 340 exhibitors from 15 nations presented their comprehensive range of products and services on the 46,000 m² outdoor area of Messe Offenburg, as well as in the 6,000 m2 Baden Arena. A total of 33,411 visitors from Germany and abroad took advantage of the trade fair to obtain practical information and advice on numerous further developments and innovations at machine demonstrations and in specialist forums.

Decision-makers from the forestry and agricultural sectors, the landscaping industry and the municipal sector, as well as trade visitors from the construction industry, the energy sector, the timber trade, hunters, the public sector and the sawmill industry were among the visitors, along with interested end users.
