Environmental zone
Since April 2012, most of Cologne’s metrolpolitan area is a low emission zone, into which only vehicles sporting one of the stickers for emission groups 2-4 are allowed to enter.
The Koelmesse exhibition center is, however, accessible for all types of vehicles, even if they do not bear one of the aforementioned stickers. You will find directions on how to reach the site without a sticker at
