Singapore Airshow 2026 will feature first-ever Space Summit

Singapore Airshow will return from 3-8 February 2026 at the Changi Exhibition Centre.

Since its debut in 2008, the show has grown into one of the world’s leading platforms for aviation and defence, serving as a critical gateway to Asia Pacific’s dynamic markets.

Trade attendees can expect more than 1,000 participating companies from more than 50 countries/regions. In addition to returning exhibitors such as Airbus, AVIC, Bell, Boeing, COMAC, GE Aerospace, Gulfstream, Leonardo, Lockheed Martin, MBDA, Rolls Royce, RTX, Saab, SIA Engineering, ST Engineering and Thales, attendees can also look out for the presence of next-generation defence technology companies like Helsing, Quantum and Shield AI.

Country pavilions expected at the event include Australia, Canada, Czech Republic, France, Germany, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and the United States, with expanded presence from both the Italian Trade Agency Pavilion and the China Pavilion.

Introducing Space Summit 2026: Expanding Frontiers

Singapore Airshow 2026 will introduce a brand-new feature — Space Summit 2026, to be held from 2–3 February 2026 at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre, Marina Bay Sands, marking a key expansion of the show’s scope from air to the frontiers of space.

The Summit positions Singapore as the hub for space dialogue and collaboration in Asia-Pacific. Themed “New Frontiers: Shaping a Responsible and Inclusive Space Future,” it will convene global policymakers, space agencies, investors and innovators to discuss topics such as infrastructure, sustainability, investment and the in-space economy — a sector projected by McKinsey to reach US$1.8 trillion by 2035.

By bringing the space agenda into the Airshow, the Space Summit underscores Singapore’s growing role as a collaborative hub for the expanding space economy and encourages cross sector engagement across aviation, connectivity and emerging technologies.

Collaborating Towards a Sustainable Future

Sustainability continues to anchor the Singapore Airshow’s vision for the industry. The 2026 edition will place sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and net-zero initiatives in the spotlight, showcasing real-world applications and technologies that move aviation closer to decarbonisation.

Neste, the global leader in renewable fuels, joins as the Sustainable Aviation Partner to share insights at AeroForum on SAF adoption, supply chain transformation and enabling greener aviation operations. Attendees can also offset their travel-related emissions through the CarbonClick counter, first introduced in 2024, reinforcing the Airshow’s commitment to responsible travel.

A Platform for High-Level Exchange and Collaboration

Beyond the exhibition, the Singapore Airshow continues to serve as a vital networking hub through its exclusive trade days and strategic forums.

The AeroForum at Singapore Airshow 2026 will feature a comprehensive programme spotlighting the industry’s most pressing priorities, including market and budget outlooks, autonomy and human machine teaming, cybersecurity, sustainable aviation pathways, advanced air mobility, workforce transformation and the global race to commercialise next generation technologies. These sessions bring together thought leaders and technical experts to share insights across both civil and military domains.

The AI-driven AeroConnect business matchmaking platform will further enhance networking by connecting participants with the right opportunities.

“Weekend@Airshow”

Opening to the public on 7–8 February 2026, Weekend@Airshow will see the skies come alive with thrilling aircraft aerial performances and an exciting showcase of aircraft on static display, featuring the latest commercial, military and business aircraft. These highlights offer an up close look at cutting-edge capabilities and aviation excellence.
