Dates: 3–5 December 2026. City: Shanghai. Venue: Shanghai New International Expo Centre (SNIEC). Dates are set by the organizer and can be revised, so check them against the official source before booking travel.

Sectors: Metalworking & Metallurgy. The organizer publishes the full list of halls and the exhibitor line-up closer to the dates.

Hotels near the venue sell out months ahead, so start planning well before 3–5 December 2026. Entry requires a visa: we explain the document requirements, and the Chinese consulate decides on issuance.

Related events by sector or city: BLSE 2026 (26–28 June 2026); Gifts & Home Products Expo 2026 (26–28 June 2026); China Stationery Fair 2026 (26–28 June 2026). Several fairs can often be combined into one itinerary when the dates do not overlap.
