QME 2026: SHOWCASING THE BEST IN MINING

GET READY FOR LIVE TECHNOLOGY DEMONSTRATIONS, INSIGHTFUL THOUGHT LEADERSHIP, AND A CELEBRATION OF REGIONAL MINING EXCELLENCE.

- 

With calendar set to turn over to a new year, the Queensland Mining & Engineering Exhibition (QME) 2026 is gearing up to return to Mackay as the state's largest regional mining showcase.

Momentum for the 2026 event is building rapidly, with 75 per cent of exhibition space already sold and limited outdoor space remaining.

The strong interest in early bookings is a clear reflection the industry's strong commitment to being part of three days of live technology demonstrations, insightful thought leadership, and a celebration of regional mining excellence.

QME 2026 will bring together hundreds of leading suppliers, with heavyweights such as Milwaukee Tools, Hitachi Construction Machinery, Fulton Hogan, Epiroc, Hastings Deering, Brooks/XCMG, and Flexco Australia already signed on for what promises to be one of the biggest editions yet.

Central to the event's exhibition floor is the return of the highly anticipated QME Mining Pavilion, a vibrant hub where key resources companies and major contractors will showcase their latest projects, innovations and initiatives.

The Mining Pavilion offers attendees a unique opportunity to engage directly with the organisations driving Queensland's mining future, offering insights into procurement and partnership opportunities, and helping build meaningful connections within the thriving resources community.
