About event
electronica 2026 — the world’s leading trade fair and conference for the entire industry chain: from components and modules to systems, software, and manufacturing services.
The next edition will take place at Messe München, Munich, Germany. Format: B2B exhibition across 18 halls, forums, CEO discussions, and parallel conferences.
History of electronica: 60 Years of Innovation
The premiere took place in 1964 — it was Germany’s first exhibition entirely dedicated to electronic components. Since then, electronica has been held every two years, marking key industry shifts — from miniaturization to an “all-electric” future.
In the anniversary year of 2024, the exhibition occupied all 18 halls of Messe München for the first time and attracted record-breaking audience interest.

Recommendations for electronica 2026 Visitors
- Plan your route through halls and forums in advance: Power Electronics, Embedded/Industrial Control, Visionary Stage — otherwise, you may miss key announcements.
- Book meetings via the exhibitor catalog and use meeting rooms near the halls — it saves hours.
- Travel: Take U2 to Messestadt West/Ost. If driving, allow time for parking and moving between pavilions.
- Bring an “engineer’s kit”: requirements outline, BOM, and questions for vendors — get tailored recommendations right at the booth.
- Check out the partner event SEMICON Europa (when held concurrently) — valuable for chip manufacturing and packaging topics.
