INTERFORST 2026 will take place from October 15 to 18, 2026, in Munich, Germany. The international key trade fair brings together the complete forestry value chain, covering forest regeneration, forestry operations, machinery, digital technologies and wood energy. Held under the motto “Shaping the forest together. Utilize diversity. Secure the future,” the event connects forestry businesses, equipment manufacturers, specialist suppliers, researchers and public-sector professionals seeking technologies and practical solutions for the future management of forests.
The exhibition covers reforestation, forest maintenance, harvesting technologies, transport and logistics, forestry machinery, equipment, digital systems and technologies for the energetic use of wood. International market leaders and specialised suppliers present solutions for both operational forestry and longer-term forest management. Dedicated demonstration areas allow selected manufacturers to show machinery in live operation, giving professional visitors opportunities to compare equipment and discuss technical requirements directly with suppliers.
INTERFORST 2026 also places strong emphasis on the structural challenges facing forests and the forestry workforce. Its four key themes focus on healthy forests for the future, people working within the sector, new approaches to forestry technology, and digitalisation across forestry and wood. The event connects business, science, policy and practical forestry, combining technology sourcing with professional exchange and discussions around climate resilience, workforce requirements, sustainable forest management and the increasing use of digital tools throughout the sector.
