Food Week Korea
4–7 Nov 2026
COEX, Halls A–C and The Platz
Food Week Korea combines food and beverage products with kitchen, processing and distribution technologies. It serves both business buyers and consumers, so arrange supplier appointments ahead if procurement is your main purpose. Compare ingredients, operational requirements and supply reliability when evaluating products or equipment.
Seoul Cafe Show
11–14 Nov 2026
COEX, Halls A–D
Seoul Cafe Show covers coffee, tea, bakery, ingredients and cafe equipment. Choose your visiting day carefully: the first two days are for business audiences, while the final two also welcome the public. Operators can compare workflow, maintenance and supply arrangements alongside product demonstrations and tastings.
G-STAR — Business Exhibition
19–21 Nov 2026
BEXCO
G-STAR is a major games-industry gathering combining a public exhibition with business meetings and the G-CON conference. This listing covers the BTB exhibition on 19–21 November, for publishers, developers and service partners arranging commercial discussions. Prepare a concise pitch, playable build or service brief and book meetings before travelling. The public BTC exhibition continues through 22 November; a consumer ticket does not replace the business pass needed for the BTB area.
Korea Build Week KINTEX
17–20 Feb 2027
KINTEX, Halls 1–5
Korea Build Week's KINTEX edition covers building materials, interiors and construction solutions. Bring project drawings and performance requirements to compare products on a consistent basis. The Goyang venue is outside central Seoul; group meetings by hall and allow enough time for the journey.
SEMICON Korea
17–19 Feb 2027
COEX
SEMICON Korea connects semiconductor manufacturing, equipment and materials specialists. COEX is the main venue, with additional activities at Westin Seoul Parnas and Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas. Confirm the building and room for each session; the map here points to COEX rather than the satellite hotels.
Smart Factory + Automation World (AW)
3–5 Mar 2027
COEX, Halls A–D, Lobby, The Platz and Grand Ballroom
AW brings factory automation, machine vision, smart logistics and manufacturing AI together at COEX. Start with a measurable operational problem and shortlist technologies that fit your existing production systems. Check whether a demonstration represents a deployed application or a prototype before using its results in a business case.
InterBattery
10–12 Mar 2027
COEX
InterBattery covers the battery industry and its supply chain. Match meetings to your application, from cell and material selection to manufacturing or storage-system requirements. Compare cycle-life claims under equivalent test conditions and ask who supports certification, integration and long-term servicing.
KIMES — Korea International Medical & Hospital Equipment Show
18–21 Mar 2027
COEX, first- and third-floor exhibition halls
KIMES brings medical equipment, hospital systems and healthcare technology businesses to COEX in Seoul. It is relevant to hospital buyers and distributors comparing devices, service arrangements and integration requirements. Define the intended clinical use and local-market needs before asking for demonstrations, and involve qualified technical staff in follow-up evaluation. Exhibition claims alone do not establish suitability for patient use. Plan meetings by hall and allow time for product-specific documentation and support discussions.
Seoul Mobility Show
2–11 Apr 2027
KINTEX, Exhibition Center 1
Seoul Mobility Show combines vehicles and future-mobility technologies at KINTEX in Goyang. This listing begins with the public opening on 2 April; 1 April is a media day. Automotive professionals can use the event for market observation and pre-arranged partner meetings, while recognising that much of the exhibition is also aimed at consumers. Confirm a business contact and meeting location in advance. Despite its name, the venue is outside central Seoul, so allow for the journey to Goyang.
ICPI WEEK
20–23 Apr 2027
KINTEX
ICPI WEEK groups specialist exhibitions for process industries, laboratories, pharmaceutical and cosmetic production, and logistics. Plan your route around the relevant specialist show rather than treating every hall as one product category. This is the confirmed 2027 event; the separate biennial KOREA PACK next returns in 2028.
BUTECH — Busan International Machinery Fair
18–21 May 2027
BEXCO
BUTECH brings machinery, tooling, components, automation and smart-manufacturing suppliers together in Busan. Use the exhibition to compare a complete production requirement, including handling, inspection and maintenance, rather than the machine alone. Bring representative parts or process specifications and ask for demonstrations tied to measurable output. The organiser's published industry profile confirms 18–21 May at BEXCO. Confirm your visitor registration directly before making travel arrangements.
MADEX — International Maritime Defense Industry Exhibition
2–5 Jun 2027
BEXCO, Exhibition Center 1
MADEX is a specialist maritime-defence industry exhibition in Busan, bringing together government delegations, naval organisations and industry companies. Business days run from 2–4 June, followed by a public day on 5 June. Professional visitors should arrange relevant appointments and confirm their access category with the organiser. Check the current programme before planning seminars or associated visits, as older event schedules do not establish the 2027 arrangements.
Seoul Food & Hotel
8–11 Jun 2027
KINTEX
Seoul Food & Hotel connects food and hospitality suppliers with professional buyers in Korea. Prepare a category shortlist and discuss distribution, labelling and supply arrangements before ordering samples. Despite the event name, the venue is KINTEX in Goyang, so check travel times before arranging meetings elsewhere in Seoul.
KORMARINE
19–22 Oct 2027
BEXCO
KORMARINE brings shipbuilding, marine equipment and maritime technology businesses to Busan. Target meetings around vessel type, operating conditions and technical approval requirements. Compare lifecycle servicing, retrofit constraints and delivery schedules when assessing equipment; a promising demonstration still needs application-specific verification.
