IDEX 2025 dates are out! The International Defence Exhibition and Conference will occur between 17 and 21 February 2025 at the Abu Dhabi National Exhibition Centre. The future edition will run parallel to NAVDEX, the naval and maritime security trade show.

IDEX 2025 will welcome 130,000 trade visitors and 1,350 exhibitors from 65 countries. The trade fair will take over 165,000 sqm of exhibition space, displaying the latest innovations in weapons, vehicles, ships, training technologies, and other products and services used within the defence industry. The premier platform will benefit an increasing number of international and MENA region decision-makers, governments, armed forces and military personnel, allowing them to network with prime contractors and OEMs and deliver global media coverage.

IDEX and NAVDEX 2025 will offer an intensive exhibition and conference programme. The trade show will include a line-up of special events, live outdoor demonstration areas and interactive pavilions. The expo will also host several unique features, such as IDEX NEXT GEN, IDEX THINKTANK, IDEX & NAVDEX Talks, Innovation Journey, and Second UAE Worthiness & Safety Conference.
