Airport 360 Expo 2026 will take place on April 23–24, 2026, at the Bombay Exhibition Centre. The event will bring together airport operators, infrastructure planners, technology providers, regulators, and aviation professionals to discuss innovations shaping the future of airport development and operations.

The exhibition will focus on a broad range of topics including terminal design, airside operations, ground handling, maintenance repair and overhaul (MRO), passenger services, and sustainability initiatives. It aims to facilitate collaboration between stakeholders involved in developing modern airport infrastructure and enhancing operational efficiency.

Airport 360 Expo builds on the success of the Inter Passenger Terminal Show 2025, which attracted more than 2,200 aviation professionals, 62 international exhibitors, and over 50 industry speakers. According to Taher Patrawala, India’s aviation market is entering a period of rapid expansion, with projections indicating that the sector could exceed $26 billion in value by 2030, while annual passenger traffic may reach 600 million travellers. In this context, collaboration across airport infrastructure, connectivity, and operational systems will be essential to support future demand.

As Premium Airport Partner, NMIAL will share insights from the development of the Navi Mumbai International Airport project, one of the country’s largest greenfield aviation infrastructure initiatives. The project is expected to play a key role in strengthening aviation capacity in the Mumbai metropolitan region.

Through its participation, NMIAL will engage with policymakers, industry leaders, and technology providers to explore solutions that enhance airport efficiency, improve passenger experience, and support sustainable infrastructure development. The partnership underscores a shared commitment by Media Fusion and NMIAL to encourage innovation, investment, and dialogue within India’s aviation sector as the country continues to expand its airport network and passenger capacity.
