The International Glass Manufacturing Show (IGMS) is the leading trade exhibition dedicated to the glass manufacturing, processing, and technology industries across the Middle East, Africa, and Asia.

Following two highly successful editions in Cairo, Egypt, IGMS is now taking its global expansion to Dubai, positioning itself at the heart of one of the world’s most dynamic construction and industrial markets.

IGMS Dubai 2026, taking place from 21–23 April 2026 at the Dubai World Trade Centre, will bring together the complete glass value chain — from raw materials, machinery, and production systems to finished glass products, façade technologies, and smart glass solutions.

The show serves as a comprehensive B2B platform where manufacturers, suppliers, distributors, and buyers connect to discover innovations, forge partnerships, and explore new business opportunities in one of the fastest-growing regions for glass demand.
