About Expo Nacional Ferretera
Expo Nacional Ferretera, the hardware industry's big annual meeting in Mexico, returns to Expo Guadalajara from Thursday 9 to Saturday 11 September 2027.
Organised by RX, it brings together manufacturers, distributors, importers, exporters, hardware stores, tlapalerías (paint and hardware shops) and trade professionals looking for new products, suppliers and deals across the hardware, electrical, construction and specialist retail sectors.
The organiser reports 1,100 exhibitors, more than 50,000 square metres of exhibition space and more than 25,000 industry professionals at the 2025 Guadalajara edition, its 37th. Alongside the stands run hands-on hardware workshops, La Tienda Ferretera, a model shop floor for retailers, and Club Elite, a programme of pre-arranged one-to-one meetings for qualifying buyers.
Expo Guadalajara stands on Avenida Mariano Otero in the west of the city, so Chapalita, the streets around the venue and Providencia are the usual hotel bases. This page shows live Guadalajara hotel rates for the fair dates, which you can change. Visitor registration is handled by the organiser, separately from your hotel, and Event Escapes is independent of RX.

How do you get to Expo Nacional Ferretera?
Flying in: Guadalajara (GDL)
- Guadalajara's Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla International Airport is run by the airport group GAP, which lists authorised taxi services on the ground floor of the terminal, open 24 hours
- Taxis and ride hailing apps are the usual way into the city; the airport does not publish a journey time to Expo Guadalajara, so allow a margin for traffic
- Mexico City has a separate edition of the fair in February (see below), so check you are booking for the Guadalajara edition in September
Arriving at Expo Guadalajara
- The venue's address is Avenida Mariano Otero 1499, Colonia Verde Valle, Guadalajara
- Expo Guadalajara calls itself the largest event venue in Mexico, with more than 90,000 square metres of space to let
- The venue says three public transport stops sit on its forecourt and two more on Avenida Mariano Otero
- There is also a MiBici public bike station (GDL-157) on the forecourt, with 15 docks
How do you get around during Expo Nacional Ferretera?
Getting to the fair each day
- For the 2026 edition, visitor hours were 10:00 to 20:00 on the first two days and 10:00 to 18:00 on the last day; check the 2027 hours before you go
- Exhibitors had access from 08:00 in 2026, and the day before opening was set aside for stocking and cleaning stands
- Ride hailing apps and taxis are the simplest option from Providencia or the historic centre; allow extra time at opening and closing
- Hotels in the streets around the venue let you walk to the halls and skip the queue for cars at the end of the day
Where to stay in Guadalajara
- The area around Expo Guadalajara and Plaza del Sol keeps the trip to the halls short
- Chapalita, Providencia, Lafayette and the Andares area have restaurants, shops and hotels, according to the organisers of another fair held at the venue
- The historic centre suits a longer stay, with Guadalajara's cathedral and Instituto Cultural Cabañas within reach
- Check each hotel's position on the map before you book, as travel times depend heavily on traffic
Do you need a visa for Expo Nacional Ferretera?
Who needs a visa
- Check the current visa rules for your passport before you travel, as Mexico's entry requirements depend on your nationality and can change
- Mexico's consular service publishes the list of nationalities that can visit for tourism or business without a visa
- Travellers of any nationality who hold a valid visa from Canada, Japan, the United States, the United Kingdom or a Schengen country are also exempt, the consulate says, and it notes that an ETA does not count as a visa
If you need a visa
- If your nationality is not on the exempt list and you hold none of those visas or residence cards, apply for a Mexican visitor visa at a Mexican consulate before you travel
- Apply early, and ask the consulate which supporting documents it wants for a business visit
- Immigration officers at the port of entry may ask for documents that show the purpose of your trip, whether or not you needed a visa
Documents to carry
- A passport valid when you enter Mexico and for the whole of your stay; the consulate says Mexico sets no minimum validity beyond that
- The Multiple Migratory Form (FMM), which the airline or the port of entry provides
- For a business visit, a letter in Spanish from your company confirming your employment and that it pays for your services, or an invitation letter, plus your hotel booking and return ticket
Mexico's entry rules depend on your nationality and the purpose of your trip and can change, so confirm the current requirements with Mexico's Secretaría de Relaciones Exteriores or your nearest Mexican consulate before you book.
First time at Expo Nacional Ferretera?
- Register through the organiser's website before you travel; in 2025 the venue listed a charge for visitors who arrived without registering
- Use the online exhibitor directory, product catalogue and floor plan to list the stands you want to see before the first day
- If you come with a budget for a project, apply for Club Elite, the buyer programme with pre-arranged one-to-one meetings; places are subject to the organiser's validation
- The organiser warns exhibitors about fraud on a page of its own, so deal only with the official RX team for stands and services
- Keep your registration confirmation on your phone, and arrive early on the first morning when badge queues are longest
Insider tips from repeat attendees
- The organiser names an official travel agency for hotel reservations; Event Escapes is independent of RX, and you book a named hotel directly with us at the rate shown
- Plan your days around the Talleres Ferreteros, the free hardware workshops, and La Tienda Ferretera, which shows new ways to lay out and run a hardware shop
- Book dinners in Chapalita or Providencia ahead of fair week, when exhibitor teams and buying groups fill the better restaurants
