Exhibiting in Pune: PIECC, Auto Cluster and Show Planning
Pune is Maharashtra’s engineering and automotive hub, with strong IT, auto components and machine tool clusters. Its venues are less crowded than Mumbai’s and costs are lower. Visitors are mostly engineers, procurement heads and SME owners from the Pune–Chakan–Pimpri belt.
Major trade shows in Pune
- Pune Machine Tool Expo (PIECC Moshi): machine tools and manufacturing, held in alternate years.
- Auto Cluster sector shows (Chinchwad): automotive and engineering events held through the year.
- Pune regional events: packaging, food, building materials and IT shows held through the year.
Venue notes for stand builders
Pune International Exhibition and Convention Centre (PIECC) in Moshi is the largest modern venue in the city. The Auto Cluster Exhibition Centre in Chinchwad serves the auto and engineering industry. Both are on the Pune–Mumbai Expressway corridor, which makes freight from Mumbai quick and cost-effective.
Planning checklist before you book
- Use the expressway for freight and plan truck timing around traffic at Pimpri-Chinchwad.
- Design for technical visitors: product demos, spec boards and live samples.
- Check the venue’s rules on welding and drilling during build-up.
- Confirm hotel availability near Moshi or Chinchwad.
- Keep the design modular so it can be reused at Mumbai shows.
