Exhibitors will have the opportunity to showcase their products to a targeted audience, network with potential clients, and increase their visibility in the fire protection and security markets.

Plan your trip
Best day to visit: Thursday 27 May 2027 (day 2)
The second day is when all halls and the open-air equipment display run at full strength: exhibitors have finished setting up, technical staff are on the stands, and conference and expert sessions are in mid-run rather than winding down. Wednesday 26 May works well for badge collection and first-pass meetings, while Saturday 29 May is the shortest day with some exhibitors dismantling and thinner attendance — plan your most important supplier meetings for Thursday and leave Friday for follow-ups and site discussions.
Check passport validity and Schengen entry rules — Confirm your passport is valid for the required period and check whether your nationality needs a Schengen short-stay visa for Czechia.
Apply for a visa or book an embassy appointment if required — Use the Czech Ministry of Foreign Affairs visa pages; appointments can take weeks, so start early if you need a type C visa.
Book flights to Brno-Turany (BRQ) or via Vienna or Prague — Brno-Turany is closest to the venue; Vienna and Prague airports connect to Brno main station by train or bus in roughly 1.5 to 2.5 hours.
Reserve a hotel near Brno Exhibition Centre or in the city centre — Fair-week rooms around Vystaviste sell out early; the Quality Hotel Brno Exhibition Centre is on the grounds, city-centre hotels are 10-15 minutes away by tram.
Register online for your visitor pass or ticket — Register through the BVV e-shop or registration portal; tickets at the venue are paid in cash or card in Czech crowns only.
Download the hall plan and show programme — Map the PYROS, ISET and IDET halls and open-air space F so you can plan a route across the Brno Exhibition Centre.
Pre-schedule meetings with target exhibitors — Contact fire equipment, security technology and counter-terrorism suppliers in advance and agree meeting slots.
Shortlist sessions and expert talks — Pick the programme items most relevant to fire protection, integrated rescue services and cyber security, and block time around them.
Plan local transport to the venue — Tram 1 and trolleybus 25, 26 and 37 or bus 52 stop at Vystaviste main entrance; bus 44 serves Velodrom for hall E.
Pack for mild, showery spring weather — Expect 19-21 C days and 9-10 C nights with about 13 rainy days in May; bring layers, a rain jacket and comfortable shoes.
Prepare documents and meeting materials — Carry registration confirmation, hotel booking, passport and printed or digital notes for supplier meetings.
Travel day and badge collection — Arrive early on the first show day for badge collection and security screening; gates and entrances are marked on the venue map.
