bauma CHINA 2026 Visitor Guide: Dates, Venues & Pre-Show Checklist

bauma CHINA 2026 Is Almost Here

Asia’s leading trade fair for construction machinery, building material machines, mining machines and construction vehicles returns this November — and this year it is bigger than ever. Under the theme “New Quality, Boundless Innovation, Shared Future”, bauma CHINA 2026 brings together around 4,000 exhibitors across a record 400,000 square meters. If you are planning to attend, this bauma CHINA 2026 visitor guide covers everything you need to know before you go.

Show Dates and Two Venues

For the first time, bauma CHINA is held across two world-class venues in Pudong, Shanghai, connected by a “One Badge, Two Venues” policy. One registration gives you access to both locations for all five exhibition days.

SWEECC – Shanghai World Expo Exhibition & Convention Center

  • Address: 1099 Guozhan Road, Pudong New District, Shanghai
  • Dates & Hours: Nov 23–25, 09:00–17:00 | Nov 26, 09:00–15:00

SNIEC – Shanghai New International Expo Centre

  • Address: 2345 Longyang Road, Pudong New District, Shanghai
  • Dates & Hours: Nov 24–26, 09:00–17:00 | Nov 27, 09:00–15:00

Tickets and Registration

Visitor admission is free if you pre-register online before 00:00 on November 21, 2026. After that, on-site registration costs RMB 80 / USD 12 per person. Pre-registering not only saves you the ticket fee — it also skips the queue at the entrance.

Register through the official channels:

  • Official English website: www.bauma-china.com
  • Official Chinese website: www.b-china.cn
  • WeChat: search the official mini-program “bauma CHINA工程机械展” and tap “Visitor Registration”

Pre-Show Preparation Checklist

A little preparation makes the show far more productive. Work through this list before you leave:

  1. Complete free pre-registration before November 21 and save your pre-registration code.
  2. Bring a valid original ID — your national ID card or passport — required to exchange your badge on site.
  3. Book accommodation early. Hotels around both venues fill up fast during the show week.
  4. Plan your exhibitor list. Browse the online exhibitor directory in advance and mark the booths you must visit.
  5. Schedule key meetings with suppliers and partners before the event — booths get busy quickly.
  6. Prepare business cards and a concise introduction of your company and needs.
  7. Wear comfortable shoes. The two venues total 400,000 sqm — expect a lot of walking.
  8. Check the weather and dress in layers; Shanghai in November can be cool.
