The 33rd International Dental Show (IDS) will be held at the Cologne Trade Fairground from 24-28 March 2009 and promises to become a festival of innovations, trends and ideas. Approximately 1,750 exhibitors from 55 countries will present around 1,100 innovations in more than 138,000 square metres of exhibition space, making IDS 2009 a must for exhibitors and suppliers as well as dentists, technicians, hygienists and all users of dental products.

The IDS is held in Cologne every two years and is organised by the GFDI, the commercial enterprise of the Association of German Dental Manufacturers (VDDI), and staged by Koelnmesse GmbH. Visitors in 2009 will find a truly international exhibition with a new, even more modern atmosphere. More than 200 new exhibitors are proof of the Show's status as a world leader in the dental arena and the Cologne Trade Fairground provides the perfect venue, with its completely renovated 'Messeboulevard' making trips between halls shorter and enabling the 100,000 expected visitors to easily find their way around.

Together, the exhibition centre, services and supporting programme make IDS 2009 an experience not to be missed. For more information visit the Show's official website at http://www.ids-cologne.de.
