Welding Week & Subcontracting come under a new umbrella name for a proven exhibition concept: Advanced Manufacturing Belgium

Following the successful launch of "Journée du Métal" for the French-speaking Belgian market in June 2022 and Easyfairs Spain's successful new exhibition concept Advanced Manufacturing, we are proud to present "Advanced Manufacturing Belgium.

Retrieved from November 22 & 23, 2023 comes the full Benelux metal sector together during Advanced Manufacturing Belgium with 3 shows below.
In addition to the well-known Welding Week, the fair for the welding professional and the trade show Subcontracting, the event for industrial suppliers we are launching a new event: Metal. At this new trade fair, metalworking professionals come to discover the latest solutions in machining, sheet metal working, surface treatment, 3D printing,....

Success formulas of Journée du Métal in Namur and Advanced Manufacturing Spain now bundled for Benelux.

June 2022 saw the first edition of Journée du Métal, a new one-day exhibition concept with all-in booths aimed at the French-speaking market. With 70 exhibitors and 715 Francophone visitors, this innovative concept was particularly appreciated. Journée du Métal featured both exhibitors with welding, metal and subcontracting solutions. This combination was viewed very positively by our visitors, exhibitors and strategic partners.

Previous research following Welding Week and Subcontracting 2019 also indicated that our visitors were eager to see the full solution chain.

With the umbrella title Advanced Manufacturing Belgium, we not only accommodate the entire metal market, but also name each specialized segment: Welding Week, Metal and Subcontracting. This way, each specialist can quickly find itself in its home market and the visitor can take a look at the technological solutions of the entire metal market with a single move.

Choosing fixed budget, minimal logistical preparation, high visibility and fast leads has never been easier.

New for the 3 trade shows under Advanced Manufacturing Belgium are the all-in stands. These have a large open character without a frieze frame and a large printed back wall with your visual.
This makes the exhibitors' products almost part of the corridors, making visitors much quicker to make contact. Thanks to the large custom printed back wall, visitors also know immediately what solutions the exhibitor has to offer.

Moreover, thanks to EasyGo Touch & Collect digital badge technology, visitors request information from exhibitors without even having spoken to each other. The exhibitor receives a list of all these contacts by e-mail.

Further unburdening our exhibitors

We offer each exhibitor €500 in credits to invite their customers/contacts by email and/or invitation by mail through our revamped digital platform.

Catering will also be able to be reordered. In other words: Only the exhibitors' machines and products are still missing.

Practical info

The 3 complementary exhibitions Welding Week, Metal & Subcontracting will take place on November 22 & 23, 2023 at Antwerp expo.

BIL, Belgian Institute of Welding Technology, will also host their 2-yearly welding symposium during Welding Week.
