Rockwell Automation 2026, the Rockwell Automation Automation Fair, brings the industry to Boston, United States from 16 November 2026 to 19 November 2026. From factory floors to buying desks, the whole supply chain shows up — which is exactly what makes the sourcing here so productive. Held every year, each edition stays fresh and timely. Expect to join around 14000 attendees over the course of the event. As the organiser, Rockwell Automation curates the agenda and keeps the experience running smoothly. Thomas M. Menino Convention & Exhibition Center provides the backdrop, with the space and facilities to match the programme.

When the host city is Boston, half the appeal is already in place — a well-connected, welcoming base with plenty to offer once the day is done. Reaching Boston is straightforward, with strong international connections and local transport that make getting to the venue easy. Lodging is easy to sort in Boston, with everything from conference hotels to smaller stays with local flavour.

From everyday essentials to specialist lines, Automation, Industrial Automation, Manufacturing Technology, Industrial Robotics and Manufacturing & Engineering run right across the exhibition. It rewards the prepared: come with a plan and you can line up a season's worth of suppliers in an afternoon. With 150+ exhibitors in attendance, the hardest part is deciding which stands to visit first.

You arrive with a shortlist and leave with suppliers, samples and a plan for the season ahead. For buyers, makers and the middlemen who connect them, Rockwell Automation 2026 remains a valuable opportunity to source, connect and keep pace with the market.

Full programme details, exhibitor lists and registration information are typically published in the run-up to the event on the official website.
