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

Track-Proven Technology. Engineering-First Conversations.

The UK's dedicated B2B exhibition and conference for motorsport and high-performance engineering. Connecting the technologies, suppliers, and decision-makers that underpin competitive performance - without the noise.

What is MTE?

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.
