Lebenswege Husum

The “Lebenswege” fair in Husum is a regional consumer exhibition focusing on opportunities to lead an active, secure and independent life. Its aim is to help people plan for the future and explore practical solutions to a range of life circumstances. The event welcomes visitors of all ages, with a particular focus on older adults and their families.

The fair takes place at the Messe Husum & Congress exhibition and conference centre in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany, and is organised by Messe Husum & Congress GmbH & Co. KG. As a regional exhibition organiser, the company provides a platform for professionals, service providers, businesses and members of the public to meet and exchange ideas. The event focuses on providing information, showcasing products and services, and offering personalised advice tailored to visitors' individual needs and future plans.

The exhibition covers five main areas: leisure, travel and quality of life; financial security, future planning and asset management; independent living and mobility; health and preventative care; and care and support services. Visitors can learn about accessible housing solutions, smart home technology, mobility aids, healthcare services, preventative healthcare and rehabilitation. The fair also features services relating to insurance, retirement planning, wealth management, inheritance law and funeral planning. The programme is complemented by travel and leisure opportunities, cultural activities, continuing education, volunteering, and domiciliary and residential care services.

A key feature of the fair is its combination of practical support for everyday living with long-term planning. Visitors can discover how to adapt their homes to meet changing needs as they age, maintain their independence through assistive technology, and improve their personal and financial security through appropriate planning. The event also highlights opportunities to enjoy an active social life, pursue leisure interests and remain involved in the wider community.

Exhibitors represent a broad range of industries and professional sectors, including healthcare, social care, medical technology, insurance and financial services, housing, skilled trades, tourism, and voluntary and charitable organisations. The fair is primarily aimed at the general public, particularly people in later life, older adults and their relatives, as well as family carers. It also offers valuable insights and opportunities for professional networking to those working in health and social care, advisory services and care organisations.

One of the main advantages of “Lebenswege” is the opportunity to explore products and services covering different aspects of life in one location and speak directly with industry professionals. Individual consultations allow visitors to discuss their specific concerns, compare available options and obtain detailed information about suitable support services. The emphasis is on clear, factual information, practical guidance and solutions tailored to individual circumstances.

The event is held at Messe Husum & Congress, Am Messeplatz 12–18, 25813 Husum, Germany. This modern exhibition and conference centre provides facilities for exhibitions, information sessions and individual consultations. Husum is a historic port town on the North Sea coast of Schleswig-Holstein and is easily accessible by car or train. Visitors arriving at Husum railway station can continue to the exhibition centre by public transport or taxi.

Overall, the “Lebenswege” fair provides a comprehensive platform for information and advice on quality of life, health, future planning and independent living. It encourages visitors to consider important aspects of their personal circumstances at an early stage, explore relevant products and services, and make informed decisions about their future.

The Lebenswege will take place on 2 days from Saturday, 24. April to Sunday, 25. April 2027 in Husum.
