Malta Show 2026 will bring together more than 1,500 delegates from over 60 countries for a three-day conference and exhibition in Valletta, Malta, from 25-27 November 2026.

Organised by Maritime World, the event will bring together shipowners, port authorities, regulators, investors, technology companies and government representatives to discuss developments across the maritime sector. The programme will cover six themes: law and regulation; security and cybersecurity; technology and artificial intelligence; trade and ports; energy and offshore; and superyacht and yachting.

The conference will take place at the Mediterranean Conference Centre in Valletta, with four conference stages and an exhibition featuring more than 50 booths. Speakers include government ministers, maritime executives and industry representatives, with confirmed participants including Chris Bonett, Malta's Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Public Works, and Miriam Dalli, Minister for the Environment, Energy and Public Cleanliness.

Sessions will address topics including the effects of geopolitics on shipping, sanctions, decarbonisation, automation, maritime cybersecurity, alternative fuels and the energy transition. The programme will also include discussions on Mediterranean port infrastructure and cruise operations, alongside sessions examining artificial intelligence, digitalisation and EU net-zero policy.

Additional activities will include private business-to-business and business-to-government meetings, technical and cultural tours, a startup pitch competition and an awards dinner on 26 November. The exhibition and conference will run alongside opportunities for companies to present their products and services to international industry representatives.
