The China International Cruise Shipbuilding Forum & Exhibition will return to the Hyatt on the Bund in Shanghai, China, for its eighth edition from 29–30 June 2026.
Held annually, the event brings together shipbuilders, cruise operators, designers, suppliers and maritime stakeholders to discuss developments in the cruise shipbuilding and passenger ship sectors through a programme of forums, exhibitions and networking opportunities
Hosted by the Chinese Society of Naval Architects and Marine Engineers and the Shanghai Services Federation, and supported by a range of Chinese government bodies and industry organisations, the event aims to accelerate the independent design and construction of cruise ships while advancing the development of supporting supply chains in China.
The event programme will begin on 29 June with the opening ceremony, keynote sessions and a series of forums focused on cruise ship construction, design and procurement. Dedicated B2B meetings and the China-made Supporting Products Achievement Exhibition will run alongside the conference.
On 30 June, sessions will cover international classification standards, cruise vessel renovation and maintenance technologies, river cruise and passenger ship development, and cruise manufacturing supply chains.
