Guides to planning a trade show abroad

All planning guides
  • How show cycles and moving dates affect planningBiennial fairs, shows that change month or venue, and brands with editions in several countries all affect how far ahead you can plan. How to read a show's cycle.
  • Checking official show dates before booking travelConfirm the edition, match the date range to your role, check the building as well as the city, and resolve conflicts before you commit to non-refundable travel.
  • Shipping exhibition equipment abroadSort goods by what will happen to them, choose the right customs route for the outbound and return journeys, and plan handling at the venue as carefully as the freight.
  • Understanding attendance and exhibitor figuresVisits are not visitors, a venue's floor area is not a show's, and a forecast is not a result. How to read the numbers organisers publish.
  • Planning an overseas exhibition budgetSeparate what the event costs from the cash, people and responsibilities needed to deliver it in another country, and price the itinerary you will really use.
  • Choosing an international trade showStart with the buyer you need to meet, then compare shows on audience evidence, admission rules, venue logistics and what happens after the event.

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.
