Informa Markets in India on March 16, 2026 announced the launch of PALM Expo Delhi, marking a strategic expansion into North India’s rapidly growing Pro AV ecosystem.
Building on the success of PALM Expo Mumbai, India’s leading trade platform for professional audio, visual, and lighting technologies- the new Delhi edition will serve the capital region’s thriving professional AV community.
The inaugural edition is scheduled to take place from January 7 to 9, 2027, at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, bringing together 70–100 curated exhibitors.
The premier expo is expected to attract 5,000–7,000 qualified industry professionals, creating a focused, premium business environment for meaningful industry engagement.
The show was launched at a high-octane industry networking evening in New Delhi, bringing together CEOs, industry leaders, innovators and key stakeholders from across the professional audio, lighting and Pro AV ecosystem.
The gathering enabled high-level dialogue, strategic partnerships and meaningful networking among industry leaders.
This marks a significant milestone for India’s professional audio-visual and lighting industry, bringing the country’s most established industry platform closer to one of its fastest-growing regional markets.
The expansion into Delhi is driven by strong regional market fundamentals. North India accounts for 40–45 per cent of India’s total AV hardware market, with Delhi NCR emerging as a key hub for corporate, government, institutional, as well as events and celebrations-led deployments.
Backed by substantial investments in digital infrastructure, higher disposable incomes and a dense ecosystem of corporate headquarters, venues and educational institutions, the region offers exhibitors direct access to high-value decision-makers across B2B and B2G segments.
Commenting on the launch, Yogesh Mudras, Managing Director, Informa Markets in India, said, “PALM Delhi is a strategic response to the scale and maturity that North India’s Pro Audio and Lighting ecosystem has achieved. PALM Delhi has been conceptualised as a focused industry platform to deepen sector engagement, expand market reach, and deliver stronger value to this industry.”
