The Inhouse Farming Feed and Food Show 2026 is gathering pace as exhibitor registration opens ahead of its return to EuroTier 2026 in Hanover, Germany.

Taking place from 10 to 13 November 2026, the show will once again form part of EuroTier, recognised globally as the leading exhibition for professional animal farming and livestock management. Organised by DLG, the event continues to strengthen its position as a central meeting point for forward thinking businesses shaping the future of agriculture and food production.

Interest is already building across the sector. Companies working in vertical farming, controlled environment agriculture, alternative protein development, aquaculture, fermentation and smart farming technologies have confirmed their participation. The show provides a practical link between agricultural production and modern food systems, bringing together expertise, innovation and commercial opportunity under one roof.

Running alongside EuroTier, the platform also complements EnergyDecentral, which focuses on decentralised energy solutions. Together, the exhibitions explore how farming, food production and energy systems can connect more efficiently. A strong emphasis will be placed on circular thinking, with many exhibitors presenting concepts that reuse side streams to create additional raw materials. The aim is to develop closed loop systems that are cost effective and resource conscious across the entire value chain.

The 2026 edition will highlight technologies ranging from insect farming and aquaculture systems to bioreactors for fungi and microalgae. Advances in cellular agriculture and innovative inhouse farming methods will also feature prominently. As global demand for reliable and sustainable protein sources grows, organisers expect visitor numbers from overseas to rise further.

Marcus Vagt, Head of Energy, Inhouse Farming and New Foods, DLG, said, “The momentum in the market is enormous. More and more companies are recognizing that inhouse farming is a key component of the food systems of the future. It supports the DLG’s new guiding principle of ‘sustainable productivity growth’, which unites growth and resource conservation. At the same time, inhouse farming enables high product safety because plants and organisms grow in closed, controlled environments – free from climate fluctuations and external influences. This ensures reliable feed and food safety standards."

“Our exhibitors benefit from a highly qualified professional audience, international visibility and an environment that actively promotes innovation. We are delighted with the strong interest already at the start of the registration phase,” Vagt adds.

Following the Hanover exhibition, the Inhouse Farming Feed and Food Convention will take place in Hamburg on 21 and 22 April 2027, continuing the conversation around the future of food and farming.

Vietstock Expo & Forum 2026, which is scheduled to take place from 21 to 23 October 2026 at the Saigon Exhibition & Convention Center (SECC) in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, is set to be a major moment for the livestock and aquaculture sectors in Asia.

Over the years, Vietstock has established itself as Vietnam’s leading international exhibition for the feed, livestock, aquaculture and meat industry, and the 2026 edition is expected to reinforce its reputation as a trusted meeting place for professionals from across Southeast Asia and beyond.

Building on the momentum of previous editions, Vietstock 2026 is expected to be one of the largest events in its history. Organisers are projecting around 300 international and local exhibitors and approximately 13,000 trade visitors and professional buyers over the three day show. This scale reflects the growing importance of the region within global food and agriculture systems, as well as the demand for platforms that connect businesses across the entire farm to fork value chain. From feed manufacturers and livestock producers to meat processors and agricultural technology providers, the event offers space for meaningful exchange and collaboration.

A central feature of Vietstock 2026 will be its broad showcase of products, solutions and technologies shaping the future of livestock and related industries. Alongside the exhibition floor, the programme will include industry conferences and technical seminars, as well as specialist forums such as the Antimicrobial Resistance Forum. These sessions are designed to encourage discussion around current challenges and future opportunities, while networking activities such as meet ups and match making programmes will help participants turn ideas into partnerships.

Beyond the main exhibition, 2026 will also see related events delivered under the wider livestock and aquaculture series. According to announcements from Informa Markets, the Aquaculture Vietnam & VietShrimp Asia 2026 event will take place earlier in the year in March at the same SECC venue. Additional livestock and aquaculture exhibitions are also scheduled throughout 2026 in Taiwan and the Philippines, further strengthening regional connections.

Together, these events highlight Vietstock’s growing role in bringing the livestock and aquaculture community together and showcasing the trends, solutions and business opportunities shaping agriculture across Asia in 2026.

VIV Europe 2026 clearly demonstrates strong market confidence.

VIV Europe 2026 is set to be a landmark event as it celebrates its 25th Edition and reinforces its position as one of the most influential agrifood exhibitions in the world.

Backed by strong international partnerships and near sell out momentum, the event returns to where the VIV Worldwide journey first began, bringing together the global feed to food community at a crucial moment for the industry.

Organised by Royal Dutch Jaarbeurs and VNU Europe, the 2026 edition not only honours VIV Europe’s rich legacy but also signals a forward looking strategy. The organisers have confirmed that from 2028 onwards, VIV Europe will move to a two year cycle, with the next edition scheduled for June 2028. This shift aims to provide greater continuity, consistency and long term value for exhibitors and visitors alike.

Jeroen van Hooff, President and CEO of Royal Dutch Jaarbeurs and VNU, said, “VIV Europe is evolving with the strength, consistency and international depth that the industry has been asking for. Europe needs a reliable and forward-looking agrifood platform to connect strategy, technology and business. VIV Europe 2026 will meet that need and the new two-year rhythm from this year on will provide in the epicenter of Europe, the continuity and momentum that our exhibitors, partners and global community deserve.”

The anniversary edition will welcome around 600 exhibitors showcasing the latest innovations, technologies and machinery across the agrifood value chain. An estimated 20,000 international visitors are expected in Utrecht, one of the world’s leading hubs for agricultural innovation. The programme will be supported by major partners including Rabobank, Wageningen University, the World Poultry Science Association and Common Source, alongside a full week of industry focused activities under the banner of VIV Week.

Poland has been named Country of Honor for 2026, reflecting its status as the leading poultry producer in the European Union and a rapidly growing exporter. Special sessions, delegations and matchmaking activities will spotlight Poland’s dynamic role in animal protein production.

With more than 97 percent of exhibition space already sold, VIV Europe 2026 clearly demonstrates strong market confidence. As Europe’s agrifood sector faces rapid technological change, sustainability demands and global competition, VIV Europe stands out as a vital platform connecting innovation, trade and real business opportunity.
