More Than Half of EDW 2026 Exhibition Space Already Sold

More than half of the exhibition space for Estonian Defence Week 2026 (EDW) has already been sold, signalling strong early demand for one of the region’s largest defence industry gatherings.

This year’s edition will once again feature major international players such as Saab and Airbus, alongside a strong presence of Estonian defence innovators. Milrem Robotics, the world’s leading robotics and autonomous systems developer, joins as a sponsor, while Frankenburg Technologies will participate as an exhibitor. 

With exhibition capacity filling up rapidly, organisers expect a full house well ahead of the event, which will take place on September 21–25, 2026.

EDW 2026 will convene leading defence companies, policymakers and technology developers to showcase capabilities and foster cooperation between NATO, EU and partner countries’ defence industries.

The programme spans five days of discussions and networking, bringing together over 4,000 participants from the defence, government and technology sectors across more than 25 countries. At its core is a three-day defence expo showcasing cutting-edge technologies, with over 100 exhibiting companies, alongside a total of five major events taking place throughout the week.
