Sydney, Australia (12 August 2026) – Concrete Show Australia, a new large-scale trade exhibition for concrete and construction professionals, will launch at Sydney Showground in July 2027.
Dedicated to serving Australia’s $16.9 billion concrete industry, the new event will bring together the people, products, equipment and technologies that make up the concrete value chain, while shining a spotlight on concrete innovation and excellence, best-in-class suppliers, and best practice in the specification and implementation of concrete across all its applications.
The event is being launched by National Media, Australia’s largest independent trade show organiser and the company behind many other leading industry events including Futurebuild Australia, Workplace Health & Safety Show, Design Show Australia, and Kitchen+Bath Industry Show.
Dedicated concrete trade shows are well established across major international markets, from the United Kingdom, United States and Canada to Vietnam, Indonesia, Thailand, Brazil, Mexico and India, where they have become the annual meeting place for everyone in concrete construction. Until now, Australia has lacked an equivalent large-scale national platform dedicated to the sector.
Concrete Show Australia has been created to fill that gap.
The exhibition will connect concrete producers, concrete contractors, commercial and civil contractors, engineers, specifiers, infrastructure project owners and other industry professionals with leading manufacturers, distributors and suppliers of machinery, heavy equipment, vehicles, tools, products, technology and services.
Event Director Steve Morgan said the aim was to build an event that reflects the size, diversity and importance of concrete to Australia’s built environment.
“Concrete is fundamental to the construction of Australia’s homes, buildings and infrastructure, but the industry has never had a national trade show that brings its entire ecosystem together,” Steve said.
“Our vision is to create Australia’s definitive annual gathering for the concrete industry, where concrete and construction professionals can discover and compare new equipment and products, gain business knowledge, build connections and find smarter, safer and more profitable ways to get the job done.”
The event will serve professionals working across concrete production, precast manufacturing, pumping, placement, formwork, reinforcement, cutting and drilling, flooring, polishing, coatings, remediation, demolition, recycling, testing and construction technology.
Exhibitors will include suppliers of:
- Concrete batching and production equipment
- Cement, aggregates, admixtures and reinforcing materials
- Ready-mix, volumetric and precast technologies
- Concrete pumps, trucks and material-handling equipment
- Formwork, falsework and reinforcement systems
- Placement, screeding and finishing equipment
- Cutting, drilling, grinding and polishing tools
- Decorative concrete, coatings and surface treatments
- Repair, remediation and waterproofing products
- Testing, measurement and quality-control systems
- Recycling, waste-management and sustainability solutions
- Software, automation and digital technology
“The strength of a specialist event is its focus,” Steve said. “Suppliers will be able to demonstrate their products to a concentrated professional audience, while visitors will be able to compare solutions, speak directly with technical experts and find smarter, safer and more profitable ways to work.”
The exhibition will feature hundreds of industry brands, live equipment demonstrations, free seminars, workshops and networking events designed to connect buyers with suppliers from across Australia and overseas.
National Media will work with industry associations, trade media, suppliers and other stakeholders to develop the event and ensure it reflects the priorities and needs of the Australian market.
Concrete Show Australia will take place at Sydney Showground, 21-22 July 2027.
