A preview of EUROSATORY 2026
“At a time of fast-moving technological and geopolitical developments, country leaders are experiencing increasing difficulties as they seek to build their Defence and Security systems. EUROSATORY 2026 will enable them to find solutions ideally suited to their needs by bringing together all the stakeholders that matter over five days: manufacturers, start-ups and leading experts.
This edition is shaping up to be the most ambitious in the event’s history. Remaining true to its originality, the tradeshow will confirm its status as the unmissable global event, offering its participants a unique dive into contemporary operational and strategic issues. Its expansion into Hall 4 will be a new milestone: having previously filled Hall 5B at the 2024 edition, the show will now extend to cover more than 185,000 sqm of space, illustrating its appeal and central role in the global trend towards rearmament. The demonstration zone will be entirely redesigned to reflect the reality of modern operations: trench warfare, 3D manoeuvres with drones and CQB.
EUROSATORY 2026 will shine a light on major strategic trends: multi-domain superiority, remote engagement, land manoeuvre and air mobility, comprehensive security, crisis management and industrial resilience. I invite you to join in with this unique experience, discover the innovations that will shape the Defence of the future, and meet all the sector’s global stakeholders.”
Charles Beaudouin, General Manager of EUROSATORY and Chairman of COGES EVENTS.
