With thousands of industry professionals attending, it’s a powerful opportunity to showcase your technology, services, and expertise.

Partnership & Industry Influence Focus

This event brings together the organisations shaping the future of civil engineering in the UK.

National Civils Show takes place at ExCeL London, 25–26 Nov 2026. If you are exhibiting, we design, build and install custom exhibition stands here. Trade visitors here are specifying and procuring, so the stand needs to make what you do obvious within a few seconds of someone glancing at it.

ExCeL's halls are open-plan and long, so a stand competes for attention across real distance. Height limits vary by hall, typically between four and six metres, and rigging, electrics and flooring must go through the venue's approved contractors. Loading runs via the east and west entrances on timed slots.

A full build covers design, manufacture, transport, installation, on-site management and dismantle, along with the RAMS, structural sign-off and contractor coordination the venue requires. You do not need to wait for a callback to find out what it costs — enter your stand dimensions in our online builder for an instant estimate.
