Head of FESPA Global Print Expo, Michael Ryan talks to Eye on Display about FESPA Berlin coming up in May
FESPA Global Print Expo 2025 is just two months away and we’re looking forward to welcoming a host of Visionaries to the Messe Berlin, Germany, from 6 – 9 May!
Whether you want to develop a deeper understanding of the future of the print industry, discover the latest advancements in digital signage or explore how you can integrate personalisation into your business offering, then FESPA 2025 is the place to be!
Preparations are well underway and the exhibition is set to highlight new and existing opportunities in wide format, digital, screen and textile printing, signage, personalisation and more.

An insight into our strapline
We’re thrilled to be back in Berlin for this year’s event with our new strapline ‘Where Visionaries Meet’, which shines a spotlight on our forward-thinking FESPA community.
The co-located events will be a pivotal meeting point for forward-thinking Visionaries to connect and share their thoughts on the future of the industry; uncover key trends; and explore an array of new technologies, solutions, media and consumables across specialty print and signage.
I am looking forward to networking with our community and developing my own perspective once again at the Berlin event this May!
A deep dive into signage and personalisation
Located across two halls (Hall 3.2 and Hall 4.2), European Sign Expo will unite like-minded signage professionals from across the industry. The co-located event will showcase the latest innovations across channel lettering, digital signage, dimensional signage, engraving and etching, LED and sign solutions from leading brands and suppliers such as Cosign, Domino Sign, EFKA, LucoLED and Sign-Ware GmbH & Co KG.
Returning for its third edition, Personalisation Experience will demonstrate how visitors can unlock the potential of personalisation. Visitors can also network with a host of designers, personalised software companies, packaging solution providers, and more. They can also attend a four day conference programme, discover the latest customisation-enabling solutions and discuss the significance of an individualised customer experience, from start to finish.
The FESPA feature programme
This year, World Wrap Masters and the FESPA Awards will return for 2025.
The action-packed World Wrap Masters competition is back for 2025. For the first two days of the event, regional competitors will go head-to-head in a series of timed rounds, wrapping both vehicles and surprise objects. On the final two days of the event, the winners will then battle to be crowned World Wrap Masters 2025 champion. Alongside this, visitors to the feature can also attend a series of live training workshops and demonstrations.
Celebrating excellence and innovation across print and signage, the FESPA Awards 2025 are also returning to this year’s event. Delegates can explore this year’s shortlisted entries across 18 different categories including print, signage, vehicle wrapping, packaging, special effects, garment and textiles and more. The winners will then be announced at the official awards ceremony on Wednesday 7th May.
From our exhibitor line up to our comprehensive feature programme, FESPA Global Print Expo and its co-located events are all set to become the ultimate meeting points for Visionaries to connect and exchange their thoughts and experiences across print, signage and personalisation. I am confident that FESPA will once again support the development of the forward-facing vision of the speciality print industry.
