After 24 editions of Busworld Europe in the picturesque city of Kortrijk, Busworld is moving to Bruxelles, the capital of Belgium… and Europe. Easier to reach with an international airport and train station next door, more hotel rooms, a lively city with top of the bill horeca and entertainment, the European Commission just around the corner…. Brussels has got it all. The exhibition is almost fully booked. With a growth of 50% in net exhibition surface, going from 40,000 sqm to 60,000 sqm, it is already clear that, again, it will be the biggest edition ever.

Busworld from 18 to 23 October 2019

A bigger surface, more exhibitors, more vehicles to look at, to touch, to sit in, to testdrive… visitors should prepare themselves for a significantly longer ride in Brussels Expo from 18 to 23 October 2019. The full exhibitor list can be consulted on the website www.busworldeurope.org. In conjunction with the Busworld exhibition, the ‘International Bus Conference’ – a collaboration between UITP and Busworld Academy – will open its doors in Brussels from 21 to 23 October 2019 on the same premises. Combining a visit of the exhibition and participating to a seminar is perfectly possible. Recently a call for papers was launched. All speakers that are interested can apply for a slot until 28 February 2019. More information is available on the website www.busconference.com.
