Guangzhou Exhibition on Intelligent Audio-Visual Products for Performing Arts Equipment

The Exhibition Value of the Guangzhou Entertainment Equipment Show (GETshow)

• One of the largest and most influential professional events in the global entertainment equipment industry: The Guangzhou Entertainment Equipment Intelligent Audio-Visual Products Technology Exhibition (GETshow), organized by the Guangdong Entertainment Equipment Industry Chamber of Commerce, has been successfully held for more than ten editions since its inception. It is one of the most influential specialized exhibitions in China and worldwide. Grounded in the industry landscape of “the world looks to China for entertainment equipment, and China looks to Guangdong,” and leveraging Guangdong’s strategic position as the national core hub for the entertainment equipment sector, the show is widely recognized within the industry as a leading indicator of trends in the global lighting and audio‑visual markets, as well as a pivotal gateway for entertainment equipment companies seeking access to both the Chinese and international markets.
• A one-stop exhibition platform covering the entire industry chain: The event encompasses all key segments of the industry chain, including professional lighting, professional audio, LED displays, conferencing systems, stage special effects, stage machinery, cultural‑tourism equipment, lasers, and more. In 2026, the show will introduce two new zones—the “Recording & Production Zone” (Hall 1.1) and the “Consumer Digital Zone” (Hall 4.1)—focusing respectively on the audio creation ecosystem and the smart audio‑visual consumer market, thereby further expanding the exhibition’s thematic scope. From professional stage equipment to consumer‑grade products, and from hardware to system solutions, exhibitors can seamlessly connect here—from technology showcases and brand exposure to business negotiations.
• Precise matchmaking with global key buyers and distribution channels: The exhibition attracts professional buyer delegations from over 80 countries and regions worldwide. In 2026, it will bring together more than 1,000 renowned industry brands, with an exhibition area exceeding 150,000 square meters across 14 specialized halls. A nationwide, globally‑oriented outreach and invitation strategy has been established, featuring in‑person targeted invitations in over 20 major cities across China, as well as multiple “thousand‑buyer delegations” that gather key purchasing groups such as engineering firms, system integrators, and distributors. Meanwhile, digital technologies enable precision marketing campaigns reaching professional buyers in more than 120 countries and regions worldwide.
• Unique value for Chinese enterprises—strategic engine for expanding domestic and international markets: Guangdong accounts for nearly half of the global entertainment equipment market, boasting a complete industry chain spanning R&D, manufacturing, and services. GETshow serves as the central platform for Chinese entertainment equipment companies to showcase their proprietary technologies, engage with international buyers, and secure overseas orders. Through offline promotional activities at international trade shows in Germany, Thailand, Russia, and other countries, the exhibition continuously strengthens its presence in overseas markets. Chinese enterprises can leverage this platform to directly connect with global procurement decision‑makers and seize early opportunities in the entertainment equipment market.
• Frontier of technological innovation and industry trends: At the show, intelligent lighting control systems, ultra‑high‑definition LED displays, immersive audio systems, and AI‑robotic integration have emerged as hot topics. Notably, the exhibition will debut Version 2.0 of the “Extreme SHOW” immersive light‑and‑shadow space, featuring Zhiyuan robots performing alongside Taiji practitioners and street dancers within a 2,000‑square‑meter installation, vividly illustrating the industry’s transformation from product‑centric offerings toward scenario‑driven “intelligent manufacturing.” The event is actively promoting integrated development of “product + content + service,” providing replicable pathways for industry-wide upgrades.
• In-depth connections between high‑end forums and industry resources: Concurrent with the exhibition, more than a hundred light‑and‑sound shows, forums, and competitions will be held. Key highlights include the “Intelligence in Sound and Light, Empowering the Industry” Entertainment Equipment Industry Summit Forum, bringing together nationally acclaimed directors, top lighting and audio engineers, and stage design experts to share insights into landmark cultural events and flagship cultural‑tourism projects. The fourth “GETshow Cup” Young Stage Lighting Designer Competition and the second “GETshow Cup” Chinese Audio Engineer Competition will attract over 200 participants, including students from leading institutions and young professionals in the field. Additional specialized exchanges include the Dante System Design Optimization Forum and the Networked Unified Architecture Technology Forum.
• Guangzhou’s locational and industrial advantages: The exhibition takes place in Halls A and D of the China Import and Export Fair Complex (Canton Fair Complex) in Guangzhou. As the core agglomeration point for China’s entertainment equipment industry, Guangzhou boasts a fully developed industrial ecosystem and a highly convenient international trade network. The Mayor of Guangzhou personally attended the event to provide guidance, commending GETshow as a crucial platform for advancing high‑quality manufacturing and deepening the integration of science and art. Leveraging Guangzhou’s strategic position as an international trade center, GETshow offers exhibitors a powerful gateway to global markets.
