About CABSAT
CABSAT is an annual trade show in Dubai for media, broadcast, satellite and pro AV technology, covering content creation and virtual production, broadcast and IP workflows, and integrated AV systems. It is organised by inD, a DWTC Informa company, at Dubai Exhibition Centre in Expo City Dubai, and runs alongside SATEXPO for satellite and connectivity and the Contentverse conference on the content business.
CABSAT 2026
CABSAT 2026 runs 5–7 October 2026 in Dubai, United Arab Emirates.
CABSAT is the Middle East and Africa's principal event for broadcast, media, satellite and content delivery — the regional counterpart to the global broadcast-technology circuit, serving broadcasters, streaming platforms, telcos and satellite operators across MEA markets. The exhibition covers production and post-production technology, playout and distribution infrastructure, and satellite communications.
For vendors, the show's value is access to a regional buyer base that the global shows reach only partially.
