Arablab Live 2026 in Dubai

Arablab Live 2026 in Dubai returns to Dubai World Trade Centre from 26 to 28 October 2026 for its 44th edition. Organised by Terrapinn, it is described as the region’s longest-running and largest show for the laboratory and analytical industry, and it fills Sheikh Saeed Halls 1 to 3 and the Trade Centre Arena.

About Arablab Live 2026 in Dubai

For lab managers, scientists and procurement teams, Arablab Live is a fixture in the calendar. It is where suppliers show new equipment and where buyers compare options side by side, all in one place over three days.

The organisers expect around 15,000 attendees. The show is aimed at trade visitors, lab managers and quality control teams from industries that rely on laboratory equipment, so it suits professionals rather than a casual day out.

A three-day conference runs alongside the exhibition, with hundreds of expert speakers covering current trends in lab work and analytics.

What to Expect

ArabLife

The ArabLife zone covers life sciences, environment, food safety and medical laboratories, bringing together suppliers who serve hospitals, research centres and testing labs.

Digital Lab and Industrial Lab

These areas focus on how labs are going digital and on the equipment used in industrial and process settings, from chemicals to quality control.

Lab Innovations

The innovations area is the place to see newer ideas and products, and it is often where you spot the trends that will shape lab work over the next few years.

EIAC Training

On 27 and 28 October, a six-hour training programme certified by the Emirates International Accreditation Centre (EIAC) covers measurement uncertainty estimation, with worked examples and a look at the role of AI in lab practice. Places are limited and pre-registration is required, and attendees who complete both sessions receive a certificate of attendance.

The Venue: Dubai World Trade Centre

Dubai World Trade Centre on Sheikh Zayed Road hosts many of the city’s biggest trade shows. Arablab Live uses Sheikh Saeed Halls 1 to 3 and the Trade Centre Arena, so give yourself time to move between areas.

Growtech Middle East, the agriculture and food security show, runs at DWTC on the same dates, so expect a busy complex.

Visitor Tips

Getting There and Parking

World Trade Centre Metro Station on the Red Line is right next to the venue and is the simplest way in. If you drive, allow extra time for parking during a double show week.

Daily Timings

Registration opens at 9am, the exhibition at 10am and the conference at 11am. Arriving at 9am lets you collect your badge before the halls open.

Book Training Early

If you want to join the EIAC training, pre-register as soon as you can, because places are limited.

What to Bring

Bring your registration confirmation, business cards and a list of the equipment or suppliers you want to see. Comfortable shoes are a must across several halls.

If your work involves laboratories, testing or analytical science, Arablab Live 2026 is three days well spent. Register on the official website, book any training you need, and plan your route through the halls before 26 October.
