VALVE WORLD EXPO 2026 will take place from 1 to 3 December 2026 at Fair ground Düsseldorf in Düsseldorf, Germany. The official website presents it as an international trade fair and conference for industrial valves, bringing together valves, components and parts, actuators and positioners, pumps, compressors, engineering software, and industry services.

The homepage and product directory position the event around the valve value chain, process industries and safety, digitalisation and automation, and global energy themes. The platform is supported by complementary content such as the Valve World Conference, Expo Forum, and awards, serving user industries including oil and gas, petrochemical and chemical processing, marine and offshore, water and wastewater management, automotive and mechanical engineering, and power technologies.

The official `At a glance` profile data reports 558 exhibitors, 5,762 visitors, and 15,464 square metres for the Düsseldorf edition's latest published figures. These numbers are used here as historical scale indicators rather than as confirmed outcomes for the 2026 edition.
