Imaging World 2027

The Imaging World exhibition is an annual event dedicated to photography, video, and content creation. It has established itself as an important platform for both professional and aspiring visual creators. The name Imaging World symbolizes not just an exhibition, but a holistic experience focused on images in all their forms: from capture and editing to publishing visual content. As the spiritual successor to the renowned Photokina, the last of which took place in Cologne, Imaging World builds on a strong legacy, reinterpreting it to meet modern needs: relevant, practice-oriented, and tailored to the demands of today's content creators. The event is organized by RINGFOTO GmbH & Co. KG, Europe's largest photo goods sales group. However, RINGFOTO is not just a purchasing cooperative, but a driving force in the industry and a center for innovation. With Imaging World, the group has created a forward-looking event format that attracts both photography and video enthusiasts, as well as influencers, bloggers, and creative agencies. At the heart of the exhibition are the latest camera technologies, lenses, lighting systems, and smart accessories, complemented by software solutions, digital editing tools, and platforms for publishing and monetizing content. The exhibition covers the entire spectrum of the imaging industry: from traditional photography to social media content and immersive visual experiences. Visitors can expect a diverse and interactive program: live studios and testing zones invite participants to try out the latest equipment, while hands-on workshops offer expert knowledge directly from professionals. Special networking zones facilitate valuable connections between creatives, manufacturers, brands, and service providers. Inspiring product demonstrations and expert presentations round out the exhibition experience. Exhibitors represent a wide range of sectors, including camera technology, video production, lighting, software development, mobile content, retail accessories, as well as agencies and service providers. The primary audience includes professionals and semi-professionals from creative industries, media production, and marketing. Many young creators and startups also use Imaging World to expand their networks and familiarize themselves with the latest trends. We invite you to participate in the Imaging World exhibition and become part of this exciting event!
