About this trade show directory

Use the trade show calendar

Use the trade show calendar to identify upcoming events that match your market. Each show record gives the date, city, venue, organiser and published audience, with a link to the official source. The directory is a discovery tool, so book stands, tickets and travel with the organiser.

Compare countries and locations

The country pages list international exhibitions by location, with the city and venue of each show. Compare the published audience before you shortlist: a show in a new market only has potential if it reaches the buyer you need. Find events in the country you want to reach, then use the month view to compare dates.

Search by industry or show name

Search by industry or show name to narrow your shortlist. Some events are a conference with an exhibition alongside, so check the format and access arrangements on the official website before you compare one with a trade fair.

Plan the exhibit

Choose the show before you plan the exhibit. Our guides cover checking dates, comparing attendance figures, budgeting and shipping equipment abroad. The budget guide groups the costs of one planning process: space and booth size, stand design and graphic production, venue services, freight, logistics and local handling, and which of them the organiser includes or your company must build or arrange. The attendance guide shows how to judge the audience rather than assume the largest display or busiest hall is the best investment.
