Automechanika Johannesburg 2025 is already in the works and the physical edition is confirmed for 28-30.10.2025. There’s keen interest among automotive leaders to return to a live format. Organisers expect a swift bounce back to regular numbers, which just goes to show how resilient and important trade fairs are for business growth.
Automechanika Johannesburg delivers all you need to know about advancements in automotive technology, creates great business opportunities and is a powerful information platform. The trade fair is based in Johannesburg, South Africa, and is the beating heart for the automotive sector in the sub-Saharan region. Editions are held at the JHB Johannesburg Expo Centre every two years around June. Automechanika Johannesburg is the best possible business platform for exhibitors as they meet with top buyers from around the world. The format of the event is excellent for launching new products and hosting demonstrations. Exhibitors benefit from a robust networking platform as well as a series of seminars on all the finer points of the automotive industry today.
Automechanika Johannesburg might be newer in comparison to its Automechanika sister events, but that doesn’t mean it’s not on the same level. The trade fair has everything that a buyer might need in one place. The exhibition halls showcase and demonstrate everything from automotive parts, car wash, workshop, and service station equipment to IT products, car accessories, tuning, vehicle safety, assistance systems, lighting, accident repairs. Brands you might recognize include Everstar, MCV, Serco, Tata, UD Trucks, Volvo and Trysome Auto Electrical. You can easily say that Automechanika Johannesburg is home to the entire automotive community. Exhibitors are in prime position to establish contacts with retailers, franchises, car repair shops, service stations, car trading, public authorities, fleet management, car manufacturing, garage equipment and tools, dealerships and universities.
The pandemic has pushed organisers to develop new digital offers to its community, and the best of these is the Let’s Talk Business platform. Available via a live stream, everyone can remotely join in on panel discussions led by key international players, associations, and supporters. The 2021 pilot run was successful and topics included digital retailing, the future role of dealerships and the evolution of the retail sector. We also have to cover the incredible side events that are taking place during Automechanika Johannesburg. You can see the best of the best skilled professionals sign up for the Tyre Changing Championship and the Body & Paint Championships. Additionally, there is a Skills Development Programme, whose goal is to help newcomers to the industry gain their footing and also learn about technological breakthroughs.

Dear Tom,
Thank you for your support and professionalism.
Now, about the Hotel: This hotel was in a great location, very close to the main train station but it's so far to fairgound (1h in train and walk +/-).
Our rooms was in 4th floor and the elevator only go to 3rd floor. For to go at 4th floor, only have a stairs. It's only a small points that we don't like.
Thank you for all
Christine was of great help to us to coordinate our booking and to plan our stay. The trip and fair went all good and we came back very satisfied. Thank you for your support and professionalism.

Hello Megan,
Thanks for your mail, I see you are “monitoring us”, like CIA / FBI …. J J J We have positive feedback about Euro Park Hotel, all went fine, as scheduled. Anyhow, no problems, we decided to confirm in advance and it is OK, it was our decision. Hotel people were good and friendly, rooms clean, hotel in general was OK. Maybe just a little remark: missing real coffee, maybe better coffee maker is appreciated more (the one available was not good…..but this is our taste, maybe others are appreciating).
Keep in touch Megan,
Bye now, Enzo
