Visitor registration is now open for Southern Manufacturing & Electronics 2026, an annual exhibition for engineering and electronics professionals in the south of England. The event will take place from February 3-5, 2026, at Farnborough International Exhibition Centre
The show hosts the largest electronics trade show in the UK, bringing the entire electronics supply chain under one roof. The event will showcase the latest technologies and solutions across components, PCBs and semiconductors, test and measurement, design services, and advanced production equipment.
Attendees and exhibitors will have access to Easyfairs' event app and smart badge technology, enabling them to connect, collect and exchange information seamlessly.
Several features and events have already been confirmed for 2026, including the Global Electronics Association's return of its soldering competition, and they are adding a Wire Harness Competition to their stand —a new visitor feature for 2026.
Easyfairs' network across the engineering and manufacturing sectors will provide fresh industry insights, new connections and curated content of the 2026 edition.
The show will feature two dedicated seminar theatres — one for manufacturing and the other for electronics — with a complete programme of CPD-accredited sessions throughout. The agenda will explore strategies to help manufacturers streamline production, fortify digital capabilities, and discover new growth opportunities. Attendees will hear from experts on integrating digital tools and systems to enhance efficiency, improve productivity, and position their businesses for long-term success.
Simon Farnfield, event director at Easyfairs UK & Global, said, “Southern Manufacturing & Electronics has been the beating heart of the UK’s engineering calendar for nearly three decades. It’s a show with a proud heritage and loyal following, and under Easyfairs’ ownership we are committed to preserving what people love about it while introducing smart, intuitive tools that will help visitors and exhibitors get even more value from their time onsite. We can’t wait to welcome the community back to Farnborough in February.”
