The Farnborough International Airshow 2026 will run from 20 to 24 July at the Farnborough International Exhibition & Conference Centre, with daily opening hours set at 09:00 to 18:00. The event remains a major aerospace, aviation and defence industry platform, combining flying displays, an exhibition and a conference programme.
Early 2026 messaging points to a broad line-up spanning transport, business aviation and defence aircraft, including an Airbus A350-1000 among the confirmed display highlights. The show is being positioned as an industrial and strategic forum rather than a consumer air event, with emphasis on innovation, fleet relevance and long-term sector positioning.
The UK government is also preparing its largest-ever presence at Farnborough, bringing together defence, trade, finance and space-related representation. That underlines the show’s role in commercial diplomacy, industrial policy and the international aerospace supply chain.
