The Manila International Auto Show<\/span><\/span> (MIAS)<\/a> is set to become even bigger in 2026, with organizers confirming the return of the Philippine Trade Training Center<\/span><\/span> (PTTC) as an additional and connected exhibition venue.<\/p>\n

Scheduled from April 9 to 12, MIAS 2026 will continue to hold its main exhibition at the World Trade Center Metro Manila<\/span><\/span> (WTCMM), while expanding into PTTC for the first time since 2018.<\/p>\n

PTTC Returns After Eight Years<\/h4>\n

The last time PTTC served as a secondary venue was during MIAS 2018, held from April 5 to 8 of that year. Since then, the facility underwent redevelopment and repurposing into a design hub. Its reintegration into MIAS 2026 marks a symbolic homecoming for long-time attendees who recall the venue as part of the show\u2019s earlier growth phases.<\/p>\n

The return of PTTC strengthens MIAS\u2019 longstanding partnership with the venue and reflects the continued demand for larger exhibition space as the automotive industry evolves.<\/p>\n

Expanded Exhibition Space and Capacity<\/h4>\n

With PTTC added to the event footprint, MIAS 2026 gains over 3,000 square meters of additional exhibition space. The expansion allows for nearly 100 more vehicle display slots, enabling organizers to accommodate more automotive brands, technology showcases, aftermarket exhibitors, and interactive experiences.<\/p>\n

The PTTC area will also feature a dedicated food court and special exhibits aimed at enhancing the overall visitor experience.<\/p>\n

Combined with indoor and outdoor displays at WTCMM, the total exhibition footprint for MIAS 2026 will reach approximately 22,500 square meters, reinforcing its status as the largest automotive event in the Philippines.<\/p>\n

Seamless Connectivity Between Venues<\/h4>\n

To ensure smooth visitor movement, organizers will install a custom-built, fully air-conditioned linkway connecting the East Wing Annex tent of the World Trade Center directly to the PTTC building.<\/p>\n

Strategically located at the corner of Roxas Boulevard and Sen. Gil Puyat Avenue, PTTC will also function as a convenient entry and exit point. Visitors exiting the PTTC venue can access a free shuttle service transporting them either back to the World Trade Center entrance driveway or to designated nearby parking facilities.<\/p>\n

Supporting a Transforming Automotive Landscape<\/h4>\n

MIAS 2026 aims to provide a comprehensive platform for manufacturers, distributors, and industry stakeholders as the automotive landscape rapidly transforms. Exhibits are expected to highlight electrified mobility, advanced automotive technologies, performance vehicles, lifestyle offerings, and aftermarket innovations.<\/p>\n

The return of PTTC underscores MIAS\u2019 continued commitment to growth, accessibility, and delivering a world-class automotive experience to Filipino car enthusiasts.<\/p>\n

Further announcements regarding participating exhibitors, special attractions, and ticketing details are expected in the coming months.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
