IPS 2026 join hands with AIM Congress to be organized at DWTC from 13th to 15th April to showcase properties to investors from 185 countries

Dubai, UAE – The International Property Show (IPS), the MENA region’s longest-running and most established international real estate exhibition, has officially announced its 22nd edition, taking place from 13 to 15 April 2026 at Dubai World Trade Centre.

Now firmly positioned as a global real estate marketplace, IPS 2026 will bring together developers, investors, government authorities, and industry leaders from across the world to connect, collaborate, and transact. The upcoming edition will be held in conjunction with the Annual Investment Meeting (AIM), further strengthening IPS’s role as a meeting point between real estate projects and global capital.

Over more than two decades, IPS has evolved beyond a traditional exhibition. It has become a platform where serious real estate business takes place, supported by government alignment, international participation, and a strong focus on long-term market growth. The 2026 edition is expected to welcome over 300 exhibitors, participants from more than 180 countries, and tens of thousands of visitors, including institutional investors, high-net-worth individuals, policymakers, and global buyers.

Commenting on the announcement, Mr Dawood Al Shezawi, President of the International Property Show, said: “The 22nd edition of IPS reinforces Dubai’s position as one of the world’s most transparent and investor-friendly real estate markets. Our strategic partnership with the Dubai
Land Department, together with the international scale of IPS and our new partnership with AIM, provides global investors and industry leaders with a platform built on trust, confidence, and real value.” Dubai’s continued rise as a global real estate and investment hub makes IPS 2026 particularly timely. With increasing international interest in sustainable urban development, smart cities, and cross-border investment opportunities, IPS provides a trusted environment where stakeholders can explore opportunities with confidence.

A defining feature of IPS is its strategic partnership with the Dubai Land Department, reinforcing the event’s credibility and positioning Dubai as a transparent and investor-friendly market. This partnership ensures that IPS remains aligned with the emirate’s long-term vision for urban development, innovation, and economic growth.

IPS 2026 will also host one of the region’s most influential real estate conference programs, featuring global experts and decision-makers discussing the future of cities, investment trends, technology, and sustainability. Alongside exhibitions, the event will include country pavilions, trade missions, networking platforms, and dedicated zones designed to support meaningful engagement and deal-making.

As the global real estate industry continues to adapt to changing economic conditions, IPS 2026 offers a platform built on experience, credibility, and results. For developers, investors, and industry leaders looking to expand their footprint and connect with serious partners, the International Property Show remains a destination where real opportunities take shape.
