ILA Berlin Airshow and Aviation Week have signed an exclusive media partnership to support the show taking place in June 2026.
Under the agreement, Aviation Week will produce three print show dailies alongside our digital media including website, newsletter and social coverage, to support the show. Aviation Week's expert editors will be on-site to ensure attendees and our global audience catch the news, analysis and insight from the show as it happens.
In 2024, the biennial civil and military airshow attracted about 95,000 visitors and 600 exhibitors from 31 countries. On the five stages, 350 expert speakers participated in talks, panel discussions and debates discussing future trends in aerospace. Some €5.9 billion in deals were signed at ILA Berlin, including major contracts from the German government.
But the show traces its history back to 1909, where the star of the Frankfurt exhibition was an airplane built by the Wright brothers, which was brought for a week from display flights in Berlin.
Aviation Week's unrivalled media portfolio will enable ILA Berlin to reach the world's most comprehensive network of aviation professionals in aerospace, air transport, defense, business aviation, space and MRO.
Exhibitors already confirmed for ILA 2026 include Airbus, Boeing, Bombardier, the Federal Ministry of Transport (BMV), the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWE), Clean Aviation, Dassault, Deutsche Aircraft, the German Aerospace Center (DLR), Diehl Aviation, Fraunhofer, GE Aerospace, Honeywell, Liebherr-Aerospace, Lufthansa Technik AG, MTU Aero Engines, Rolls-Royce, Saab, Safran, RTX, and Vaeridion.
