From the home of motorsport, powering the future of performance

Name: Motorsport Technology Expo UK 2026
Start: 2026-09-15
End: 2026-09-16
Location: Farnborough International Exhibition & Conference Centre

Motorsport Technology Expo UK is the UK’s dedicated engineering trade show for motorsport and high-performance vehicle development, bringing together the technologies that underpin competitive performance, reliability, and safety.

The event connects the companies designing, manufacturing, and supplying the components, systems, and solutions that sit behind modern motorsport and specialist automotive engineering. From performance-critical systems and advanced vehicle architectures to safety, protection, and compliance-driven technologies that support both car and driver.

Built for engineers, teams, constructors, OEMs, niche manufacturers, and technical suppliers across the UK and Europe.

What is Motorsport Technology Expo UK?

Motorsport Technology Expo UK is an engineering-first exhibition focused on real capability, real products, and real expertise.

Held close to the UK’s world-leading motorsport engineering cluster, the show connects technical leaders across powertrain, vehicle systems, electronics, simulation, manufacturing, specialist vehicle development, and safety-led engineering disciplines that support both performance and competitor protection.

This is not a fan show.

It is a professional environment designed for engineers and decision-makers, where quality, innovation, safety, and practical problem-solving come first.

Short supply chains, specialist production, high-quality components, and regulation ready solutions sit at the heart of the event.
