Rangate Euro Tour 2024
Rangate Euro Tour | March 13-22, 2024
After gathering at the Frankfurt Airport, we will tour the local window and door shops over the next two days. We will enjoy a nearby city over the weekend and resume our shop visit on the way to Nuremberg on Monday. Prepared with great walking shoes, we will walk a few miles a day at the Fensterbau/Frontale & the co-exhibiting Holz-Handwerk shows. We can reward our endeavors with great conversations over delicious meals. Some choose to continue their European excursions after the exhibitions.

On March 13, after gathering at the Frankfurt Airport, we will tour the local window and door shops over the next two days.

During the shop visit days, our group from across the United States and Canada board a private tour bus and head to the local shops. Each shop visit is about two hours long. We get an up-close look at many parts of the production process, from material handling to wood processing, to finishing. Many attendees take notes on the aspects of their own shop they're looking to grow into or to optimize.
Many attendees also find new friendship and even new business opportunities as they develop collaborations. The Rangate Euro Tour also isn't just about learning from our hosts- it's also about learning from each other.
The whole experience counts on everyone’s passion and participation! Space is limited, and we expect quick fulfillment this year. Standby is available in case it becomes full. Please call or email us to lock your spot.

We created the Euro Tour to help North American woodworkers access a new world of knowledge and insight. Since 2012, we've seen the great impact the Rangate Euro Tour can have on the woodworkers who embark on the journey with us.
- Understand Your Options: Because we go on all-access shop tours, there's no better time to see equipment, techniques, or layouts really work in a business setting. Everyone who takes the tour learns something valuable they can take home and implement at home for a valuable boost.
- See the Cutting Edge: Most of world's best regarded manufacturers of woodworking tools and equipment are based in Europe. The Rangate Euro Tour is a chance to see their latest innovations first, and make a personal connection with equipment and tool suppliers.
- In Good Company: Over the days of the tour, our group shares a camaraderie and enjoys some of the food, drink, and culture of Europe. It's very common for attendees to become friends and collaborate or refer each other for new business after the experience.
