About this event

MSV, the International Engineering Fair in Brno, is described by its organizer as the most important industrial fair in Central Europe. Every October it fills the Brno Exhibition Centre with machine builders, component suppliers and electrical engineering firms, with a strong focus on machining, forming and the digitisation of production.

Six fairs in one

In 2026, MSV runs alongside five specialised biennial fairs that share its dates and fairground, so a single visit covers the core of the engineering supply chain.

IMT – 14th International Trade Fair for Machine Tools and Forming Machines
WELDING – welding technologies
PLASTEX – plastics, rubber and composites
PROFINTECH – surface treatment and finishing
FOND-EX – foundry industry
