The 11th edition of Auto Aftermarket Guangzhou (AAG) will take place from 19 to 21 August 2026 at the Poly World Trade Expo Center.
This year’s exhibition space will expand to 85,000 square metres across seven exhibition halls, gathering over 1,800 domestic and international exhibitors. AAG has leveraged its strategic positioning in the Guangdong – Hong Kong – Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA), extending its reach across Southeast Asia as well as markets in Belt and Road countries. Today, the show is one of the most influential automotive aftermarket trade fairs in South China. This year’s edition will feature products and technologies from various clusters of the supply chain, including parts and components, accessories and customising, automobile service, commercial vehicle supplies, remanufacturing and more.
As China enters the 15th Five-Year Plan, national strategies are supporting a transition towards intelligent manufacturing, environmentally-friendly initiatives, and the integration of supply chains within the aftermarket. Guangzhou is located at the intersection of the GBA, where national strategies and industry integration initiatives converge. In this regard, modern supply chains form an important constituent for the up-and-coming powerhouse of South China’s automotive industry, in terms of R&D, intelligent manufacturing and trade.
Guangzhou also offers access to world-class shipping ports, financial and trade networks, and new trading routes linking the city with Hainan’s Free Trade Port. This positioning creates a gateway beyond China to global industry players, while serving as a springboard for international companies to enter the Chinese market. For more than a decade, AAG has supported the development and upgrade of the Southern China and the wider domestic automotive aftermarket through product showcases and encouraging technical exchanges.
Closely aligned with evolving industry trends and sourcing needs, the fair will feature four themed areas, offering refined product categorisation and more targeted business matching to accelerate the integration of technologies, products, services and solutions across the automotive aftermarket.
The show is organised by Messe Frankfurt (Shanghai) and
the China National Machinery Industry International (Sinomachint).
