12 European Supply Chain and Logistics Events on the 2026 Calendar
Noted by Martijn Graat · 999 reads
The 2026 calendar spans logistics, manufacturing, parcel delivery and intermodal events across nine European cities.

Europe’s 2026 supply chain event calendar offers shippers, carriers, logistics providers and technology teams several chances to meet peers and compare ideas across the industry. The listed events run from February through November, with dates in Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom and Sweden.
The schedule covers a broad mix of event names and locations, but the source provides no detailed agendas. For attendees, that makes advance planning useful: check each event’s current program and exhibitor information before deciding which sessions, meetings or suppliers are most relevant to your work. A conference can be a place to see what suppliers are presenting, hear how other teams approach operational challenges, and exchange experience with people facing similar decisions.
February and March: Dortmund, Brussels and Stuttgart
Logistics & Automation is scheduled for 25-26 February in Dortmund, Germany. It opens the calendar’s listed events and gives visitors an early-year opportunity to connect with industry peers and suppliers. Teams considering a visit can use the event’s published information to determine whether its exhibitors and program match their interests.
Two events follow in March. The Leaders in Logistics Summit takes place on 17-18 March in Brussels, Belgium. The Supply Chain Transformation Summit is scheduled for 18-20 March in Stuttgart, Germany. Their dates overlap on 18 March, so anyone weighing both will need to account for that conflict when planning travel and attendance.
The next listed event is Hannover Messe, running from 20 April to 24 April in Hannover, Germany. Its five-day span is the longest on this calendar. Visitors comparing the spring options should consider how much time they can set aside and check the event schedules for sessions or exhibitors that fit their work.
June and early July: Rotterdam and Birmingham
Breakbulk Europe is set for 16-18 June in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. Later in the month, UK Logistics Week runs from 30 June to 2 July in Birmingham, United Kingdom. The source describes UK Logistics Week as combining four events in one location, giving attendees a single venue in which to consider multiple event offerings.
The June and July dates leave a short gap between the two gatherings. For companies deciding whether to attend, the practical questions are familiar: which event connects most closely with current priorities, who from the team should go, and what conversations would make the trip useful? Setting those goals beforehand can help visitors make better use of time on site and bring back information colleagues can act on.
September and October: Amsterdam and London
The calendar resumes in September with Parcel+Post Expo, scheduled for 23-24 September in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. The name places parcel and postal activity at the center of the event’s identity, making it a relevant date to review for teams working in those parts of the delivery chain. Attendees should consult the event’s own materials for the latest program and participation details.
On 6-7 October, the Resilience World Nexus Summit is scheduled for London, United Kingdom. The calendar gives no further description of its sessions or audience. People considering it can use the event’s published agenda to assess how closely it relates to their supply chain responsibilities.
November: a busy month across four cities
November has the densest cluster of listed dates. Logistik Transport runs on 3-4 November in Gothenburg, Sweden. At the same time, ICT & Logistiek and Logistica Next take place from 3-5 November in Utrecht, The Netherlands. The overlapping dates mean that teams interested in both locations will need to choose where to spend their time.
Intermodal Europe 2026 follows on 10-12 November in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. The Retail Supply Chain & Logistics Expo is scheduled for 11-12 November in London, United Kingdom, creating another overlap for visitors considering events in different cities. Checking travel time alongside session schedules can help companies decide whether one attendee can cover an event or whether responsibilities should be shared across a team.
Planning around the calendar
This is a selection of events, not a complete directory. Dates and event details can change, so attendees should confirm the latest information with organizers before booking. The list also doesn’t describe individual programs, speakers, exhibitors or attendance costs; those details need to be checked event by event.
A useful shortlist starts with the work the attendee wants to advance: meeting suppliers, reconnecting with peers, learning from other teams’ experiences or gathering ideas. From there, compare dates, locations and published agendas, especially during the March and November overlaps. The calendar provides a starting point for that process, while the event pages can help turn a broad list into a practical travel plan.
