Destination: Düsseldorf We are pleased to announce that ECOC Exhibition 2016 will take place from 19-21 September at CCD Congress Center in Düsseldorf, Germany The ECOC Exhibition has been running for over 20 years and has grown to become the largest optical communications exhibition in Europe and the key meeting place for decision makers from across the fibre optic communications technology industry.

The city name Düsseldorf means “fascination of variety” and its unique mix of Rhenish charm and sophisticated elegance makes the city irresistible. It is no surprise Düsseldorf has been voted the city with the best quality of life worldwide. The city has a lot to offer, whether it’s taking a stroll through the legendary Old Town, the ‘Altstadt’, famous for its 260 inns and restaurants - known as the ‘longest bar in the world’, visiting the most prestigious shopping street ‘Königsallee’, considered one of the world‘s most luxurious boulevards, enjoying the traditional Rhenish specialities at the local brewery ‘Uerige’, well known for its famous Alt Beer, or simply taking a walk along the Rhine embankment promenade, there is a wealth of attractions worth visiting during your time in Germany.
