Vendex North 26, the UK’s premier trade show for vending, unattended retail and automated retail, returns to Doncaster Racecourse on 11 November 2026, bringing together leading suppliers, manufacturers, operators and buyers from across the industry.
The event follows the huge success of Vendex Midlands 2026 in March, which became the largest Vendex show to date by both visitor and exhibitor numbers. With strong demand already building for Doncaster, Vendex North is set to be just as large on both fronts, with only five exhibition stands now remaining for November.
The one-day event will showcase a major cross-section of the vending and unattended retail market, with exhibitors spanning vending equipment, payment technology, coffee, confectionery, snacks, beverages, fresh food, micro markets and connected retail solutions.
At Vendex North 26 visitors will be able to see new products and technology first-hand, compare competing solutions side-by-side and speak directly with the businesses behind them. Many exhibitors will also be using Vendex North to introduce new products and offer special deals available exclusively at the show.
Visitor registration is now open, with industry professionals encouraged to register now for their free place at Vendex North 26.
“Vendex has always been about bringing the industry together and making it easy to do real business in a single day,” said Matthew Derry, Director of Vendex. “Following the record-breaking success of Vendex Midlands in March, we are expecting another exceptionally strong show in Doncaster this November. With only five stands remaining, exhibitor demand has again been extremely strong.”
Vendex has been serving the vending industry since 2003 and has developed a reputation as a focused, highly commercial event attended by vending operators, business owners, senior management, contract caterers, facilities professionals and other industry buyers.
Unlike many larger multi-day exhibitions, Vendex is designed to make the most of one day. Visitors can meet suppliers, see live demonstrations, discover new products and compare solutions without spending several days away from their businesses.
Vendex North 26 is free to attend for business professionals, with free parking at Doncaster Racecourse.
