About International Real Estate Expo - IREX

International Real Estate Expo - IREX is a construction trade show taking place October 23–24, 2026 in New Delhi, India. It runs for two days, opening on Friday and closing on Saturday. That is only 14 days away, so most planning deadlines have already passed; focus on travel, staffing and lead capture.

Shows like this one typically draw contractors, builders, architects, engineers, project managers, dealers and equipment buyers. For registration, exhibitor packages and the floor plan, go to the official website, irexindia.com.

What to expect at International Real Estate Expo - IREX

Construction shows are practical and equipment-heavy. Visitors want to see products working, ask about durability and service, and often bring colleagues to look at machinery or materials together.

Two days go by quickly. Book your most important meetings for the first morning, when visitors are fresh, and keep the second afternoon for follow-up conversations at the booth. Expect most visitors to be contractors and their colleagues, often with a short list of suppliers they want to see.

How exhibitors should prepare for International Real Estate Expo - IREX

Here is a working timeline counted back from the opening day, October 23, 2026:

1. 16 weeks before (Jul 3, 2026) · date passed, do it now if you haven't
   Confirm your booth space and read the exhibitor manual. Book hotels in New Delhi while rates are still normal.
2. 8 weeks before (Aug 28, 2026) · date passed, do it now if you haven't
   Order booth services (power, internet, furniture, cleaning) before the early-rate deadlines, and send graphics to print.
3. 4 weeks before (Sep 25, 2026) · date passed, do it now if you haven't
   Ship freight to the advance warehouse if the organizer offers one. Book meetings with the visitors you most want to see. Set up lead capture and train the team on it.
4. One week before (Oct 16, 2026)
   Confirm freight arrived, share the staffing schedule, charge every device, and test your lead capture app with Wi-Fi turned off.

Preparation tips for construction shows

• Plan heavy freight and equipment move-in with the show's general contractor; deadlines for large items come early.
• Bring case studies with real project photos, sizes and timelines rather than generic brochures.
• Know your dealer or distributor coverage by region, since visitors ask who services their area.

Booth tips for International Real Estate Expo - IREX

• Let visitors touch materials and sit in or operate equipment where the rules allow.
• Ask about the visitor's current projects and when they start; timing drives construction purchases.
• Have spec sheets ready for architects and engineers, who often need data rather than a sales pitch.
• Give every person on the booth a clear role (greeting, demos, qualifying) so nobody waits for someone else to start a conversation.
• If you expect local buyers in India, bring key material in the local language as well as English, and have prices ready in the local currency.
• Capture every conversation the moment it ends: scan the badge or card, add a one-line note about what the visitor needs, and rate the lead hot, warm or cold. Notes written that evening are already half forgotten.
