VOGEL Launches Partnership for a Trade Show in Würzburg Focusing on Automotive Glass, Smart Repair, and Car Care

Vogel Event Solutions (VES), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Vogel Communications Group (VCG), will launch another new trade show in 2027 : CAR360, focusing on automotive glass, smart repair, car care, and car detailing, will take place on November 20, 2027, at the Vogel Convention Center in Würzburg. This is a collaboration with the two associations, the Federal Association of Automotive Glass Installers (BVA) and the Federal Association of Dent Removal and Hail Repair (BVAT).

“VOGEL has been working with leading media outlets in the automotive market for over 110 years. With this industry expertise and our central location in the heart of Germany, we offer the industry an attractive platform and are the ideal partner,” explains Wolfgang Thiel, Director of Product Management Events at VES: “The focus of this gathering for industry professionals and experts is on hands-on experience—in other words, actually trying things out.”

In addition to the latest trends and technologies, there will be exhibition booths featuring live demonstrations and a supporting program of expert presentations. A networking event the evening before rounds out the program for exhibitors and visitors alike. The organizers are expecting 50 exhibitors and around 1,000 visitors. A one-day ticket costs 99 euros, and the evening program costs 49 euros.
