FESPA Global Print Expo 2026 is set to return from May 19–22, 2026 at Fira de Barcelona Gran Via, bringing together the global speciality print ecosystem alongside a series of co-located events that extend its reach beyond traditional print applications.
Co-hosted with European Sign Expo 2026, Personalisation Experience 2026, WrapFest 2026, and the newly introduced Corrugated 2026 and Textile at FESPA 2026, the combined platform will serve as a central meeting hub for professionals across signage, textile printing, packaging, personalisation, and display industries.
The 2026 edition is expected to host more than 600 global exhibitors, including major technology providers such as Canon, Epson, HP, Mimaki, and Agfa. These companies will present the latest advancements in printing systems, inks, finishing technologies, and automation solutions.
A key highlight of the event is the expansion into new verticals. The dedicated Corrugated exhibition introduces solutions for packaging and display manufacturing, while the Textile showcase focuses on innovations in printed fabrics, including direct-to-garment (DTG), direct-to-fabric (DTF), and roll-to-roll technologies. These additions reflect the industry’s ongoing diversification and increasing integration across sectors.
European Sign Expo will feature cutting-edge developments in visual communications, including digital signage, illuminated displays, and out-of-home media solutions. Meanwhile, Personalisation Experience will explore the growing demand for customized products, showcasing technologies that enable scalable personalization across industries.
For the first time, WrapFest joins the event lineup, offering a specialized platform for vehicle wrapping, vinyl applications, and surface design innovations. The event will also host the World Wrap Masters competition, where top professionals compete in high-level wrapping challenges.
In addition to exhibitions, the event will feature three dedicated conference programmes: The FESPA Conference, The Corrugated Conference, and WrapTalks. These sessions will provide insights into emerging trends such as AI in print production, sustainability practices, workflow optimization, and evolving market opportunities.
With its expanded scope and integrated event structure, FESPA Global Print Expo 2026 underscores the shift toward connected, technology-driven production environments across print, textile, and packaging industries. The event is positioned as a key platform for networking, knowledge sharing, and exploring new business opportunities in a rapidly evolving global market.
