Africa Build Show (ABS) 2026, West Africa’s premier construction and infrastructure exhibition, is confirmed to take place from 7–9 July 2026 at The Grand Arena, Accra International Conference Centre, Accra, Ghana. Organized by MIE Events, this year’s edition brings together global construction suppliers, policymakers, developers, and investors to unlock new opportunities across the built environment.
Co-located with MegaWatt Africa 2026 the leading power generation, lighting, and renewable energy trade platform and Ghana Investment & Trade Week 2026, the event creates an integrated ecosystem for cross-sector investment, infrastructure development, energy solutions and trade partnerships under one strategic forum.
A Comprehensive Platform for Africa’s Built Environment
Africa Build Show has rapidly established itself as a key B2B platform for the construction value chain, providing global and regional stakeholders with unparalleled access to:
- Building and construction equipment, materials, tools and technologies
- Architectural and interior solutions
- Mechanical, electrical, plumbing (MEP) and smart building systems
- Digital construction and sustainability innovations
The 2026 edition will amplify these offerings across the three days, enabling visitors and exhibitors to explore modern solutions that support resilient infrastructure, urban development, affordable housing, and sustainable construction practices across West Africa.
Strategic Co-Location Maximises Impact
By bringing together Africa Build Show 2026, MegaWatt Africa 2026 and Ghana Investment & Trade Week 2026, the event offers a holistic business and investment environment:
- MegaWatt Africa 2026 showcases advanced power generation, renewable energy, grid infrastructure and lighting solutions, addressing critical energy challenges and opportunities in the region.
- Ghana Investment & Trade Week 2026 convenes government leaders, global investors and institutional stakeholders to accelerate foreign direct investment (FDI), climate financing, and strategic trade discussions.
The convergence of these major forums creates distinctive cross-industry synergies, enhancing business outcomes for delegates, exhibitors and partners by linking construction demand with energy solutions and investment flow.
