Auto Trade EXPO 2026 opens for business this month

It has been announced that stand space for Ireland’s Automotive Aftermarket EXPO 2026 will become available from Monday, May 19th.

Don’t miss your opportunity to reach all of the mechanics, technicians and apprentices from independent garages and main dealerships alike from all over Ireland on October 10th-11th, next year.

This opportunity arises just every second year and the exhibition is bigger and better every time. 17 months may seem like a long time to plan ahead but based on experience, we fully expect the majority of the best stand positions will have names on them by the end of this month.

As always, the Auto Trade EXPO will also be a must attend event for workshop and or aftersales managers, parts managers, and owners and managers of garages, transport workshops, bodyshops, tyre centres, motor factors, and everyone involved in the wider auto aftermarket from all over Ireland.

WHEN? OCTOBER 10-11, 2026.
WHERE? THE RDS, DUBLIN 4.

STAND RESERVATIONS OPEN MONDAY, MAY 19th

Please note that you can send an email to: pdeane@autopub.ie to express your interest in exhibiting at the Auto Trade EXPO (without obligation) ahead of the May 19th launch date, and we will contact you with a reminder of the launch.

The Auto Trade EXPO takes place alongside the CV Workshop EXPO every two years at Ireland’s largest exhibition centre, the RDS Simmonscourt in Dublin. The first EXPO took place in 2014 at Citywest and it has grown to be a sell-out at a larger exhibition centre on the last two occasions. Professional transport and auto industry attendance had grown on each occasion.

That’s one of the main reasons why the vast majority of exhibitors return to each EXPO. Will you be there in 2026?
