Held every second year, it premiers the latest and greatest from the worldwide auto industry and 2009 looks set to be the most impressive event yet. With more than 60 car manufacturers filling 170,000 square metres there will be something to suit all automotive tastes.

Open to the general public from the 19-27 September 2009 (9.00 am – 7.00pm), tickets are available online from www.iaa.de or at the door.
