Drone International Expo 2026

Drone International Expo 2026 is India's dedicated exhibition and conference for drones, unmanned aerial systems (UAS), and related technologies, taking place on 24 and 25 June 2026 at Hall No. 3 & 4, Bharat Mandapam (Pragati Maidan), New Delhi. As one of the country's only events focused exclusively on the drone and unmanned systems sector, it brings together manufacturers, technology developers, service providers, regulators, and end users to explore the rapidly expanding world of unmanned aviation.

The drone industry is undergoing explosive growth in India, driven by supportive government policy, expanding commercial applications, and rising investment in indigenous manufacturing. Drones are transforming sectors as diverse as agriculture, surveying and mapping, infrastructure inspection, logistics, defence and security, disaster management, and media. Drone International Expo captures this momentum, providing a focused platform where the entire ecosystem can converge to discover innovations, evaluate solutions, and build the partnerships needed to drive the sector forward.

The exhibition showcases a comprehensive range of products and technologies, including commercial and industrial drones, defence and surveillance UAVs, drone components and subsystems, LiDAR and geospatial technologies, payloads and sensors, ground control systems, counter-drone and anti-UAS solutions, and unmanned land and water systems. Visitors can examine cutting-edge platforms first-hand, witness live demonstrations, and compare offerings from leading domestic and international suppliers, gaining valuable insight into the capabilities reshaping multiple industries.

Drone International Expo is co-located with a powerful cluster of complementary security and safety events at Bharat Mandapam, including the International Police Expo, the India Homeland Security Expo, the CCTV Expo, and the Fire Safety and Disaster Expo. This integrated platform spans the full spectrum of security, public safety, and emerging technology, enabling visitors to explore interconnected domains and exhibitors to reach a broad, highly relevant audience of decision-makers under one roof.

The event attracts a diverse professional audience that includes drone manufacturers and service providers, government and defence agencies, security and law enforcement officials, agriculture and infrastructure stakeholders, system integrators, investors, and technology enthusiasts. For exhibitors, this concentration of qualified buyers and partners offers an exceptional opportunity to launch products, generate leads, and establish a strong presence in India's fast-growing drone market.
