Pet Fair Asia will return to Shanghai August 19-23, 2026, for its 28th edition, featuring a record 320,000 square meters of exhibition space and more than 2,600 exhibitors.
The show, organized by Globus Events, will add national pavilions from Australia, Canada and Thailand to its international roster. Six pavilions participated in 2025, representing New Zealand, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, the U.S. and Poland.
"We are delighted to present a continually refreshed platform to our audience each year, enriched with new programs and innovative initiatives that showcase the very best of Asia's pet industry," said Edwin Tan, CEO at Globus Events.
"As both a manufacturing and innovation powerhouse, China remains a key and rapidly expanding pet market, offering significant opportunities for pet businesses worldwide," Tan continued. "Pet Fair Asia has already established itself as an unmissable global meeting hub in Asia, providing a unique vantage point to understand where the future of the pet industry is headed."
In 2025, the event drew 130,000 professional visitors from China and attendees from 90 other countries, with international visitation growing more than 20% year over year.
New for 2026, the show will launch a VIP B2B Day on its opening day, limiting access to invited local importers, wholesalers, distributors, VIP buyers and media partners. International visitors will have access throughout all show days, including the first.
Pet Fair Supply, a co-located event focused on the pet industry supply chain, will expand to 10 outdoor halls in 2026 — up from eight — hosting more than 900 exhibitors across 70,000 square meters. The area covers equipment, packaging, smart factory, OEM/OBM/ODM and third-party services.
