The automotive world will return to the capital in early 2027 with the launch of the London International Motor Show, taking place at ExCeL London from 26–28 February 2027.

The event will bring together leading manufacturers, cutting-edge technology, and thousands of visitors for a major celebration of the industry’s past, present, and future.

Positioned at the heart of one of the world’s most influential cities, the show will offer a traditional motor show experience enhanced by modern, interactive features. Visitors will be able to explore the latest models from major brands, experience new technologies, and take part in live demonstrations and test drive opportunities.

The 2027 edition will place particular focus on the industry’s transition from internal combustion engines to hybrid and fully electric vehicles. Exhibitors will showcase the newest hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and battery-electric models, alongside innovations in software, connectivity, and mobility services.

In addition to brand exposure, the show will provide a powerful lead-generation platform for manufacturers. With thousands of engaged visitors, fleet buyers, and business decision-makers in attendance, exhibitors will be able to capture qualified customer data, generate test drive bookings, and convert interest into measurable sales opportunities.

Located at ExCeL London — just minutes from London City Airport and with direct transport links to central London — the show provides easy access for international exhibitors, media, and visitors. Its strategic location is expected to attract a diverse audience from across the UK and around the world.

The London International Motor Show will also be co-hosted alongside two other major motoring events at the same venue, including Motorsport Expo, the UK’s largest motorsport exhibition. This combined format will significantly increase overall attendance and broaden demographic reach, attracting enthusiasts, families, fleet buyers, and industry professionals.

Organisers expect the event to deliver a high-impact, cost-effective platform for manufacturers and mobility companies to present their latest vehicles and technologies to both consumers and the global automotive community.

The London International Motor Show returns to Excel London from 26 to 28 February 2027, bringing new cars, test drives, future technology and British manufacturing together under one roof. The show previously ran from 2016 to 2019. It is co-located with Motorsport Expo and Car Culture UK, with a single combined ticket.
