InterTabac is the most important international trade fair for tobacco products, cigars, and smoking accessories. It is held annually in Dortmund, Germany, and is strictly a business-only event.
InterTabac attracts an international audience of manufacturers, cigar brands, distributors, wholesalers, and professional retailers. The event is focused on commercial relationships, sourcing, product launches, and global distribution, not on consumer experiences.
Cigars at InterTabac
Cigars represent one of the most important segments of InterTabac. The fair features:
Premium handmade cigars
International cigar brands and factories
Accessories such as humidors, cutters, and lighters
Business discussions around distribution, private labels, and market trends
For many cigar brands, InterTabac is the primary annual platform in Europe to meet existing partners and establish new retail and distribution relationships.
Who Can Attend?
InterTabac is not open to the general public. Attendance is limited to verified professionals within the tobacco and cigar industry.
If you genuinely want to attend InterTabac, you must be part of the tobacco business. One common way to gain access is:
Being invited by a cigar brand you work with
Attending as part of a retail store team
Representing a distributor, importer, or industry supplier
Many visitors attend under their company’s registration or as invited partners of exhibiting brands.
InterTabac is not a festival or tasting event. It is a serious trade environment where business, contracts, and long-term partnerships are formed.
