About FOAID 2026

FOAID was established as a platform for India's architecture and interior design community, combining professional dialogue with exhibitions, competitions and design-led experiences. The New Delhi and Mumbai editions are structured around displays, discussions, debates, awards and opportunities for professionals and emerging designers to engage with new ideas.

The festival programme includes the Design Arena, CMC Design Manthan, VOX Architecture Ideas, Light First, Expressions, ICA Creative Minds Next, Art Arena and Design Karyashala. These formats expand FOAID beyond a conventional product exhibition by combining material and product discovery with project displays, architecture discussions, student participation and creative installations.

For visitors researching architecture products and design innovation, FOAID's exhibition programme highlights areas ranging from finishes and smart-building technology to lighting, materials, architectural products, installations and built-project presentations.

What Can Visitors Expect at FOAID 2026?

Product and Material Discovery

FOAID's exhibition format is built around product discovery and design innovation. Its exhibition programme highlights luxury finishes, smart-building technologies, materials and other products relevant to architecture and interiors.

Architecture and Interior Design Projects

The Design Arena combines products with architectural and interior-design project showcases, installations and interactive displays. This gives visitors an opportunity to examine both finished solutions and the design thinking behind contemporary projects.

Lighting Innovation

Light First is FOAID's dedicated lighting platform, bringing architectural lighting products and design concepts into a focused pavilion environment.

Conferences and Design Conversations

CMC Design Manthan and other FOAID formats bring practitioners and industry voices together for presentations, discussions and debates around architecture, design practice and the changing built environment.

Student and Emerging-Designer Platforms

FOAID also incorporates competitions and learning formats including VOX Architecture Ideas, Expressions and Design Karyashala, giving students and young designers a route into the wider professional design conversation.

Planning Your Visit to FOAID 2026 New Delhi

FOAID's New Delhi edition is scheduled for Friday, 27 November and Saturday, 28 November 2026 at NSIC Grounds, Okhla. The NSIC Exhibition Complex is located in Okhla Industrial Estate, New Delhi 110020.

Visitors should complete or review their registration through the official FOAID website before travelling. FOAID currently provides registration and exhibition-pass routes through its website, but 2026 New Delhi opening hours, detailed visitor-entry conditions and the final day-by-day programme should be checked again closer to the event, as those details are not yet clearly published for the November 2026 edition on the official pages reviewed.

If you are travelling from outside Delhi, use the official venue name and Okhla Industrial Estate location when planning your route rather than relying on an older event listing.

What Exhibitors Can Expect at FOAID 2026

FOAID is unusually visual even by trade-show standards. Architecture and interior-design audiences assess not only what a brand sells, but also how materials, finishes, lighting and products are presented within a space.

For exhibitors, this makes the stand part of the product experience.

A building-material brand may need large-format samples that can be examined closely. A lighting company may require controlled illumination and electrical planning. A finishes or surface brand may benefit from material walls or application-led displays. Furniture and interior-product exhibitors may need enough open space for visitors to experience products without creating congestion.

Brands should therefore plan the stand around product interaction, specification conversations, visitor circulation and meaningful meetings, rather than treating the booth simply as a branded backdrop.

Exhibiting at FOAID 2026?

Companies exhibiting at FOAID 2026 should define what visitors need to see, touch, compare or discuss before the stand design is finalized.

For architecture and interior-design products, this can mean balancing display density with clean sightlines, creating sample or demonstration zones, planning lighting around materials, integrating screens where they genuinely support the presentation and retaining enough space for conversations with architects, designers and project stakeholders.

The exhibition stand should communicate the brand quickly from the aisle while allowing interested visitors to move deeper into the space and understand the product range without visual clutter.

Exhibition Stall Design & Fabrication Service for Interior and Building Brands at FOAID 2026

Booth Fabricators provides exhibition stand design, fabrication and on-site execution for exhibitors participating in New Delhi and other major trade-show venues.

Support can include:

• booth concept development
• 3D exhibition stand design
• custom structural fabrication
• branding and graphic production
• product-display integration
• lighting and electrical coordination
• installation and on-site execution
• project management
• dismantling after the exhibition

For companies requiring broader Delhi NCR execution support, see Exhibition Stall Fabrication Services in Delhi NCR.

Booth Fabricators lists a Delhi office and warehouse in East of Kailash and states that its structural fabrication work is handled in-house.

Relevant Exhibition Experience in Delhi NCR

Relevant local execution experience matters because exhibition projects involve more than producing an attractive 3D render. Fabrication, transport, finishing, installation sequencing and final handover all need to work within a fixed show-opening deadline.

Booth Fabricators' current portfolio includes a 305 SQM pavilion for the Department of IT & Electronics, Government of Uttar Pradesh at India Electronica 2026 and a 49 SQM J&K Government – JK Karigari stand at Bharatiya Vyapar Mahotsav 2026 at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi. Its portfolio also documents multiple other exhibition builds in Delhi NCR.

The company states that it has 15+ years of exhibition execution experience and that 97% of its projects in 2025 were handed over on or ahead of schedule.
