    The aviation industry is huge and varied, comprising everything from the well-established business aviation sector to the burgeoning vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft segment. It’s appropriate then that the lineup of U.S. and international aviation trade shows, conferences, expositions, conventions, and airshows scheduled for 2025 is also vast and diverse, with events happening everywhere from Alaska to Australia.

    The following list of 2025 aviation trade shows offers events sure to appeal to anyone’s aviation interests, whether you sell jet aircraft, operate a maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) business, or build experimental or homebuilt aircraft. At many events, you’ll find representatives for Sandhills Global’s aviation marketplaces and services ready to discuss the benefits these dynamic platforms offer to buyers and sellers of aircraft, parts, avionics, and other aviation assets.
