Get ready for DVD2026
The UK’s biennial defence industry exhibition, sponsored by the National Armaments Director Group and Army Headquarters, is back and more crucial than ever. On 16 and 17 September 2026, defence industry, delivery teams, and users of land equipment will meet at UTAC Millbrook for two days of collaboration, innovation and demonstrations.
DVD2026 is the ideal opportunity to showcase your innovation and connect with decision- makers; whether you have a groundbreaking vehicle, a life-saving piece of equipment or a service that revolutionises logistics, this is the place to demonstrate its value. Engage directly with MOD staff, contribute to seminars and workshops and share your expertise to develop real-world solutions for the UK’s armed forces.
MOD Director Land Environment, Major General Lizzie Faithfull-Davies CBE explains:
“DVD is hugely important for defence procurement, encouraging collaboration between industry, army and DE&S as collectively we seek to exploit science and technology to build a more modern and lethal Army.
“The relationships we have with our stakeholders are critical. I am looking forward to engaging with industry, alongside Army HQ and HQ Field Army staff. The event provides a unique opportunity for industry to gain a better understanding of MOD needs, through direct engagement with Army, and insight on DE&S procurement and support issues, as well as industry-to-industry engagement.”
