Space Symposium 2026: Where the Global Space Community Comes Together

One investment. One audience.
The entire space ecosystem.

For more than 40 years, the global space community has come together in Colorado Springs for one reason—to connect, collaborate, and shape the future of space.

Space Symposium isn’t just an event. It’s where the entire industry shows up.

At the 40th Space Symposium, thousands of attendees from across the world gathered in one place, representing military, government, commercial, and international organizations. Heads of agencies. Senior military leaders. Global decision-makers. Hundreds of confirmed speakers. One audience you simply can’t replicate anywhere else.

In 2026, that momentum continues—and grows.

Where Commercial Space Meets the Entire Ecosystem

With nearly 170,000 square feet of exhibit space across three exhibit centers, Space Symposium brings every sector of the space industry together under one roof. From startups to prime contractors, policy leaders to commercial innovators, a single presence at Space Symposium delivers exposure across the full global space economy.

And for the 41st Space Symposium, we’re expanding even further with the addition of a third exhibit hall, making Space Symposium larger, more dynamic, and more connected than ever before.

Leadership That Sets Direction

Space Symposium is the only event where the highest levels of senior government officials, military leadership, industry executives, and space experts share announcements, strategies, and insights that shape the year ahead. It is consistently the largest gathering of space community leadership anywhere in the world.

An Industry as Diverse as Space Itself

Attendees span every corner of the space ecosystem, including:
Advanced Manufacturing, Aerospace Systems, Artificial Intelligence, Cybersecurity, Defense, Finance, Satellite Systems, Space Services, Spaceports and Infrastructure, Transportation and Logistics, Research and Development, Government Support, Media, and more.

If space is your business, your audience is here.

Don’t miss your opportunity to represent your organization, gain unmatched visibility, and be part of the global conversation at the 41st Space Symposium, April 13–16, 2026, in Colorado Springs.
