Before you book
What you actually need to know about Matexpo.
Belgium's biggest construction and earthmoving equipment fair — a mix of indoor halls and a large outdoor exhibition site for heavy machinery.
Traffic & timing
Outdoor demonstration zones pull sustained crowds throughout the day, while indoor halls see more concentrated bursts around opening and closing times — plan static displays and live demos accordingly.
Key deadlines
Plan backwards from move-in.
Ground-bearing & site survey
Confirm outdoor ground conditions with Kortrijk Xpo at least 8 weeks out if displaying heavy equipment.
Weatherproofing sign-off
Approve outdoor structure weatherproofing 6 weeks ahead of build.
Indoor/outdoor identity consistency
Finalise a shared graphic system 5 weeks out if exhibiting across both zones.
Watch-outs
Kortrijk Xpo, not a generic hall.
No weatherproofing plan
An outdoor stand designed like an indoor one won't survive a wet September in Kortrijk.
Ignoring ground-bearing capacity
Heavy equipment on unprepared ground is a safety and logistics risk, not just a design detail.
Disconnected indoor/outdoor identity
Split-site exhibitors who treat the two zones as separate stands lose brand consistency exactly when visitors cross between them.
Underestimating access routes
Getting heavy machinery on and off an outdoor site needs planning well beyond what a standard stand build requires.

Grenvale Earthworks
One identity across an indoor stand and an outdoor equipment yard
Grenvale exhibits both indoors and in Matexpo's outdoor zone. We built a weatherproofed outdoor structure and a matching indoor stand sharing one graphic system, so visitors read it as one brand regardless of which zone they entered from.
One consistent identity across two build environments, zero weather-related downtime.

Frequently asked
Matexpo, answered.
Do you build outdoor stands, not just hall booths?
Yes, outdoor structures with weatherproofing and ground protection are part of our Matexpo work.
Can heavy equipment be displayed safely on our stand?
Yes, we confirm ground-bearing capacity and access as part of the design brief, before committing to a layout.
Can indoor and outdoor stands share one identity?
Yes, that's the default brief we design to for split-site exhibitors.
Exhibiting elsewhere too?
More fairs we build for.
