Cruise Ship Interiors (CSI), the world’s premier exhibition and conference fully dedicated to the cruise ship industry, has opened registration for Cruise Ship Interiors Design Expo Europe (CSI Europe) 2025.
This will be the first time the event is held in Germany, a key hub for river cruises and the home of Meyer Werft. The cruise ship interiors supply chain, including shipyards and suppliers, will gather at Hamburg Messe & Congress from 3 – 4 December for two days of targeted discussions, conferences, and networking.
CSI London, recognised by thousands of returning visitors and exhibitors, will be relocating from its UK base to become CSI Hamburg. The event will feature new venues for popular networking experiences like the Opening Party and CSI After Hours.
Additionally, the trade fair will focus on the key topics and challenges faced by the European cruise ship interiors industry, providing attendees with solutions and products for one of the 295 refurbishment projects or 73 new builds planned over the next two years.
Discover new products, services and trends
As order books are nearly full across all shipyards, it is now a critical time for shipyard executives, ship owners, design studios, outfitters, and suppliers to come together.
The Conference, in partnership with NEWH, will examine everything from enhancing efficiencies throughout the shipbuilding process to providing a premium experience on board Europe’s many smaller river and ocean-going vessels.
Focused on connection and collaboration, the trade fair will feature over 300 exhibitors showcasing the latest innovations from the cruise interiors supply chain. Visitors will find new inspiration while exploring a lively show floor with creative displays, live product demonstrations, and immersive design experiences.
In the hospitality zone, Hospitality@CSI, panels will examine how hotel operations enhance guest experiences. An intimate Lunch & Learn session will feature a speaker from a prominent hotel brand, discussing how their market insights influence their approach to creating impactful guest experiences, followed by a networking lunch.
Hospitality@CSI
Exhibitors at Hospitality@CSI include everyone from new-to-cruise coffee break specialists Cimbali Group to seasoned cabin amenities providers like ADA Cosmetics and Bentley Europe.
Cimbali Group isn’t the only exhibitor making their CSI Europe debut, as the trade fair welcomes over 120 new faces to the show floor. Outfitters Meyer RE will also join the list of regular contributors at CSI Europe, including Marine Interiors (Fincantieri), The Deluxe Group, and Accomar.
Visiting buyers and designers can discover fully certified, new-to-the-market products for every project, from stone and surface materials with Porcelanosa to furnishings with Calligaris.
On day two, the show floor will transform to host the Cruise Ship Interiors Awards. This unique awards event, focused solely on honouring the creativity, innovation, and beauty within the cruise ship interiors community, will feature new categories and a revamped judging panel.
This year, the cruise ship interiors industry has experienced a surge of activity across both newbuild and refurbishment markets, as cruise lines report record bookings and profits.
