bauma CONEXPO INDIA is a major international trade fair for construction machinery, building-material machines, mining equipment and construction vehicles, presented by Messe München and the Association of Equipment Manufacturers. Held roughly every two years at the India Expo Centre & Mart in Greater Noida, on the outskirts of the Delhi National Capital Region, it draws hundreds of exhibitors and tens of thousands of visitors from India and abroad across a large indoor-and-outdoor exhibition footprint. It is a business-to-business event for manufacturers, dealers, contractors, engineers and buyers in the construction and infrastructure sector. For a hotel-booking traveller, Greater Noida is a planned satellite city some distance from central Delhi, so accommodation typically clusters in Greater Noida and Noida near the venue, or around Delhi's Aerocity hotel district beside the airport. Choosing a base close to the India Expo Centre reduces a long regional commute across the sprawling capital region during a busy multi-day fair.
Popular areas for attendees: Knowledge Park / Expo Mart area, Greater Noida · Noida Sector 18 · Delhi Aerocity.

From Delhi Indira Gandhi International Airport (DEL)
- Indira Gandhi International (DEL) is the main gateway for the fair, serving Delhi and the wider National Capital Region.
- The India Expo Centre in Greater Noida lies well across the region from the airport; allow a road journey that can take well over an hour depending on traffic.
- Pre-book a taxi or transfer, as the drive to Greater Noida is long and ride availability at the venue can be limited during peak times.
- The Aerocity hotel district sits right beside the airport and is a convenient staging point for fly-in visitors before heading to Greater Noida.
Arriving by rail or metro
- Delhi's extensive metro network connects the city, and the Noida-Greater Noida Aqua Line serves Greater Noida for onward travel toward the venue area.
- Long-distance trains arrive at major Delhi stations such as New Delhi and Hazrat Nizamuddin, from where metro or road transfers continue to Greater Noida.
Getting around during bauma CONEXPO INDIA
Metro and public transit
- The Delhi Metro and the connecting Noida-Greater Noida Aqua Line link the capital region, though stations may still leave a taxi ride to the India Expo Centre.
- Metro is a reliable way to avoid road congestion when travelling between Delhi, Noida and Greater Noida.
- Buy a metro smart card or use mobile ticketing for smoother travel across the network.
Taxis, rideshare and shuttles
- App-based ride-hailing services such as Uber and Ola operate widely across Delhi, Noida and Greater Noida.
- Pre-arranged hotel cars and airport transfers are the most reliable option for the long trip to Greater Noida.
- Check whether the organiser or your hotel runs shuttle buses to the India Expo Centre during the fair.
Visa & entry
e-Visa for eligible travellers
- India offers an e-Visa (including a business category) to nationals of many countries, applied for online in advance of travel.
- Approval arrives electronically before departure, and a business e-Visa is commonly used for attending trade fairs and meetings; apply within the required window before your trip.
Travellers who need a regular visa
- Nationals of countries not covered by the e-Visa scheme must obtain a conventional visa from an Indian mission or authorised visa centre before travelling.
- Start the process early, as documentation and processing for a paper visa can take longer than the online e-Visa route.
Entry rules change; confirm current requirements with the India embassy or official immigration site before booking travel.
First time at bauma CONEXPO INDIA?

Insider tips from repeat attendees
- Staying in Greater Noida or nearby Noida cuts the daily commute dramatically compared with basing yourself in central Delhi.
- Traffic across the region is heavy at rush hour, so travel to the venue early to make the most of the morning.
