Singapore Airshow 2026 reaffirms its position as Asia’s most influential aerospace and defense event, bringing together global industry leaders, government delegations and innovators. Showcasing cutting-edge aircraft, advanced defense systems, sustainable aviation solutions and emerging space technologies, the event highlights the future of global aviation. With high-level forums, business networking and spectacular aerial displays, the airshow serves as a key platform shaping aerospace collaboration, innovation and strategic growth across the Asia-Pacific region.

The Singapore Airshow 2026 stands poised to reaffirm its status as Asia’s most influential aerospace and defence event, drawing industry leaders, government delegations, cutting-edge innovators and aviation enthusiasts from around the globe. Scheduled from 3–8 February 2026 at the Changi Exhibition Centre in Singapore, this biennial event marks its 10th edition in spectacular fashion with expanded programming, unprecedented global participation and sweeping new technological and strategic themes.
Recognized as the third largest airshow worldwide and the most significant in the Asia-Pacific region, the Singapore Airshow is a cornerstone for business, diplomacy and innovation in aerospace. The 2026 edition is expected to bring together more than 1,000 companies from over 50 countries, with high-level government and military delegations, corporate executives, investors and defence strategists in attendance.
From industry giants like Airbus, Boeing, Lockheed Martin and Thales, to emerging defence technology firms such as Helsing, Shield AI and Quantum, the event’s exhibition halls and static displays reflect the breadth and complexity of today’s aerospace landscape.
A defining innovation of Singapore Airshow 2026 is the inaugural Space Summit - an entirely new parallel event to be held from 2–3 February 2026 at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre in Marina Bay Sands. This expansion marks a strategic pivot into the domain of space, a sector projected to reach US$1.8 trillion by 2035.
Under the theme “New Frontiers: Shaping a Responsible and Inclusive Space Future,” the Space Summit will gather policymakers, space agencies, investors and innovators to deliberate on infrastructure, sustainability, investment, and the in-space economy. It underscores Singapore’s ambitions to become a dynamic hub for Asia-Pacific space dialogue and collaboration, bridging aerospace and space ecosystems.
In 2026, sustainability is not merely an exhibition theme, it is ingrained in the very vision of the airshow. With growing global emphasis on climate impact and greener aviation, the Singapore Airshow places heavy focus on Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), net-zero initiatives, and eco-conscious technologies.
Global renewable fuels leader Neste joins the event’s sustainability efforts, offering insights into SAF adoption, transformation of aviation supply chains, and enabling greener operations. Attendees can also engage directly with initiatives like carbon-offset programs, reflecting the show’s commitment to responsible aviation.
A hallmark of the Singapore Airshow experience is its aerial displays — live flying performances that capture both public imagination and industry attention. The 2026 show promises a stellar lineup with eight flying displays by six air forces and two commercial aircraft manufacturers.
Highlights include:
These performances will take place daily during the trade days and are a major draw during the Weekend@Airshow public days on 7–8 February 2026.
Beyond the flight lines, the Singapore Airshow’s static displays allow attendees to inspect aircraft, technologies and aerospace systems up close. From commercial airliners and business jets to military platforms and unmanned systems, more than 35 aircraft are expected on the ground alongside advanced aerospace prototypes and defence innovations.
The event’s AeroForums and high-level conferences foster strategic dialogue between governments, industry leaders and defence planners on subjects ranging from air connectivity to emerging technologies such as uncrewed aerial systems, advanced propulsion, digital aviation and net-zero solutions.
The Singapore Airshow remains a catalyst for business agreements, technology partnerships and market momentum in global aerospace and defence. Exhibitors, investors and delegates gather to negotiate contracts, forge supply chain deals, and explore joint ventures, particularly in the Asia-Pacific, a region characterized by rapid growth in air travel, defence modernization, and space ambitions.
From multinational OEMs to startups innovating in dual-use aerospace technologies, the range of participants reflects an industry in transformation, pushing boundaries in autonomy, digital connectivity, materials science and sustainability.
While the first four days of the event are primarily trade-focused, Weekend@Airshow (7–8 February 2026) opens the skies and exhibits to the broader public, offering families, aviation fans and curious visitors a chance to experience the spectacle firsthand.
Weekend attendees can enjoy aerial performances, static aircraft displays, interactive family activities, and close-up views of cutting-edge aerospace technologies. Public tickets went on sale from December 2025, with pricing structured to bring the thrill of aviation to a wide audience.
For Singapore, hosting the Airshow reinforces its strategic vision as a global aviation hub. It boosts visibility in international aerospace, attracts investment into local aerospace ecosystems, and supports Singapore’s role in regional air power cooperation and civil aviation growth.
The inclusion of the Space Summit further elevates Singapore’s position as a nexus for dialogue on future mobility, space access and sustainable aviation pathways.
The proximity to major Asian markets, combined with the city-state’s world-class infrastructure and policy environment, makes Singapore an ideal venue for shaping the future of aerospace collaboration across continents.
As the Singapore Airshow 2026 unfolds, it will not only enthrall audiences with spectacular aerial displays and cutting-edge exhibits but also serve as a crucible for new ideas, partnerships and industry directions. The integration of space discourse, the focus on sustainability, and the global stature of participants signal a forward-looking event that bridges legacy aerospace domains with tomorrow’s technological frontiers.
For industry insiders, government leaders, and aviation enthusiasts alike, the 2026 edition promises to be a landmark occasion, one where the skies over Singapore become a canvas for the next chapter in aerospace history.
