The iconic Road Transport Expo (RTX) 2026 and Multimodal 2026 are to be major partners in ‘UK Logistics Week’ next year, in a landmark move set to reshape the UK logistics exhibition landscape.
From 30 June to 2 July 2026, UK Logistics Week will take place at both of these major events - at Road Transport Expo 2026, which will take place at NAEC Stoneleigh in Warwickshire, and at Multimodal, which is to be staged at NEC Birmingham.
Shuttle buses will connect the two sites, creating a seamless visitor experience across both venues and attracting a shared audience of more than 25,000 logistics professionals.
Vic Bunby, RTX event director, welcomed the move. He said: “ We are delighted to be a core partner in UK Logistics Week.
“We know that being part of this initiative will not only give our exhibitors an enhanced experience - but all visitors to all the shows will benefit - which can only be good.
“More content, more exhibitors, more networking, and more time efficient for everyone. It’s a win-win.”
Robert Jervis, Multimodal event director, said: “Multimodal has built a trusted, nearly two-decade-long legacy as the premier event for the movement of goods, connecting ports, shipping lines, air freight, rail freight, and the entire freight forwarding community.
“Our 2026 event was already on track to be a record-breaker, welcoming over 13,500 highly engaged visitors and hundreds of exhibitors.
“This collaboration reflects that same drive to excel - it is about enhancing the attendee experience and increasing tangible outcomes for our partners and exhibitors.”
Nairn Foster, MD of the Warehouse 2026 and Yard 2026 exhibitions, both of which are taking place at Multimodal, commented: “UK Logistics Week has been designed to offer unrivalled breadth and depth.
“Spanning every element of the logistics supply chain – from ports, freight, and warehousing to yard management, last-mile delivery and road transport – it gives visitors the ability to see how the entire ecosystem connects.
“Yet it also allows professionals to focus on their specific area of interest, whether that’s automation, fleet innovation, digital transformation, or materials handling. Be seen where the industry gathers. Be part of UK Logistics Week.”
UK Logistics Week will span:
- RTX, the UK’s leading road transport event. Held at NAEC Stoneleigh, this event is firmly established as the premier tradeshow for the road haulage industry. The three day show features over 300 exhibitors, a Ride & Drive experience and a conference, and attracts over 14,000 visitors.
- Multimodal: The established core for freight, transport, supply chain management, and logistics services.
- Warehouse 2026: Focused on warehouse innovation, automation, intralogistics, and operational excellence.
- Yard 2026: The world’s only event dedicated exclusively to yard operations, safety, site flow, and infrastructure.
- E-Delivery Expo (eDX): The new addition under the Multimodal umbrella, targeting last-mile fulfilment, digital delivery innovation, and e-commerce logistics.
The combined platform is projected to offer access to over 30,000 logistics professionals, including an estimated 6,000-plus cross-sector buyers, looking to invest across every single link in the supply chain.
