MWC Barcelona 2027

MWC Barcelona is the GSMA's flagship mobile industry and technology event and the annual meeting point of the global connectivity ecosystem. MWC27 returns to Fira Gran Via from 1 to 4 March 2027, bringing senior decision makers from telecoms, AI, cloud, devices and enterprise technology together to meet customers, build partnerships and see the technologies shaping industry.

Thought leadership themes

The MWC27 conference programme is organised around six themes that map the questions industry, business and society need to answer.

• Networks Reinvented
• AI in Action
• Autonomous Enterprise
• AI of Tomorrow
• Trust at Scale
• The Next Era

Who attends

Mobile operators, device makers, network and cloud vendors, enterprise technology buyers, investors, startups, media and government delegations. The GSMA says 45% of attendees are director level and above and 60% come from industries adjacent to mobile.

Around the show

Alongside the exhibition and conference stages, MWC hosts the GSMA Ministerial Programme, where government leaders and regulators meet the industry, and a startup showcase. The GSMA also runs 4YFN, its startup event, as part of its Barcelona event family.
