The key platform for meetings among water management professionals — the annual international exhibition VODEXPO within the framework of the All-Russian Water Congress (VWC) — will be held on May 20–22, 2026 in Moscow at the Gostiny Dvor complex.
This is an event where water utilities, manufacturers, and distributors from across Russia and abroad discover new technologies, sign contracts, and discuss trends in the rapidly evolving industry.
The Vodexpo exhibition traditionally brings together water utilities, major engineering, construction, and design organizations, as well as manufacturers and suppliers of industrial equipment for all areas of water use.
Visitors will explore advanced domestic and international technologies for water treatment and purification, wastewater treatment, laboratory and analytical equipment, modern pumping systems, centrifuges and valves, IT solutions for public utilities, and environmental projects.
