ABASTUR 2026, the Trade Fair for the Professionals of Hotels, Restaurants, Catering and Cafeterias, settles into Mexico City, Mexico from 26 August 2026 to 28 August 2026, continuing its run as a fixture the industry plans around. Under one roof it unites producers, wholesalers, retailers and buyers, turning a few days into a season's worth of deals. On an annual cycle, it gives the industry a regular moment to regroup and look ahead. Drawing roughly 19000 attendees, it ranks among the larger gatherings of its kind. Proceedings are hosted at Centro Banamex, a fitting stage for an event of this scale.

Set against the backdrop of Mexico City, ABASTUR 2026 benefits from everything the city has to offer — from its transport links to its after-hours appeal. Getting to Mexico City is simple thanks to its airport links and well-developed local transport network. Mexico City's hotels span the full spectrum, so whether you want frills or just a good night's sleep, you are covered. When the badge comes off, Mexico City keeps giving — good food, local colour and sights worth the detour. Few places in Mexico are as well suited to hosting the international crowd this event attracts as Mexico City.

Buyers will find Hotel Industry, Restaurant Industry, Restaurant Technology, Catering, Catering Services, Cafeterias and Travel & Hospitality on display, with plenty of room to source, compare and negotiate. The whole thing is set up for doing business: meeting rooms, matchmaking and aisles full of ready suppliers. An exhibition of 400+ exhibitors showcases the products and ideas defining the field. All of this is brought together by Informa Markets, the event's organiser.

It is the kind of fair where a single meeting can open a new market. Whether you attend to source, sell, network or follow the latest market developments, ABASTUR 2026 offers a focused and valuable platform for trade professionals, agents and distributors.

Whether you attend for a single day or the full run, planning your visit in advance helps you make the most of your time on site.
