SuperExpo 2029 will be held in Melbourne!

November 2, 2026

A new city. A bigger stage. More opportunity for our industry.

We’re thrilled to announce that SuperExpo 2029 is moving to Melbourne, subject to finalising the venue contract.

SuperExpo has had a fantastic run on the Gold Coast. But when planning for 2029 began, we were faced with a 68% increase in venue costs. We weren’t willing to pass that on to our exhibitors and visitors, so we set out to find a better option.

We didn’t do it alone. We talked with exhibitors, shared the venue options, surveyed their preferences and listened closely to their feedback. Views differed, and every one of them helped shape where SuperExpo goes next.

And what we found was exciting. Melbourne offers a world-class cost-effective exhibition venue. It opens the door to new markets and new audiences, including architects, interior designers and building professionals, giving SuperExpo room to keep growing.

And then there’s Melbourne itself: easy to get to, packed with accommodation, home to incredible restaurants and, of course, some of the best coffee in the country.

Bigger, better and built on your feedback

This is more than a change of address. We’re taking everything SuperExpo has achieved and reinvesting it into an even better event. Thanks to exhibitor and visitor feedback from 2026, here’s what we’re planning:

  • digital registration with wallet passes and QR codes, so there’s no more digging for codes on the day
  • food and networking areas right on the exhibition floor, where the action is
  • dedicated show-floor security across every show day
  • refreshed sponsorship packages and new stand pricing options
  • a smoother pre-event process for exhibitors, from booking to bump-out
  • a brand-new SuperExpo website
  • professional development opportunities for attendees

We’ll share the confirmed venue, dates and details as soon as they’re locked in.
