EUROPEAN ROTORS 2025: where Europe’s vertical flight industry meets, learns, and leads

Taking place on 17–20 November (exhibits open 18–20 November) 2025 in Cologne, Germany, EUROPEAN ROTORS is organized by the European Helicopter Association (EHA) and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). Managed by European Rotors GmbH, and produced by Vertical Aviation International (VAI), the event continues to set the standard for collaboration, innovation, and operational excellence in vertical flight.

Now in its fifth year, EUROPEAN ROTORS has become the definitive meeting place for operators, manufacturers, regulators, service providers, and future professionals from across Europe and beyond. With more than 230 exhibitors, 4,700 attendees, and participants from 80-plus countries in 2024, the show offers a rare opportunity to see the latest aircraft, technologies, and training solutions all under one roof.

“EUROPEAN ROTORS has become the central meeting place for Europe’s rotorcraft and vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) community,” said Fredrik Kämpfe, Chairman of the EHA.

Anchored by the EASA Rotorcraft Symposium, the event places safety and regulatory advancement at its core. Attendees can expect live demonstrations in the Rotor Safety Zone, hands-on training sessions, and technical briefings from global experts. Meanwhile, the Innovation Showcase and Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) sessions will spotlight the technologies driving a more sustainable future for vertical flight.

EUROPEAN ROTORS also invests heavily in the next generation. Through its education and career programs, the show connects students and young professionals with industry mentors, recruiters, and training providers to help shape the future workforce of vertical aviation.

“EUROPEAN ROTORS has become a must-attend event for anyone serious about the future of vertical flight,” said Dr Frank Liemandt, Show Director. “It’s where industry and regulators meet face-to-face to discuss challenges, share solutions, and build the next era of safe, sustainable aviation.”

Whether you are an operator, aviation journalist, manufacturer, industry supplier, or a student aspiring to enter the industry, EUROPEAN ROTORS 2025 offers unmatched access to the people and insights shaping tomorrow’s vertical flight landscape.
