China Hi-Tech Fair 2026
About the Exhibition
China Hi-Tech Fair (CHTF), which debuted in 1999, is co-organized each year in Shenzhen by national-government ministries and commissions and the Shenzhen municipal government. Each CHTF has exceeded 100,000 sq m of total exhibition space, with around 3,000 exhibitors from more than 50 countries and over 500,000 visitors — currently the largest and most influential science-and-technology exhibition in China, known as 'China's No. 1 Tech Fair.' CHTF combines achievement deals, product displays, a high-level forum, trade-project attraction, and cooperation and exchange, focusing on advanced technologies in energy saving, environmental protection, next-generation IT, biology, high-tech equipment manufacturing, new energy, new materials and new-energy vehicles. Over the years CHTF has become an important window onto China's high-tech sectors, advancing the commercialization, industrialization and internationalization of high-tech achievements and promoting economic and technological exchange between countries and regions.

China Hi-Tech Fair (CHTF), which debuted in 1999, is co-organized each year in Shenzhen by national-government ministries and commissions and the Shenzhen municipal government.
Dates: 26–28 November 2026. City: Shenzhen. Venue: Shenzhen Convention & Exhibition Center (SZCEC). Dates are set by the organizer and can be revised, so check them against the official source before booking travel.
Sectors: Education & Science. The organizer publishes the full list of halls and the exhibitor line-up closer to the dates.
Most stands work in Chinese and only some teams speak English. We arrange a Chinese interpreter in Shenzhen: at the stands, in supplier negotiations and on factory visits.
Hotels near the venue sell out months ahead, so start planning well before 26–28 November 2026. Entry requires a visa: we explain the document requirements, and the Chinese consulate decides on issuance.
Related events by sector or city: China Stationery Fair 2026 (26–28 June 2026); Global Tea Fair 2026 (2–5 July 2026); International Conference on Education and Innovation 2026 (14–16 August 2026). Several fairs can often be combined into one itinerary when the dates do not overlap.
