Student Day at EuroBLECH 2022 The young generation is increasingly gaining importance in the sheet metal working industry due to the digital transformation and the related changes to occupational profiles. In addition, the last few years have been challenging to get a foot in the industry due to insufficient in person events and networking opportunities. Therefore, EuroBLECH offers students the opportunity to visit EuroBLECH free of charge. On Friday, 28 October 2022, students will be able to get free entry to the show when presenting a valid student ID at the entrance. During all other show days, students are invited to visit at a reduced student fare of €18 per day ticket. 

EuroBLECH App The new EuroBLECH App for Android and iPhone will be available to download via the App Store from mid-September. It includes an interactive area map and a function to search for exhibitors and plan your visit to the show, as well as further useful features for visitors of EuroBLECH.
